[Results] From the aspect of AIDS health education,35.0% of construction workers only received education before the intervention,improved after intervention,there was significant difference between pre-and post-intervention(χ2a1beforeandafterintervention =75.18,P﹤0.01) . From the educational sites,62.5% of primary school of construction workers received education before intervention. There was significant different among different cultural levels of workers(χ2a2 干预前 =72.7,P﹤0.01) . From educational form,construction workers ob-tained the HIV /AIDS related knowledge,and mainly sourced from television and newspapers and magazines. The requirement for AIDS knowledge among construction workers included prevention knowledge,symptoms and dissemination. [Conclusion] Education level of construction was low among construction workers,there was a certain intervention effect on the AIDS knowl-edge sources and the requirement. In the further AIDS prevention and control,we should focus on this type of people,and it has significant effect on the AIDS prevention and control for the whole society.
