An Intelligent Risk Assessment System for AEC

Risk assessment is an important part of the project delivery process in the construction industry. It is often carried out individually by the various disciplines involved in a construction project. As the industry moves towards more collaborative working practices, it is vital that tools are available which enable risk assessment to be collaboratively undertaken.
