Abstract: The unprecedented growth and integration of the innovative technologies in information and
communication tech-nology (ICT) promotes rapid evolution of conventional construc-tion to smart
construction. Advanced technology application brings impressive benefits such as time and cost reduction,
especially safety management improvements in the construction where accidents and fatalities always
happen due to the unsafe and risky working environment. In the sense that the fatality rate is one of the main
quantitative measurements that reflects safety performance, numerous public agencies giving accident
reports and safety standards to recommend for the construction stakeholders. However, incidents in
workplace remain unin-terrupted because of the deficiency of safety information and understanding the root
causes of accidents in specific conditions. Moreover, many construction companies do not have managers
who have particularly technical and professional expertise related to safety area. It leads to pressures in
controlling the whole process of construction within safety implementation, and so on, the workers face
difficulties in approaching and understanding the complicated safety document. As a result, the manager’s
burden increase and sometimes vital information get ignored. To address this issue, this paper proposed a
Real-Time Safety Planning (RTSP) System supported by 4-Dimensional Building Information Modeling
(4D-BIM), which consist of risk severity assessment based on the temporal and spatial conditions before
giving priorities of major hazard protection. To accomplish this, the study evaluated and distributed the
severity of 320 fatalities cases in relation to Fatal Four (four major fatality causes in construction industry)
reported from various public resources, which specifically illustrative of accident concentrate rate in an
individual work task. A simulation of RTSP system for the Exterior building wall with major hazard
consideration and designated Temporary Safety Facilities (TSF) utilizing 4D-BIM is presented as a proof of
concept. It is expected that the novel approach could decrease the safety manager workload and will make
the construction safety planning process more comprehensible.
1 INTRODUCTION
The dynamic unique and complex construction site
en-vironment are the causes of the high fatal
accident rate and safety risks for the jobsite worker.
According to OSHA reports, worker fatalities in the
construction industry in 2017, accounted for 20.7%
with 971 cases, the higher rate than any sector. It is
quite clear form the literature that four types of
hazards are responsible for the majority of injury
and death in the construction sites, what we called
Fatal Four and that includes falls, struck-by-object,
electrocutions, and caught-in-between (OSHA,
2014). By the US Bureau of Labor Statistics reports,
these Fatal Four were responsible for more merely
60% among the construction worker deaths in 2017,
and become the leading causes of accidents in
construction. The fact that the construction working
environment required labors haS to be well-
equipped knowledge, professional experience, and
skills, particularly in the safety aspect, immediately
from pre-construction phase (Behm, 2005).
Therefore, identify and eliminate root causes
accidents for appropriate prevention decisions from
early-stage play an essential role in the success of
making project planning.
On the other hand, the high proportion of
accidents have witnessed the ineffectiveness of
safety planning provision. It should be emphasized
that the actual health and safety implementation

performance in the industry still inadequate and need
strengthening. Explaining about causes, while some
construction enterprises claimed that the biggest
restricting factor for safety compliance was felt to be
time constraints, others believed that cost was a
problem prevent them (Chi, Chang, and Ting, 2005).
Actually, when injuries and fatal accident occur,
significant cost and time resources were lost because
of rework and training for replacement personnel
(Arboleda and Abraham, 2004). Moreover, accidents
affect the quality of the project, increases direct and
indi-rect costs for additional payments (Chi, Chang,
and Ting, 2005). By enhancing safety planning and
eliminating hazards factors, would not only save
hundreds of worker’s life but also reflect the
sustainable development of construction companies,
increasing working efficiency, competitiveness, and
profitability project.
The research focuses on a visualization approach
to improve safety planning and contribute towards a
better understanding of the conditions and causes of
accidents. Accordingly, the main goal was providing
the severity of fatality in each work-ing activity and
suggest preclusion measures respectively. The
proposed system, hopefully, will effective assist
construction managers, reduce the number of
accidents, thus creating a safer environment for the
labors working on construction projects.

