Abstract |
Government data indicated plans to establish a smart construction technology roadmap to revitalize the construction industry, including a
mandate to apply BIM in all public projects by 2030. Consequently, the use of BIM in design, construction, and maintenance is expected to
expand gradually across domestic construction sites. As buildings grow larger and more complex with BIM, the range of construction
equipment and materials involved has also increased, heightening the risk of safety accidents for workers. To address these concerns, BIM is
being introduced for construction site safety control, alongside the strengthening of the Serious Accident Punishment Act to prevent recurring
safety incidents. However, challenges arise due to a shortage of specialized personnel. Additionally, the use of different software at each site
complicates standardization, highlighting the need for a unified BIM module. In this study, a module was developed using Dynamo, a visual
coding programming language, to visualize safety information for major accident-causing objects at BIM construction sites without the need
for additional add-ons. To assess whether the module contributes to reducing safety accidents, it was applied at a testbed construction site for
verification. This approach allows for the visualization of user-centered hazardous object information, providing a decision-making tool for
safety management, even at smaller sites lacking comprehensive BIM safety systems. |
