Building Information and Modelling (BIM) is a technology that allows Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) professionals to digitally design, test, construct and manage the infrastructure. BIM in construction projects has not been fully implemented, due to lack of effective strategy in the implementation of BIM. AEC industries struggles to implement BIM because of the absence of a Real-World BIM sample and BIM framework. This research aims to navigate AEC professionals to implement BIM with respect to structural discipline and this paper will also help to understand the coordination between other disciplines where one discipline model is superimposed on another discipline model. This paper will also help to understand different global BIM standards and the most efficient and effective BIM tools used all over the world. AEC professionals need assistance in the form of a framework which would provide a road map to process and implement BIM. Thus, the framework provided in the paper expected to increase BIM implementation and eventually widen the usage of BIM.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
