Construction Industry is one of the ever-growing as well as dangerous industries today. It is the job of every construction company to keep the workers as safe as possible. Thanks to technological advancements like BIM (Building Information Modeling), it has become very convenient for these companies to improve their overall safety. BIM Model makes it possible for builders to analyze the overall construction site safety and design.
BIM uses varies from company to company across the different sectors. Using BIM, a construction project management software can help improve the overall safety of the project by providing you with the following information –
Virtual on-site conditions
Through BIM Construction Model, you can get a clear visual understanding of the project and site that you are planning to work on before the construction begins. This helps you determine whether the site is safe to start working and if not, what precautions & safety measures one needs to put in place. So, in simple words with the BIM Model, workers will get a better understanding of the site they are working on, which, makes the entire process faster and safer.
Identifying the potential hazards through 4D & 5D BIM Services
Using 4D BIM services and sequencing along with the logistics planning, you can easily identify traffic considerations as well as potential hazards around the site before breaking the ground. You can use the 4D BIM Model to evaluate the erection sequence along with several other construction activities. We, at Cosmere Technologies, have helped several construction companies to eliminate the hazard at a very early stage, improving the overall safety of every worker.
Integrated Workflows
Another way in which BIM Modelling can help construction businesses is by integrating different workflows together effortlessly. We all know that there are several different tasks involved in the construction of a building. For the work to go smoothly and seamlessly, it is important that all these tasks are integrated with each other flawlessly. If not, there are chances of clashes and workflow collisions. A BIM-based workflow plan will allow teams to work together synchronized and avoid any clashes. This is why it is important that you take advantage of the BIM construction management Software.
Scenario Planning
Scenario planning is another thing that you can achieve by BIM Modeling. We all know that there are several scenarios that are not in our control. Using virtual modelling, you can actually take a look at a near-infinite number of what-if scenarios and determine the best possible solution to tackle them. This way, you will always be prepared for any scenario.
Stakeholder Communication | Additional Benefit of the BIM Model
Stakeholders don’t always have the best industry expertise or knowledge which might cause issues during the project. Explaining those old-style blueprints to them can turn into a war. With 3D BIM modeling you can make this communication with stakeholders much easier. These BIM models are not just very easy to understand but can also become a great channel of illustration for the stakeholders. This is another example of BIM helping construction businesses.
These are some ways in which BIM modeling can be used to help construction companies boost their overall safety. Other than that, there are also several other benefits of switching to BIM modeling services like automated compliance checking, model-driven prefabrication, and more. We, at Cosmere Technologies, offer excellent BIM Modeling services to construction businesses. If you are considering trying these BIM Models, you can contact us and we will help you throughout the project.
