Abstract

Le chantier est un monde vivant, dynamique et bouillonnant. Parler d'administration, de comptabilité, de gestion d'un chantier n'est pas un terrain d'enquête sec et désincarné : c'est parler des hommes qui portent les processus, qui produisent la documentation, mais également des ouvriers et de leurs liens avec les agents administratifs. Le chantier ne se rythme pas seulement aux seuls bruits des pics et des pioches : rapport, mémoire d'expertises, contrôle, validation, inspection, compte rendu... autant de rouages dans la mécanique de prise de décision économique et politique. Selon une analyse des forces et faiblesses des environnements, les chantiers avaient de fortes capacités d'adaptation et de réponse aux exigences des contextes.

Abstract

This book provides an analysis of the origin and effect of human errors in engineering. Using cases from everyday construction and large-scale accidents, the circumstances associated with the creation of errors are illustrated, along with strategies for their prevention, with the goal to eventually minimize cost overruns, delays, and accidents. The book features a discussion of the circumstances related to error proneness, the review of some sixty mishaps or near misses from real-life construction, the systematic analysis of 238 large-scale accidents in engineering systems, the perspective of psychology on the origin of faulty human performance, and a review of the relation of management to error proneness.
