Analysis and control of human errors during structural construction
Abstract
A simulation model of structural construction including the checking process is presented. The main parameters of reinforced concrete structures influenced by construction human errors can be simulated in this model. A structural reliability analysis method is also proposed in this paper, which takes the combined human errors into account. Using the present method, the efficiency of different control measures to control the human errors is analyzed. A satisfied control scheme to achieve an reasonable failure probability can be decided through the analyses and proposed program. Sensitivity of structural resistance to human errors that influences the structural parameters and the occurring possibility of human errors is used to choose the key control points of human errors. Finally, an example is shown.
