Περίληψη: | The construction industry has long been recognized for its complex safety regulations, which are essential to ensure the well-being of on-site employees. However, navigating these regulations and ensuring compliance can be challenging due to the volume and complexity of the documents involved. This study proposes a novel approach to extracting information from construction safety documents utilizing Large Language Models (LLM), called CSQA, to provide real-time, precise answers to queries related to safety regulations. The approach comprises three modules: (1) the construction safety investigation module (CSI) collects safety regulations for building the information needed. By leveraging a collection of safety regulation PDFs, the system follows a process of text extraction, preprocessing, and global indexing for efficient search. (2) The safety condition identification module (SCI) retrieves the CSI database; after that, the LLM, with its extensive training, processes user queries, searches the indexed regulations, and retrieves pertinent information. (3) the safety information delivery (SID) would provide the answer to the user and incorporate a feedback mechanism to further refine system accuracy based on user responses. Preliminary evaluations reveal the system's superior performance over traditional search engines, owing to its ability to grasp query context and nuances. The CSQA presents a promising method for accessing safety regulations, with potential benefits including reduced non-compliance incidents, enhanced worker safety, and streamlined regulatory consultations in construction