2.1 Current Status of Safety Planning
Effective safety planning played a vital part in
construction project success. Sufficient safety
planning not only able to predict time and
circumstance accidents occur on project but also
develop adequate hazard mitigation plans (Choe and
Leite, 2017). The best way to keep a safe
construction workplace is by preventing hazards
from the pre-arising period. Failing to identify risks
from safety planning may increase significantly
accidents and defections in Job-site (Chi,Chang, and
Ting, 2005). However, conventional safety plan-
ning accomplishing in the construction sector
remains several drawbacks. Safety planning is still a
shortage of specific information and separate among
other planning functions, such as time, cost, and
quality (Choe and Leite, 2017). Accordingly,
construction safety analysis relies on manual efforts
or individual experi-ence of safety managers to
recognize potential hazards (Kim, Cho, and Zhang,
2016). Additionally, limited attention has been given
to safety from the planning and design phase since
the long-term impact was not considered or
understand. Limited attention has been given to
safety field from the planning and design phase
since the long-term impact was not considered or
understand (Zou, Kiviniemi, and Jones, 2017),
(Wong, Wang, Law, and Lo, 2016). Furthermore,
due to the overwhelming number of safety rules and
the complexities inherent with them, detecting the
appropriate safety contents and communicating them
to the right person or the right working condition
becomes a challenge. These problems require well-
defined and structured safety information that can be
identified and applied auto-matically by building
models software with the least human interaction.
Safety planning is obliged to instantly accessible,
effortlessly; standardized and visualized input
information; close communication with the routine
works and workers (Choe and Leite, 2017).
2.2 Using BIM for Safety Planning
Even BIM is broadly used for design and
monitoring, BIM is not yet widely applied for safety
planning [9]. Zhang and Kim (Zhang et al, 2013),
(Kim, Cho, and Kim, 2018) declared that most
accidents could be decreased and prevented with the
proper safety planning process that well planned by
the integration of BIM. The innovation of BIM
application has paved the way for safety
performance by providing a rich profusion of
information, reducing paper-based 2D drawing,
improving realistic visualization of safety prevention
(Zhang et al,2013 ), (Khan et al, 2019). In addition,
4D-BIM is known as a collaboration intelligent
linking between 3D digital model, schedule-related
information and safety contents (Kim, Cho, and
Kim, 2018). The BIM environment accommodates
visual information, a highly collaborative, and
plentiful parameter that is an appropriate condition
for simulation safety features. Prior involvement of
safety leaders using BIM from the planning process
made benefits to detect unsafe designs and risk
factors (Kim, Cho, and Kim, 2018), (Hongling,
Yantao, Weisheng, and Yan, 2016), provided
necessary safety measures (Zhang et al, 2015).

2.3 Need for an Effective
Activity-based Safety Planning
The investigated studies indicated that hazards
identification and mitigation are necessary to enrich
construction safety from planning to execution.
Moreover, the application of BIM can overcome
impediments in the traditional safety planning
process. However, the literature revealed that the
current integration of BIM merely provided
subjective safety preven-tion without any authentic
evidence. Hence, the provision of safety information
in these cases seems more like passively memorized
without foundation in reality. The objective of this
study is to emphasize the main causes of accidents in
each work task in order to enhance understanding of
nature behind the reasons why safety protection
needs to use in specific situations. This paper
proposes an innovative approach which
accommodated safety information including Fatal
Four assessment (FFA) and TSF in specific
conditions with spatial and temporal simulating in
BIM environment. The process of developing RTSP
based on FFA is illustrated in Fig. 1. The accident
root causes are analyzed and evaluated by FFA
process. Then, the virtual reality simulation for the
prioritizing welfare facilities at work was designated
and incorporated re-spectively. The visual-spatial
environment including modeling components
fastened on specific activities duration and real-time
TSF collectively navigated. By developing
Naviswork plugin that will allow intuitively
distributing FFA and TSF, which will enhance
safety planning by forecasting critical TSF that
remind managers and simplify the access of other
project participants.
3 DATA ANALYSIS AND
ASSESSMENT
3.1 Current Status of Safety Planning
There are many methods available for collection and
analy-sis of accidents and the purpose of such
methods are clarifies the leading causes of the
incident, the defection in working process from
subjective aspects existences (such as organi-
zational level, control measures, installation and
maintenance, training, management factors) to
objective existences problems like environmental
issues (Hale et al, 2012). Relevant researches
highlighted correlations among various accident
characteristics with causes and construction stages
(Betsis et al, 2019). Currently, the study found that
fall-related hazards are major concerns (Chi, Chang,
and Ting, 2005), (Wong et al, 2019), (Zhang et al,
2015), and most construction accidents and fatalities
in small or medium firms (Betsis, Kalogirou,
Aretoulis, and Pertzinidou, 2019). Therefore, the
analysts collected and extracted critical information
from available sources and classify it into the
method formation. When analyzing fatal data, the
literature methods cover different factors for
specifying re-search contents. For illustration, the
interviews for a human factors specialist were
conducted by Hale (Hale et al, 2012) to classify and.

