Applicability of BIM kiosk on Construction Sites

There is a poor implementation of BIM at the construction phase, especially on the site where traditional way of working with paper drawings is still popular. A literature identifies several major shortcomings of using this approach on the site: poor portability and inadequate handling of drawings ; problems related to readability of drafts ; insufficient and not enough detailed information. Nevertheless, the idea of bringing digital design information on the site is not quite new. There were several studies of implementing digital equipment (e.g.laptops) on the site with possibility to navigate, review and collect specific project information. One of the popular ways of bringing BIM to the site is via BIM kiosks - rough computing system built for construction site personnel. The purpose of BIM kiosks is to enable workers/engineers to review the model and thus get on-site access to the update design information. This paper seeks to bring BIM closer to the site via theme of BIM kiosk as a means of site personnel for the extraction of all needed project information. What is a BIM kiosk, what benefits does it brings, how to use it and implement on the site, those are the questions this paper is being focused on. Research has shown how BIM kiosk could be applicable to the Croatian construction projects and that it would be mostly useful for contractors. The benefits of BIM kiosk are recognized, especially benefit of brining up-to-date project information on site. Results and comments of respondents welcome BIM kiosk on construction sites.
