Investigating Optimism about and Impediments to BIM Implementation in Construction Safety Management: Asian Perspectives
https://orcid.org/0009-0003-0521-8367
This paper unveils insights from a thorough investigation into implementing building information modeling (BIM) into construction safety management practices across Asian countries. The study involved 192 randomly surveyed respondents from Japan, the Philippines, Thailand, China, Singapore, Myanmar, and Indonesia to assess their utilization of BIM and its application in construction safety planning and implementation. The questionnaire revealed that 61% of respondents had used BIM; however, only 20% of this subset had used BIM to enhance construction safety. While an encouraging 90% of respondents expressed a positive opinion of BIM as a potential tool for mitigating construction accidents, qualitative analysis of their remarks unveiled challenges hindering effective implementation. This investigation sheds light on the gap between recognizing BIM’s potential in enhancing construction safety and the practical challenges hindering its widespread adoption in the Asian construction industry. The insights from this study can inform policy, education, and industry practices to address the identified barriers and facilitate the successful implementation of BIM in managing safety in construction.
This research offers valuable guidance to construction firms in Asia or those operating in Asian countries, aiding them in informed decision-making and the adoption of building information modeling (BIM) for enhanced on-site construction safety. Policymakers can use the findings to shape or update construction safety standards and integrate BIM technologies effectively. The study is a resource for professional training, addressing both optimistic factors and challenges in BIM implementation, specifically tailored for the nuances of Asian construction safety. Technology providers, such as BIM software developers, are encouraged to refine products to address region-specific challenges, improving safety management. The comprehensive analysis of impediments informs risk mitigation strategies for BIM implementation. Lastly, focusing on Asian perspectives promotes cross-cultural collaboration among construction professionals, facilitating the exchange of best practices. In summary, this research is a practical guide for construction professionals, educators, policymakers, and technology developers, contributing to the safe and effective implementation of BIM practices in Asian construction projects.
