Abstract

This research focuses on scientometric knowledge mapping and trend analysis of three-dimensional concrete printing (3DCP). It is a study based on South African perspectives, and the extracted bibliographic data are from the Scopus and Web of Science databases for the periods of 2015 and 2025. Fifty (50) articles were analysed using performance indicators and science mapping methods to investigate publication trends, key sources, affiliations, funding agencies, and research themes related to 3D concrete printing construction materials. The results reveal a marked increase in publication output related to digital construction and additive manufacturing technologies, particularly from 2020 onwards, reflecting increased scholarly attention at both the national and global levels. There is a strong alignment with sustainable development goals 9, 11, and 12 with the bibliographic data through keyword co-occurrence, revealing varying research emphasis. Approximately 10% of the studies focused on printable concrete sustainability, 20% on rheology, 30% on numerical modelling, 40% on sustainability, 50% on performance, 60% on interlayer bond strength, and up to 70–80% on material innovations, including supplementary cementitious material and alternative binders. The research output of South Africa is driven primarily by research-intensive universities and national science institutions, such as Stellenbosch University, the University of Johannesburg, the University of the Witwatersrand, and the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research. These efforts are supported by funding from the Department of Science and Innovation, National Research Foundation, South African Research Chairs Initiative, and European Commission-funded collaborations. These findings provide evidence to inform future research and policy on sustainable digitally enabled construction materials; however, significant knowledge gaps still remain in areas such as durability, standardization, and large-scale implementation.

Abstract

Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems (OHSMS) represent a managerial approach designed to protect workers from occupational accidents and work-related diseases, thereby creating a safe, efficient, and productive working environment. Nevertheless, the increasing number of occupational accidents in Indonesia, as reported by the Social Security Administration for Employment, indicates that the implementation of such systems continues to face significant challenges in practice. The primary issue addressed in this study is the limited understanding of hazard potential, the level of occupational risk, and the effectiveness of risk supervision and control in building construction projects. Therefore, this research aims to analyze the implementation of the Occupational Health and Safety Management System, identify high-risk construction activities, and evaluate the factors contributing to potential workplace accidents in the Landmark BSI (Bank Syariah Indonesia) Building Construction Project in Aceh. This study employed a quantitative approach supported by statistical analysis. Primary data were collected through field observations, questionnaire surveys administered to respondents, and project documentation, while secondary data included project organizational structures and workforce information. The findings reveal that the implementation of occupational health and safety management practices in the Landmark BSI Aceh Building Construction Project can be categorized as relatively effective, as evidenced by the execution of hazard identification procedures, safety protocols, and risk control measures. However, improvements are still required in terms of supervision, consistency of implementation, and the strengthening of safety culture to sustainably minimize the potential for workplace accidents.

Abstract

Accurate estimation of follow-up headway is fundamental for the operational analysis of urban roundabouts, especially in regions with heterogeneous traffic. This study presents a field-based approach to determining follow-up headway at three typical multilane roundabouts in Gombe metropolis, Nigeria, utilizing unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) video surveys and rigorous manual data extraction. The 50th percentile method was applied to determine operational headway values for each roundabout. The results indicate a mean follow-up headway of 2.01 seconds, with site-specific values of 2.02 seconds (Central Roundabout), 2.20 seconds (Dukku Park Roundabout), and 1.80 seconds (Union Bank Roundabout), reflecting the combined influence of local geometry, driver behavior, and traffic composition. Variability between the sites highlights the importance of local context, as geometric complexity and the traffic characteristics affect headway selection. These findings reinforce the limitations of adopting foreign default values for capacity analysis in Nigerian settings. The study recommends adopting locally measured parameters in the capacity analysis of roundabouts with simulation and analytical tools such as the Highway Capacity Manual Models. The empirical results provide evidence-based direction for roundabout design and policy in rapidly urbanizing African cities.

Abstract

Chattogram City Corporation (CCC), the principal port city and second largest urban economy in Bangladesh, is increasingly vulnerable to monsoon flooding, tidal backwater from the Karnaphuli River and Bay of Bengal, unplanned urbanization, and deterioration of natural drainage canals (khals). This study develops an integrated Geographic Information System (GIS) and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) framework to assess flood risk across the 41 wards of CCC and examine its association with household level vulnerability and public health outcomes. Seven biophysical and anthropogenic criteria: elevation, proximity to rivers/khals, drainage congestion, rainfall intensity, land use/imperviousness, slope, and population density were standardized, weighted using Saaty’s 1–9 scale, and integrated through weighted linear overlay. The resulting pairwise comparison matrix produced a principal eigenvalue (λmax) of 7.130 and a consistency ratio (CR) of 0.016, indicating acceptable weighting consistency. Approximately 43.6% of CCC was clas-sified as having High or Very High flood risk, concentrated mainly in low lying wards of the central and southwestern areas. Questionnaire data from 360 households indicated significantly higher prevalence of waterborne diarrheal disease, skin infections, and psychological distress in Very High risk wards than in Low risk wards. The July 2026 record rainfall event, which af-fected approximately 450,000 people in the greater Chattogram area, further demonstrated the practical   relevance of the risk map, with reported waterlogging hotspots broadly corresponding to High and Very High risk zones. The findings support integrated structural, non structural, and building scale interventions, alongside policy measures and future applications of remote sensing, machine   learning, and participatory governance to strengthen urban flood resilience.
