Using safety climate as a tool for improvement of safety performance in construction organisations (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Umar, T., & Wamuziri, S. (2016). Using safety climate as a tool for improvement of safety performance in construction organisations. In Y. Sandanayake, G. Karunasena, & T. Ramachandra (Eds.), The 5th World Construction Symposium 2016: Symposium Proceedings (545-554)

Data from a number of industrialized countries show that construction workers are 3 to 4 times more likely than other workers to die from accidents at work. In the developing world, the risks associated with construction work may be 3 to 6 times grea...

Strength analysis of concrete (300/20) with superplasticizer (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Umar, T., & Wamuziri, S. (2016). Strength analysis of concrete (300/20) with superplasticizer. In M. Mohatram (Ed.), Proceedings. International Conclave on Innovations in Engineering & Management (Oman Vision 2020 : Opportunities & Challenges) (162-167)

Admixtures are used in concrete to obtain some specific properties to enhance the performance of concrete. In this research concrete of a specific grade (300/20) with a superplaticizer Ha Ba has been selected to enhance the reliability on the use of...
