Factors influencing fire accidents in urban complexes: a combined DEMATEL and ISM study.

Fire outbreaks in urban complexes are a major safety concern worldwide. Therefore, this study aims to examine the critical factors that influence fire accidents and their interaction mechanisms in urban settings. A (software factors, hardware factors, environmental factors, parties and other factors, SHEL) model is developed to identify 15 risk factors in four categories affecting fire incidents in urban complexes.

Exploring the intentional unsafe behavior of workers in prefabricated construction based on structural equation modeling.

Compared with traditional onsite construction, prefabricated construction has a more complex working environment, resulting in more safety risks. While cognitive failure has been identified as a primary cause of intentional unsafe behaviors, there remains a lack of knowledge on the formation mechanism underlying intentional unsafe behaviors among workers in precast construction. Using the Theory of Planned Behavior and the risk preference variable, this study constructs a theoretical model for intentional unsafe behaviors of precast construction workers.

Evaluating the Environmental Impact of Construction within the Industrialized Building Process: A Monetization and Building Information Modelling Approach.

Industrialization has been widely regarded as a sustainable construction method in terms of its environmental friendliness. However, existing studies mainly consider the single impact of greenhouse gas emissions or material consumption in the construction process of industrialized buildings, and pay less attention to ecological pollution and community interest, which leads to an insufficient understanding. There is an urgent need to systematically carry out accurate assessment of comprehensive construction environmental impact within industrialized building processes.
