Ibrahim Ali Abograra Nasar | Hassan Hossin Jbril Masoud
Abstract: Construction safety in high-rise buildings presents unique challenges due to their complex nature, height, and the involvement of multiple trades and equipment. This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the key safety concerns associated with high-rise construction, focusing on fall hazards, structural stability, material handling, and fire risks. The study explores current safety practices, regulatory frameworks, and innovative technologies aimed at mitigating risks in these environments. Through case studies and data analysis, the paper identifies common safety lapses and proposes strategies for enhancing safety management systems. Recommendations include the integration of advanced monitoring systems, comprehensive safety training programs, and stricter enforcement of safety standards. The findings underscore the importance of proactive safety planning, real-time hazard detection, and stakeholder collaboration in ensuring the safety of construction workers and the structural integrity of high-rise buildings.
