PROFESSIONAL CERTIFICATE

Safety Engineering and Buildability for Infrastructure Projects 



Introduction

Safety engineering and buildability are an integral process for the development of any infrastructure projects. From early inception of an infrastructure project, the concept of safety must be borne in mind from broad approach to minor detailing . This is a project management technique to review construction process from start to finish during pre-construction phase in order to identify any safety obstacles before a project is actually built to reduce or prevent accident. The term “Buildability” defines the ease and efficiency with which structures can be built in a safe manner. It cannot be over-emphasized such importance. The more buildable an infrastructure project is, the more economical it will be. Safety and buildability are in part a reflection of the quality of the design documents, that is to say, if the design document is difficult to understand and interpret, the project will be difficult to build and vice versa.

Content

With the aid of video and power point, the presentation for this course will be conducted in 4 consecutive sessions (3 hours each) covering the following issues:

1. Construction safety legislations in Hong Kong by highlighting the legal instruments for Cap 59, Cap 509 together with in-depth explanation of Construction Site (Safety) Regulations.

 

2. Understanding of construction accidents, its theories, causation investigation and prevention together with illustration and sharing of various real court cases.

 

3. Construction Design Management (CDM) and Processes including design for safety and pitfalls.

 

4. Assessment of safety and buildability by looking into the four elements of safety engineering, planning, design and construction as illustrated in the chart below in relation to :

 

a. Achieving the desired final quality and the safety standard

b. Meeting the programme requirement

c. De-risking perceived problems

d. Achieving optimum value for money.

5. The engineering aspect of safety and buildability of various infrastructure projects will be presented covering bridges , highways, railways and buildings etc.
