%X Due to the increasing rates of urbanisation and the ever growing urban population, it is inferable that the demand on multi-story construction industry will continue to increase. In Australia, having an urban population of approximately 21 million, equivalent to 90% of the total population, the construction industry is a key driver and contributes to approximately 7.8% of the country’s GDP in value added terms, where issues regarding quality control, reduced workplace productivity, onsite safety, skilled labour shortages, rising costs and environmental impacts are of great concern.
