Abstract: Abstract The use of floor scaffolding is widespread, but it is also prone to accidents. To ensure safe scaffolding construction, there is a need for reasonable construction standards and simulation exercises. With the development of technologies such as digital twins and metaverse, immersive interactive experiences have made it possible to conduct scaffolding construction safety training. This article summarizes common scaffolding safety accidents and designs a game-based interactive virtual platform. The platform uses the Unity3D engine to construct virtual scaffolding materials and visualizes the scaffolding erection, featuring game-like interactive operations where construction personnel complete virtual scaffolding construction in the form of game levels. After applying the platform to actual construction sites, construction personnel have become more familiar with the entire scaffolding construction process through game-based training, which has effectively implemented construction standards and strengthened safety awareness. This method addresses the lack of construction simulation in scaffolding construction and promotes the improvement of safety awareness among construction personnel.