underlying the levels of risk factors and their
inter-relation associated with inadequacies in
planning and risk assessment. Other research for the
real causes behind Fatal Fall-from-Height in Hong
Kong, (Wong et al, 2016) weigh all the inquest from
the government agencies and witnesses involved in
the accidents. Regarding the roots causes of fatalities
in trenching operations, Arboleda (Arboleda and
Abraham, 2004) established the major relationships
between the condition and reason of the trenching
fatalities.
By conducting the investigations of several
public re-ports such as Occupational Safety and
Health Administration (OSHA), Bureau of Labor
and Statistics (BLS), the National Institute for
Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), this study
focuses on Fatal Four related fatalities which makes
up a major proportion of worker death caused. In
other words, FFA data provides a foundation for the
development of effective intervention measures and
subsequently minimizing the main causes of
hazardous conditions in Jobsite. Fig. 2 shows the
individual Fatal Four percentages. It is observed that
the main cause belongs to Falls which occupies
39.2% of the total fatal causes while all others made
up less than 10%. Internally, the OSHA and BLS
data is gathered from the reports of employers or the
news media while the figure of NIOSH depended on
death certificate data. The investigated data consists
of more than 300 fatalities reported cases of Fatal
Four that were collected from OSHA website. In the
reviewed OSHA fatalities reports for the last 3 years
since 2017, the inspection report includes Case
Status, Basic Information of victim, employer,
working condition, Violation Summary, Violation
Items, Investigation Summary.
3.2 FFA for Safety Planning
Safety planning is an essential part of the planning
process, this stage aims at providing sufficient safety
information and facilities for welfare of workers and
working operations (Azhar, 2017). However, safety
information is abstract and dynamic, it leads to a
complicated accomplishing process consisted of
various legal documents, regulations and accident
records (Guo, Yu, and Skitmore, 2017). There is an
abundance of hazards close implicated in each
working activity. Meanwhile, conventional safety
planning lack of in-tuitive method automatic
exporting safety contents in chrono.

logical order and hazardous priority. To solve
these problems, FFA data was provided as a
comprehensive explanation for prevention methods
that required install in safety planning. The study
focus on the evaluate the most frequent occurrences
regarding construction Fatal Four and at the same
time identify correlations among the various
parameters associated with working activities.
Besides, Fatal Four occurred frequently in
construction projects during many activities. To
developing significance safety planning, the study
considers broad reports of accidents in construction
industry to indicate essential risks in each working
stage. The evaluated information was taken verbatim

from the initial report database held by OSHA
covering the name of reports, the type of accident,
time and location, age and employment status of the
victim, the geographical region, size of Jobsite,
nature of the project, the reason of incident and
recommendation. The critical information was
selected to input as initial data and display in excel
format. Table. I presented a part of classification
data for construction fatal cases that happened. More
than 500 fatalities were analyzed and 320 Fatal Four
related cases were evaluated and classified into four
categories (Falls, Electrocutions, Struck by Objects,
Caught-in-Between) with activity types (
Excavation, Foun-dation, Concrete forming,
Reinforcing, Masonry, etc.). After identifying the
main causes of fatal in specific work conditions.

