This course is to develop students' in-depth understanding on the management of construction workforce. Specifically, this course will tackle worker safety and ergonomics, a chronic problem of the construction industry, teaching a range of theories, practices, and potential smart technologies for the management of worker safety and ergonomics (e.g., unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), proximity sensor, inertial measurement unit (IMU), computer vision, and deep neural network (DNN)). Topics discussed include: 1) introduction to construction workers, trades, and unions; 2) fundamentals on construction labour laws, regulations, and insurances; 3) accident and ergonomics theories; 4) onsite measures for safety and ergonomics management; and 5) advanced sensing technologies for automated safety monitoring.
