<scp>BIM</scp> ‐driven productivity and risk management of workspaces for manual and robotic installations
Abstract In the face of increasing construction project complexity and the widespread adoption of Building Information Modeling (BIM), the efficient planning and execution of workspaces have become critical for enhancing productivity, safety, and overall project success. This study presents a BIM‐based workspace design tool that addresses the challenges of confined workspaces, concurrent activities, and ergonomically demanding tasks. The tool seamlessly integrates with BIM models to visualize, analyze, and optimize workspace configurations, ensuring that anchor installations, among other tasks, can be completed safely and efficiently. Through systematic research and the application of various use cases, the tool's effectiveness is demonstrated and validated, highlighting its potential to alleviate project managers' workload and significantly improve construction outcomes. The study concludes by outlining future enhancements and providing valuable insights for researchers and practitioners.
