Given the fact that the risk of construction accidents is higher than that of other industries, various academic attempts have been made to predict the risk of construction accidents. However, previously proposed risk prediction models have been limited to monotonous calculation methods based on risk frequency and risk severity. This study aimed to develop a new model that predicts risk by identifying risk factors for the specific type of construction projects and assigning weights to each of these factors. As a foundational research, this study conducted an empirical study using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) techniques. The AHP technique was used to determine the importance and weights of each risk factor. These empirical results are significant in that they can be utilized to develop rational alternatives for predicting construction accident risks in the specific type of construction projects.
