Abstract
Too many workers are exposed to injury and death in the construction industry each year, due either to the weakness and neglect of the application of health and safety measures or weaknesses in the identification of risks related to the construction site. The approach to safety risk assessment and the development of site safety plans is based on 2D drawings and handwritten, fragmented and uncoordinated notes. BIM is characterized by its ability to create a virtual environment similar to reality based on concepts of visualization and simulation. The purpose of this research is to study how this technology can be used in Iraqi construction industry to identify risks at different project stages and to find appropriate mitigation strategies. The results of comparing the site safety plan by using a traditional method with the BIM technique showed that the BIM technique is more accuracy in management and analysis of the work site. Finally, the BIM technology showed that the application of the safety measures in site will increase the duration of the project by (3.66%). Analytical study.