best-practice prevention was recommended. The
results of FFA could impact the entire safety
management process by what prime accident arrive
and how they were eliminated during working stage.
Each working activity was expressed FFA result in
percentage (refer to Fig. 3). It can be seen that FFA
information is useful to emphasize the hazardous
factor and remind reasonable safety protection needs
to be designated. In order to develop effective safety
planning, FFA data, project schedule, and safety
contents are required to identify and incorporate
closely in a visual presentation.
4 RTSP SYSTEM FRAMEWORK
In order to reduce manager workload and enhance
safety planning procedure, RTSP can be a useful
alternative for traditional method of integrating
reasonable safety protection with FFA-based. The
term real-time is in the sense that the prevention
methods were presented immediately to the dynamic
changing of project in model environment. It means
that when the schedule was integrated into 3D
model, the real-time 4D simulations for working
sequences were established with construction
progress activity visualization. The develop-ment of
RTSP based on 4D-BIM is automatically extracting
reasonable safety contents in a visual-spatial
environment, that encompassed the severity of
accident and prioritizing safety prevention.
This can be achieved via five steps:
1) 4D-BIM preparation by integrating project
schedule and digital 3D model.
2) Analysis FFA data.
3) TSF development based on FFA data.
4) RTSP collaborative simulation.
5) Data upload to BIM-cloud and User acquired
RTSP data
The RTSP framework consists of four modules
including Fatalities reports investigation, FFA, 4D-
BIM simulation, Par-ticipants interaction are
graphically presented in Fig. 4. In order to guarantee
safely workplace, the participant including managers
and workers has a responsibility to understand and
complete many safety requirements. In particular,
RTSP is purposely designed to help users understand
the insight causes of accident and dangerous
occurrence protection methods in Jobsite. Based on
visualization material with prioritized prevention
simulations, its easy approach, and flexible inter-
actions. RTSP system potential to provides a better
solution for preparing an effective and efficient
safety planning to con-struction participants and
creating critical safety data for local databased
(project databased, contractor databased, company
accident databased, agency databased, etc.).
5 4D-BIM-BASED RTSP DESIGN
4D-BIM-based RTSP aims to provide visualizations
of construction sites through an innovative digital
approach. To accomplish this, a combination of FFA
data, project schedule, Temporary safety facility
(TSF) and 3D building model plays a vital role in
the success of the entire system. Fig. 5 illustrates the
4D-BIM-based RTSP architecture in detail.
5.1 4D-BIM Preparation
Spatial environment in BIM becomes an effective
commu-nication and management method where
critical information (dimension, quantity, quality,
schedule, safety) and temporary facilities could be
linked that enable visualized, distributed and
addressed safety contents (Hossain et al, 2018). By
embedding schedule information in a digital model,
a 4D-BIM simulation was developed. In this section,
a three months schedule for the residential project
was created in MS project and a 3D digital model
was developed simultaneously in Revit environment.
After that, Navisworks was chosen to implement

