Building Information Modeling or Construction Safety Planning
Construction is the most risky industry in term of the number of work-related fatalities. In 2008, 780 fatalities resulted from construction accidents, and cost the industry approximately $15.6 billion in U.S. annually. The design for safety (DfS) concept roots in the design and planning phase with focus on making vital choices about various design options, different ways of construction and materials used according to construction safety considerations. Design for safety tools raise the designer's skill and knowledge to identify hazards. Building Information Modeling (BIM) is the most recent technology for Computer Aided Design (CAD) tools which can be used for safety planning and DfS concept. BIM and visualization tools create opportunities to assist design teams to identify hazardous situations. The main aim of this paper is to show that the integrated design and collaborative features of BIM can be used in enhancing safety on construction sites and developing utilization of BIM for safety planning. 53% of the respondents to a qualititative survey, with 62 completed instruments, believed that visualization tools have more positive effects on improving construction safety in comparison to the other current tools for DfS. BIM have a unique ability to integrate into the safety management and to support prevention through design concept. There is an essential need to document BIM's capabilities and advantages, in order to expand the application of these technologies in safety management.
