Each temporary facility in a building construction project requires a particular space at suitable location. This helps to execute their functions efficiently. Inappropriate allocation of location causes a functional problem which results in a loss of productivity, safety hazards, and time delay. Therefore, the site layout should be considered one of the significant resource and constraints to manage at a construction site. One of the most important construction resources for long ignored is space, having equal position as other construction resources. In highly crammed sites, space becomes a very scarce resource, that requires careful planning. On the other hand, large sites having plentiful space, positioning of site facilities plays important role in increasing efficiency. There are n number of temporary facilities to be planned on a construction site. It is very important to understand the importance of these facilities. This could be well done by taking views of field experts and analyzing these by using descriptive statistics software Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). Once the importance is understood the facilities can be planned well, using Building Information Modeling (BIM), in which a detailed site layout plan is prepared. This site layout plan helps in carrying out the construction work in a much planned manner. Due to this time delay is reduced and moreover productivity of labors increases.
