Despite significant advances in Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology for construction planning, existing technology still lack the capabilities of planning and analyzing temporary structures. While temporary structures such as scaffolding and temporary stair towers significantly impact construction safety, they often do not appear in BIM. Temporary structure objects manually inserted into BIM cannot automatically generate information of their impact on construction safety. Understanding this deficiency, this research attempts to generate required temporary structures and analyze associated safety risk automatically. Specifically, this research focused on planning of temporary stair towers used during roof construction activities. For automation, a set of algorithms were created that analyze geometric conditions in BIM, generate required temporary stair towers, and analyze their impact on safety. The algorithms were imbedded into a commercially-available BIM platform and tested on an ongoing construction project. As a result, optimized locations and shapes of temporary stair towers and associated potential safety hazards were identified and visualized in BIM and schedule. The main contribution of this research would be to automatically perform more practical construction safety planning by incorporating temporary structures.

The modern technologies are widely implemented in construction market including building information modeling (BIM) whitch is rapidly developing in many management segments related to design, construction, and building operation. BIM technologies are being used more and more by architects, engineers, surveyors, builders, contractors, subcontractors, construction manufacturers and building administrators who need to work together to simplify workflow and ensure that all design, construction and building operations are effective. BIM is already in use in Lithuania, but many construction market participants and mostly the customer still think that BIM is too expensive for Lithuanian construction market. The aim of this study is to analyze the benefits, opportunities, limitations, chalanges and obticles of using the BIM methodology for typical dwelling building projects. The results of resreach are based on detail payback assessment of BIM methodology use in small-scale projects and small business companies is delivered in the conclusions.

“…BIM is a construction management tool widely used in the construction industry, mainly to visualize buildings and analyze construction plans manually (26) or automatically. (27) Environmental information has not been incorporated extensively in BIM. Developing customized dashboards and visual summaries is a technically feasible way of helping construction superintendents to better use the results of real-time dust monitoring.…”

Construction activities, involving cutting, drilling, and grinding of materials, often produce toxic respirable dust that can cause fatal diseases and illnesses. To protect workers from breathing excessive amounts of respirable dust at job sites, superintendents should continuously monitor the level of respirable dust in workspaces and make timely interventions for overexposed workers. However, current practices of respirable dust monitoring have critical drawbacks, and superintendents cannot accurately estimate workers' exposures to respirable dust or make prompt decisions to protect the workers. Therefore, there is a need for real-time air dust monitoring that can be deployed ubiquitously at a construction site and be integrated as part of daily construction management. In this research, we developed a real-time dust monitoring system that comprises a network of low-cost mobile dust sensors and visualization in building information modeling (BIM). Single-board computers and dust sensors were integrated as field deployment units. Inaccurate sensors were calibrated automatically on the basis of an accurate ground truth sensor. A BIM-based visualization system was developed to present the data collected from dust sensors in real time. A prototype system was developed and tested in a controlled environment.
