Evaluation Modeling for Construction Safety Management with Multi-Criteria Decision Support System

Article Preview

Abstract:

Owing to the increasing complexity in the construction safety management, integrating experts' knowledge and experiences to make appropriate decisions is a commonly used method. Decision making problem is the process of finding the best option from all of the feasible alternatives. In this paper, non-structural fuzzy decision support system (NSFDSS) was applied in the prioritization of evaluation criteria based on some additional advantages identified. Finally, a numerical example which was drawn from the national standard in China is used to illustrate the procedure of the proposed approach.
