Description
Summary:Globally, the prevention of falls in construction is always challenging to contracting organizations. A web-based safety knowledge management (KM) system, SAFEFORM, was developed to prevent falls during vertical formwork operations in Indian construction projects. The purpose of this study was to conduct a usability analysis for SAFEFORM using a system usability scale (SUS). Fifteen potential end users were targeted to evaluate the SAFEFORM. The results indicated that the respondents considered SAFEFORM excellent and acceptable. It is expected that the SAFEFORM could assist users in preventing falls during vertical formwork operations in Indian CPs and enhance overall safety performance.
