Publisher's Synopsis
BIM, or building information modeling, has been around for more than 20 years. BIM was introduced to the construction sector as a productivity tool and to improve project delivery. The concept of BIM might vary from nation to country and is dependent on the researcher's interpretation and personal experience. The purpose of this study is to review the idea of BIM, including its definition, background, maturity and capability models, applications, and benefits. This study offers a conceptual explanation based on a thorough literature assessment. It is anticipated that the idea emphasized in this work would promote a constructive discussion on BIM and garner some interest from practitioners and scholars in general.
Building information modeling, concept, and literature review are keywords.
Introduction
One of the most difficult businesses to work in is construction in many nations. Poor investment rates, rising costs, increased risk, waste, and low labor productivity are all significant problems in this sector. This is corroborated by Haron (2013), who noted that a number of publications in the AIA Guide (2007) emphasized inefficiencies and wastes in the building sector. According to McKinsey & Company (2015), from 1994 to 2012, productivity difficulties in the construction industry were static compared to those in the manufacturing sector.
Complexity, ambiguity, and uncertainty were conventional approaches that led to the development of Building Information Modeling (BIM) as an appealing solution to the issue (Arayici et al., 2011; Harris et al., 2014). (Hadzaman et al., 2015). BIM is a platform for collaboration where information is exchanged and transmitted among project team members across the whole lifespan, according to Ashcraft (2008). Additionally, BIM also made possible in the world for the better so make sure you got inspired from what you read for your better tomorrow,
