Construction Safety: Economics and Informatics Perspectives

This book covers the economics of construction safety, such as the asymmetric information of different construction practitioners in Hong Kong, studies feminism in Australia’s traditionally male-dominated construction industry, and researches an efficient Small-Scale Contractors’ construction health and safety performance management in Zambia. It also constructs the risk rating matrix and assesses occupational hazards identification and risk Assessment in Kaligandaki’s Construction Project. Besides, it throws light on construction safety informatics, such as scaffolds safety via rule-based safety checking and BIM. It compares safety awareness in academic databases in construction, manufacturing, traffic, and health and food industries. It studies construction, real estate hazard, and urban renewal hazard articles indexed on the Web of Science. It conducts a systematic literature review on safety culture. Lastly, it reviewed refurbishment and demolition work in Hong Kong’s legal databases.

  • Publisher: Routledge

This book explores how econometric modelling can be used to provide valuable insight into international housing markets. Initially describing the role of econometrics modelling in real estate market research and how it has developed in recent years, the book goes on to compare and contrast the impact of various macroeconomic factors on developed and developing housing markets. Explaining the similarities and differences in the impact of financial crises on housing markets around the world, the author's econometric analysis of housing markets across the world provides a broad and nuanced perspective on the impact of both international financial markets and local macro economy on housing markets. With discussion of countries such as China, Germany, UK, US and South Africa, the lessons learned will be of interest to scholars of Real Estate economics around the world.
