Strategic safety management in construction and engineering
Although the construction and engineering sector makes important contributions to the economic, social, and environmental objectives of a nation, it has a notorious reputation for being an unsafe industry in which to work. Despite the fact that safety performance in the industry has improved, injuries and fatalities still occur frequently. To address this, the industry needs to evolve further by integrating safety into all decision making processes.
Strategic Safety Management in Construction and Engineering takes a broad view of safety from a strategic decision making and management perspective with a particular focus on the need to balance and integrate 'science' and 'art' when implementing safety management. The principles covered here include the economics of safety, safety climate and culture, skills for safety, safety training and learning, safety in design, risk management, building information modelling, and safety research methods and the research-practice nexus. They are integrated into a strategic safety management framework which comprises strategy development, implementation, and evaluation. Practical techniques are included to apply the principles in the context of the construction and engineering industry and projects. Case studies are also provided to demonstrate the localised context and applications of the principles and techniques in practice.

Exploration on the Development Mode of Engineering Management Informatization in BIM Times
In order to speed up the construction of project management informatization in China, we have investigated and studied the Internet-based information platform and characteristics of project management in Europe and the United States. The author creatively puts forward the overall goal, design principle and technical framework of engineering management informatization in China. And then this paper points out that the ideal path for integrating BIM GIS into CIM, which will support the construction of intelligent city. Through the research and judgment of government organization, construction main body and commercial platform R&D mode, we must seize the historical opportunity of informatization and promote the transformation and upgrade of enterprises. Only in this way, can we improve the level of government administration and promote the reform development of construction industry in our country.
