SafeSim Risk

Project Overview

Designed to train players to identify hazards and good practices on a virtual construction site, and to understand the likelihood and severity of identified hazards based on their observation in the virtual world.

Part 1: Site Investigation

ssr

Work as a team of 4-5 players to identify hazards and good practices within the site in 30 minutes

Part 2: Risk Evaluation

Rate the severity and likelihood of the hazards identified individually

Camera Tool

ssr1
  • Use the mouse wheel to zoom in and outand frame the item within the yellow frame
  • Ensure item is highlighted in redand left-click to capture
ssr2
  • Drag the captured image to the correct folder
  • Correct folder:+10 points
  • Wrong folder:-5 points
  • Red herring:-5 points
ssr3
    • Answer MCQ and get immediate feedback
    • Only one chance

Phone Tool

ssr4

  • Call in to the office to verify the Permit-to-Work (PTW) and Work Permit

Map Tool

ssr6
    • Teleport to different locations
    • Hover the areas for hints/clues
