Abstract:

A construction site is a dynamic and complex place where multiple activities, process and elements take place. In an era of digitalization revolution, construction safety management on site faces significant challenges, in particular, there is a lack of understanding about how to raise situation awareness (SA) using digital solutions. Against this backdrop, this review aims to investigate current SA research, and the role digitalization can play to improve its performance in construction safety.
