Of late, Building Information Modelling (BIM) has been well established in the construction industry across the globe. Nevertheless, safety aspect is less contemplated when it comes to construction phase. Despite safety is one of the most decisive aspects in BIM development process, the model of Automated Safety Rule Checking (ASRC) system should be deployed at the early project stage to reduce the construction’s hazard. Thus, the aim of this research are two folds; (1) to distinguish the models of ASRC system implemented in Finland, United States (US), Thailand and China and; (2) to propose an amalgamated initial framework of ASRC system for BIM-based projects in Malaysia. A descriptive survey was employed to large public and private construction organisations that involved in BIM-based projects. The data were analysed by using document analysis and content analysis techniques. Five significant fundamental components from the models were revealed in developing the initial framework of ASRC system. With the establishment of the framework, safety is going to be prime concern in near future, particularly in Malaysia BIM-based construction projects.
