Abstract
In the fields of architecture and civil engineering, construction is a process that consists
of the building or assembling of infrastructure. Far from being a single activity, large
scale construction is a feat of multitasking. Normally the job is managed by the project
manager and supervised by the construction manager, design engineer, construction
engineer or project architect and also all the workers in site and the equipment and also
the machine. In construction site, the relationship between the human and machine is
very important.
The heavy machinery always used in non-heavy and heavy construction. The
example of heavy machinery is such as tower crane, mobile crane, excavator, backhoe,
lorry, dozer and many more. The heavy machinery job is doing earthwork, transport
material and so on. Heavy machinery is handled by human and called operator. A good
operator will give good operational to heavy machinery. A good operational of heavy
machinery will give safety to construction site.
This study is on the operational and safety of heavy machinery in construction
site. The study will be focus on the heavy machinery and its operator, where to know
how the operator handling the machinery, to know the maintenance of the heavy
machinery and also the safety of heavy machinery. An operational knowledge of the
heavy machinery is very important. The operational heavy machinery is always close to
the safety in site. To determine the heavy machinery operational and safety, site survey
carried out to several construction which relevant to research or study.
