Utilising BIM in Construction Safety Planning: A Systematic Review
The construction industry is always associated with hazards. According to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), the construction sector accounts for the most considerable amount of fatal injuries. Technology can overcome such issues by enhancing safety at construction sites. Building information modelling (BIM) is an upcoming concept and is gaining popularity in the construction industry. Attempts have been made to summarise the application of BIM in safety, but studies have not summarised it systematically. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to review the existing knowledge of BIM in construction safety and identify the gaps in existing studies. A systematic review was conducted on the articles published from 2009 to 2020. For the study, three topics were selected, including BIM for construction safety, prevention through design (PtD), and automated rule-based checking. The findings observe that BIM allows to identify the hazards and mitigate them before the construction commences. Additionally, a significant number of accidents are linked with the design and safety issues can be assessed automatically using BIM in the design phase. Therefore, the use of BIM can improve the safety performance of the construction industry.
