Abstract

Despite the advantages of implementation of safety management in construction projects, due to the lack of awareness for the requirements and lack of requirements for the safety management system as well as the absence of tools and new digital technologies such as BIM system at the design stage of projects, the system is still not being evaluated. For this purpose, this paper attempts to explore the applications of BIM system in order to meet the requirements of the safety management system in construction projects and the degree of conformity and integration of BIM system capabilities in line with the effectiveness of the safety management system. The research methodology in this study is quantitative and qualitative. The most important prerequisites for the establishment of the safety management system in the country's construction projects and the most important BIM capabilities to address these prerequisites and the effectiveness of the safety management system in construction projects categorized in eight main categories and 40 factors were introduced along side. The results showed that documentation of safety analysis topped the list above other factors by means of Friedman's test, and it was proved that the prerequisites for the occurrence of the collapse, the hight falling and the falling of objects and accidents with the machinery and fire planning, as well as the safety training in the site, can be achieved by BIM applications in projects.
