Application of Bim in construction site safety: Systematic review.

Abstract

Construction safety has become and establishment ever since decades. Construction industry especially workers involve in many activities that may expose them to serious hazards. However, with the transformation of current development in technology, safety has become vital especially the needs in improvement of its application on site via digitalization. The exploration on the needs of safety especially in Building Information Modelling has become crucial and there is a need for the application especially the digital twin. The construction industry needs to improve the safety performance by new technology. Building Information Modeling is one of the technologies that are being explored recently. Hence, this paper aims to obtain a comprehensive review especially on the current trend of analysis based on current practice of emerging technology that applied in current practice. Methodology of this paper by info analysis and VOS Viewer. There were 11 different terms were used to obtain the relevant literature including Scopus, Google and books guideline. After data cleaning, there's almost 371 journal articles reviewed in between Jan 2011 and Aug 2021. There are 4 steps of framework being proposed which are analysis on the source of title, researcher, co-occurrence keyword and discussion. Hence from the results of co-occurrence based on the results shows that 21 keywords, as for the researcher were top 10 highlighted. It can be concluded that Building Information Modeling (BIM) and safety construction has the most citation for the current trend of research. Besides it is expected that this study has the potential outcome of research as references for next study on BIM and safety.
