Journal Article
Poghosyan, A., Manu, P., Mahamadu, A., Akinade, O., Mahdjoubi, L., Gibb, A., & Behm, M. (2020). A web-based design for occupational safety and health capability maturity indicator. Safety Science, 122, Article 104516. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ssci.2019.104516

It has been established that design contributes to the occurrence of occupational injuries and illnesses in the construction sector. This has resulted in the need for designers to implement design for occupational safety and health (DfOSH), which is...

Design for occupational safety and health: Key attributes for organisational capability (2019)
Journal Article
Manu, P., Poghosyan, A., Mahamadu, A., Mahdjoubi, L., Gibb, A., Behm, M., & Akinade, O. (2019). Design for occupational safety and health: Key attributes for organisational capability. Engineering, Construction and Architectural Management, 26(11), 2614-2636. https://doi.org/10.1108/ECAM-09-2018-0389

Purpose: Against the backdrop of the contribution of design to the occurrence of occupational injuries and illnesses in construction, design for occupational safety and health (DfOSH) is increasingly becoming prominent in the construction sector. To... Read More about Design for occupational safety and health: Key attributes for organisational capability.

Development of a design for occupational safety and health capability maturity model (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Manu, P., Poghosyan, A., Mahamadu, A., Mahdjoubi, L., Gibb, A., Behm, M., & Akinade, O. (2018). Development of a design for occupational safety and health capability maturity model. In F. Emuze, M. Behm, D. B. Costa, & T. A. Saurin (Eds.), Joint CIB W099 and TG59 International Safety, Health, and People in Construction Conference (93-102)

Design for occupational safety and health (DfOSH) is growing in prominence in the construction sector. Consequently, designers (as individuals or organisations) are expected to mitigate occupational health and safety risks through design. In order fo...

A BIM based approach for optimization of construction and assembly through material selection (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Gbadamosi, A., Mahamadu, A., Manu, P., Akinade, O., Sierra, F., Lam, T. T., & Alzaatreh, A. (2018, June). A BIM based approach for optimization of construction and assembly through material selection. Paper presented at Creative Construction 2018, Ljubljana, Slovenia

During the design phase of construction projects, professionals seldom consider implications of design choices in terms of the ease with which it can be constructed. This contributes to wastage when chosen design features and materials result in the... Read More about A BIM based approach for optimization of construction and assembly through material selection.
