A Systematic Review of Information Modelling of Individual Residential Buildings
Diana Kalibatienė

Rapidly growing building information modelling (BIM) in construction offers a number of advantages and new opportunities of improving efficiency and effectiveness of the construction process and enhancing the use of emerging technology throughout the project's lifecycle, not only in new buildings, but also in existing ones, including overall infrastructure. Recently, there has been a great number of publications discussing BIM advantages in construction. A number of review papers summarising BIM usage cases have been published. However, as the preliminary research shows, not all organizations use BIM because of its disadvantages. Therefore, the main aim of this research is to study the extent of available literature on BIM, to determine the current situation of BIM usage, and summarise publications related to the application of BIM. The current study is limited solely to papers available in SpringerLink, ScienceDirect and Thomson Reuters Web of Sciences scientific databases. The obtained results make it clear that BIM case studies and research in academic journals show high level of BIM implementation in practice, and advantages of BIM. However, there are some limitations of BIM usage in practice. Moreover, new trends in the evolving BIM are presented and discussed in this paper.

Application of Building Information Modeling for an Institutional Building
Tejas Thaker

International Journal of Engineering Research and, 2020

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is widely seen as a catalyst for innovation and productivity in the construction industry. While BIM is increasingly being adopted in developed countries, implementations in the developing country context are rare. Research has established how construction firms struggle from several limitations having to do with the socio-economic and technological environment found in developing countries. Case studies shows that BIM does enhance the traditional scheduling and cost estimating methods with a more reliable and automated technology. Due to numerous steps of construction industry and its complicated and extensive structure, errors and reworks often might happen in this section. As such, BIM (Building Information Modeling) is regarded as a beneficial tool in minimizing the waste and improving the efficiency of building construction. This project is an application of Building Information Modeling which is an upcoming topic in the field of construction...

Experimental Building Information Models
Kristine Fallon

2011

In a previous Army research project, a core life-cycle building information model (BIM) was developed based on example models for three specific buildings: a Duplex Apartment, a Clinic, and an Office. These models were developed inconsistently over time by different modelers and contain a various levels of detail and quality of content across disciplines. This report documents the development and creation of three building information models that include information for architectural, structural, plumbing, electrical, heating, and ventilating. The three buildings are a family housing unit, a small office building, and a medical clinic. The authors developed a set of electronic building components, or common object library, and necessary setup protocols, and created a model-development plan to provide guidance to modelers. These guidelines may be helpful to designers and BIM managers to successfully create models that comply with Industry Foundation Class (IFC) based standards such as the Facility Management Handover Model View Definition or Construction Operations Building information exchange (COBie) format.

Building Information Modeling in the Architecture and Construction Industry
Jerome Jordan Famadico

Advances in Technology Innovation, 2023

This study aims to investigate the benefits, risks, barriers, and approaches of building information modeling (BIM) implementation in the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industries. Descriptive research methods such as surveys and key informant interviews are used to gather data. Respondents in the survey come from different AEC companies and are selected with a purposive sampling method. Descriptive statistics and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) are utilized to analyze the data. The narrative analysis method is also performed to validate the research findings through a desk review of secondary data. The result shows that the major benefit of BIM is earlier and more accurate design visualization, while the main risk is accountability and control of data entry into the model. Moreover, the major barrier to BIM implementation is the high acquisition cost, and the most recommended approach is to increase the availability of BIM technology.

Preface - Handbook of Research on Building Information Modeling and Construction Informatics
Ümit Işıkdağ

When Oceanic Flight 815 from Sydney to Los Angeles crashed on a mysterious tropical island in the South Pacific, none of the survivors were aware that they were actually LOST in their own lives. Instead, they were concerned with being physically LOST on an abandoned island. In fact, after 5 years of the TV Show and over 100 episodes, viewers became to realize that these 'Losties' could only become aware of their difficult and mysterious situation after spending several years in and out of the island.

A Case Study on Building Information Modeling for Residential Building
Ramadevi Ankam

2020

The design communication is gradually being changed from 2D based to integrated 3D digital interface. Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a modelbased design concept, in which buildings will be built virtually before they get built out in the field, where data models organized for complete integration of all relevant factors in the building lifecycle which also manages the information exchange between the AEC (Architects, Engineers, Contractors) professionals, to strengthen the interaction between the design team. BIM is a shared knowledge about the information for decisions making during its lifecycle. There’s still much to be learned about the opportunities and implications of this tool. In this project studing BIM appling on existing building, this existing building having G+1 floor with total built up area 158.07 SQM .In this building ground floor having 2BHK and first floor having 2BHK and on terrace floor having attched toilet.

Building information modeling technology has arrived and is being used by designers, contractors, and suppliers to reduce their costs, increase quality, and, in some instances, achieve designs that would be impossible without digital design and fabrication. Public and private owners now are requiring BIM, and it has been widely adopted for complex projects. Studies by Stanford University’s Center for Integrated Facility Engineering report that BIM use has risen significantly andwill continue to rise in the near future. And between 200...

Building Information Modeling: Why? What? How?
Andre Borrmann

Building Information Modeling - Technology Foundations and Industry Practice, 2018

Building Information Modeling is based on the idea of the continuous use of digital building models throughout the entire lifecycle of a built facility, starting from the early conceptual design and detailed design phases, to the construction phase, and the long phase of operation. BIM significantly improves information flow between stakeholders involved at all stages, resulting in an increase in efficiency by reducing the laborious and error-prone manual re-entering of information that dominates conventional paper-based workflows. Thanks to its many advantages, BIM is already practiced in many construction projects throughout the entire world. However, the fragmented nature of the construction industry still impedes its more widespread use. Government initiatives around the world play an important role in increasing BIM adoption: as the largest client of the construction industry in many countries, the state has the power to significantly change its work practices. This chapter discusses the motivation for applying BIM, offers a detailed definition of BIM along with an overview of typical use cases, describes the common BIM maturity grades and reports on BIM adoption levels in various countries around the globe.
