Abstract
Mobile cranes are one of the most commonly used equipment in construction, and an inappropriate choice of a mobile crane may cause a serious accident. The current practice relies on the engineers' experience in planning mobile crane operation, which is a tedious and potentially error-prone process. This paper makes use of recent developments in Building Information Modelling (BIM) to address the problem. It presents a comprehensive framework to model mobile crane safe lifting requirements from the 3D BIM model. Based on the requirements, it proposes a decision-support system for planning mobile crane operations. The result of this research facilitates engineers and a construction manager in construction site planning and improves construction site safety.