312
4D-BIM collaboration. The 4D-BIM solution
contains parametric at-tributes that offer several
interesting opportunities to indicate safety contents
in the safety planning process. Especially, in order to
mitigating risk in construction site, the Family
Editor tools in Revit enables to create prevention
facilities data.
5.2 TSF Development
Temporary safety facility (TSF) system is the
provision of temporary welfare facilities for
employees in each work task in Jobsite. After
identifying important risk factors along with each
activity based on FFA (mentioned in the previous
section), TSF positively influences construction
safety by focusing on best practices prevention.
With an abundance of safety contents in
construction, workers or even designers or
contractors possibly are unaware or ignore some
requirements in non-typical conditions or in a short
period, and so accident appears in the scenario. For
instance, normally, in the pri-vate residential
construction, Exterior wall work task at each
building level often complete for 1 or 2 days. FFA
result showed that the highest fatality proportion in
the Exterior wall.
Figure 5: 4D-BIM-based RTSP system architecture.
work is Falls, as illustrated in Fig. 6. Consider
risk factors of Exterior wall work such as floor level
height, bounding space is sheltering or empty,
materials or equipment delivering, framing and
erecting walls, etc. The TSF priority needed to
implement in this work should be the guardrail
system. The place needs to install is the un-build
exterior wall spaces or opening on the built wall.
Figure 6: TSF for exterior wall work.
5.3 RTSP System Simulation
The main objective of this research is to develop
com-prehensive FFA data and recommend TSF (or
best practices prevention) which enhance the RTSP
system in order to eliminate hazards and show
activity-based TSF automatically. The RTSP
development is detailed described as follows:
1) Non-model accident severity data were
collected and analyzed then converted to the
bar chart diagram to make it visualized
graphically. When appended safety contents in
the Naviswork environment, the FFA
categories need clearly linked to explicit
models of how and when po-tential hazards
can occur. This process has been done in
Construction safety information Tab with the
help of Data Tools from Navisworks.
2) Using the API .NET programming interface
offered by Navisworks. The custom plug-ins
drive the safety pre-vention products in
construction safety tab and create the
connection access to model and schedule task.
A navigate plugin is developed based on
Application Programming Interface (API)
provided by Naviswork Platforms. This plugin
will be integrated into Navisworks
environment and show the safety information
as well as prevention products according to
3D digital model and work tasks.
3) Whenever a new TSF is created, RTSP system
imple-ments the time for installation and
removal of all TSF into the schedule. After
that, it can be added to the TSF
Fmily. All the safety issues related to FFA
data always updated to suggest and install TSF
appropriately.
4) Finally, the 4D-BIM-based TSF can be
coordinated and made available to users
(workers, managers, owners, and

stakeholders) for simple approach,
understandable safety planning, and other
advanced communication purposes.
6 DISCUSSION AND
CONCLUSION
This paper proposes an innovative approach based
on the severity of fatalities, construction activities
for constructing a 4D-BIM-based RTSP to provide
adequate TSF recommenda-tion in specific spatial
and temporal simulation. The studied approach has
the potential to identify the most dangerous risk
factors among fatality causes, corresponding
prioritize providing safety prevention automatically.
The system en-ables to update the best practice
safety measures in order of importance, improve
safety management process, and finally reducing
errors in searching and using safety data. To fulfill
the objective, the various accident reports associated
with Fatal Four were analyzed and carefully
evaluated. Based on this investigation, scenario of
the unsafe conditions were identified for the purpose
of providing TSF simulation. By taking advantage of
4D-BIM, a plugin was built to allow upload and
navigate FFA data and TSF system in an intuitive
way.
Proposed system able to enhance safety
management, re-duce manager responsibility, and
simplify worker’s approach. It resulting in
impressive efficiencies in reducing risks and
accidents happening in construction. In the research,
there are multiple steps which were executed for
developing RTSP system. This works also reveals
some limitations that it is nec-essary for developing
an ideal and accurate 4D-BIM platform to
accomplish specific safety tasks and conditions
update. The aim of the assessment method is Fatal
four, the remaining factors that take part 40 percent
of construction fatality cause would explore in
further investigation. Agruablelly, the accu-rate of
RTSP concept depends on the number of fatality
cases evaluated in producing severity accident rate.
Further research would be necessary to collect more
fatalities data and scope down on fatalities rate in the
small and medium enterprises (SMEs). Besides, the
FFA-based computer vision application to remotely
monitor calculate the severity of accident occur-
rences of workers will be experimental perform.
Additionally, it would also be worthwhile to
consider the effect of utilizing Artificial intelligence
(AI) to automatically complete FFA pro-cess and
recommend accurately risk prevention. On the other
hand, we also going to integrate the system with
Augmented reality (AR) technologies to brings real
experiences method to users. The experiment
implementation will be evaluated in the real
construction site in Viet Nam and South Korea to
compare the practical application of this system in
developing and developed country.
