Abstract

Construction phase still presents many difficulties and contingencies related to the project documents information management between the actors involved. Different studies investigated methods and models to optimize the operational management of the construction phase. Concerning workers??? health and safety protection most of them focused on the development of on-site and in real-time control systems. Therefore, the authors identified the exigency of a prevention information system based on workers??? involvement. To reach the aim three objectives have been identified: (1) the check of workers??? training, (2) the definition of works operational procedures and (3) the schematization of the assembly/disassembly/use of site equipment and temporary structures. The developed system is characterized by a synergic application of BIM model and QR-code and it has been applied on a case study. At the same time a questionnaire has been developed and proposed to different subjects of the construction sector in order to evaluate the potential use of BIM model and QR-code. The field test has allowed to demonstrate the practical use of the tool, enhancing communication between the Client technical structure, the General contractor and sub-contractors, improving workers??? integration and participation and allowing a better availability of on-site health and safety information and documents.
