Using BIM, 3D and VR Technology for Construction Safety Training

Construction safety training has moved very slowly toward embracing technology, having relied on old technologies such as PowerPoint and the occasional outdated safety video. This session will introduce you to the concept of building information modeling, three-dimensional construction plans and designs, and virtual reality. You’ll hear about empirical data on the benefits of using BIM, 3D and VR for safety training, including reduction of employee training hours, increased employee content retention and motivation of students, and increased on return on investment.
