BIM-based falling prevention planning BIM Safety research project, Pilot 1 Kristiina Sulankivi & Markku Kiviniemi VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland
2 Guardrail components for Pilot 1 (modelling software: Tekla Structures) 3D presentation: Tekla custom components modelled corresponding to the real guardrail solution used at the site new model 4D-planning: Assemblies in the components correspond to site installation and removing of the railings Timber railings for the post Guardrail post for surface installation (Vepe product, rented by Skanska Rakennuskone in Finland)
3 (underground floors: railings to be installed to cast in place vaults) Detailed BIM-based falling prevention planning based on the Tekla structural model of the building Positions of the guardrail posts are planned to avoid need to move the posts during the construction work -> time savings -> risk of falling decreased Case building project: New office premises of Skanska, in Helsinki, Finland (the client and the main contractor Skanska) Structural engineering and modelling Magnus Malmberg consulting engineers Falling prevention modelling VTT
4 (underground floors: railings to be installed to cast in place vaults) Part of the timber railing must be removed before the casting mould can be installed The railing posts are at right distance from the column, to be able to install the mould --> no need to move the posts Case building project: New office premises of Skanska, in Helsinki, Finland (the client and the main contractor Skanska) Structural engineering and modelling Magnus Malmberg consulting engineers Falling prevention modelling VTT

6 (underground floors: railings to be installed to cast in place vaults) Railings are located far enough from the slab edge to leave room for installation of wall elements. No need to remove the guardrail until the wall elements have been assembled -> risk of falling from heights is eliminated
7 (underground floors: form work and related safety equipment) Safety nets modelled as part of falling prevention solution planned to be used during form work Case building project: New office premises of Skanska, in Helsinki, Finland (the client and the main contractor Skanska) Structural engineering and modelling Magnus Malmberg consulting engineers Falling prevention modelling VTT
