Most of Canada’s municipal infrastructure, including bridges, was built between the 1950s and 1970s. With design lives of 50-100 years, many of these structures are due for major rehabilitations or replacements. With the growing costs of deteriorating infrastructure, the cost savings from...

Dias Ferreira Barkokébas, Regina Celi
In construction manufacturing, components (e.g., panels or modules) are produced in a factory environment before being transported and installed in a construction site. In this context, two distinct operational phases are observed: factory, accounting for 60%–90% of the tasks that would typically...

Vision-assisted behavior-based construction safety: Integrating computer vision and natural language processing
DownloadFall 2023
Background: Construction sites can be hazardous places. Behavior-based safety is a method to optimize workers’ behaviors and improve site safety. Previous behavior-based safety has been criticized for their low efficiency because of manual observation. The community has conducted enormous studies...

Vision-based Tracking of Worker Trajectories in Built Workplaces for Safety and Health Study
DownloadFall 2016
Construction sites are the place where personnel and equipment work closely. In such workplaces, human movement dynamically adapts to the surrounding circumstances which are congested and continually changing. Acquisition of worker trajectories and measurement of physical value of workplaces,...
