Abstract
Environments of the building operations are bad and vocational damnifications are severe in our country. This paper probes into the actuality of the man–machine–environment system from the three aspects of human, machine and environment for the building operations in our country. And designs the evaluation index system, evaluates the validity of the man–machine–environment system. The evaluation result shows that the whole validity of the man–machine–environment system is common. And the urgent problems are manifested by the laborers’ technology level of building operation, the validity of the small manual or power machines and tools, climate and dust conditions. This paper also suggests that construction enterprises should cooperate with talents cultivation institutions and take part in the development and production progress of machines and tools, etc.
