Abstract:

If all data, records, checklists and photographs accumulated during quality checks and labor safety inspections at construction sites are not systematically arranged, stored and tracked. The status of improvements is not confirmed and tracked in a timely manner, not only will engineering quality and construction safety be influenced but work load at construction sites will increase. In view of the above scenario, development of a quality control (QC) and risk management system is a matter of priority. The quality control and risk management system we developed focuses on streamlining time and human resources at construction sites to reduce costs, and improve the quality of construction and health and safety practices. In a plan-do- check-action (PDCA) cycle, the system passed efficiently the two procedures, check, and action, to improve the implementation capability in construction sites and competitiveness in the market.
