“…The limited yet growing research in the field covers BIM-enhanced coordination for CWM [1], BIM-enhanced design waste minimisation [57,65,85], BIM-enhanced on-site waste management [32,53,64,73], and BIM-enhanced demolition waste management [15,31]. However, there is a complete absence of research on the development and review of tools and methodologies that use BIM to support CWM decision making during design.…”

“…Applying BIM technology has led to significant project improvements in waste reduction, with a material rate of 4%, compared with China's average level of 10% [21]. In another case, a system-based BIM technology was applied to provide a risk evaluation of construction waste for contractors [22]. In the construction process, a lack of coordination and poor integration of building subsystems are the main factors limiting the normal operation of BIM technology, leading to mass construction waste.…”

China's construction industry is facing significant challenges in achieving sustainable development and digital operations. Integrating building information modeling (BIM) and sustainable construction is a good method for achieving these goals. However, barriers impact the applications of BIM technology to sustainable buildings, resulting in significant cost loss and time. As such, it is important to identify the constraints, hindering the application of BIM technology in sustainable buildings. This study used the factor analysis method, exploratory factor analysis (EFA), and structural equation modeling (SEM) to investigate the key constraints and conducted a questionnaire survey with 389 respondents to investigate the applications of BIM technology in sustainable building projects. The results showed that there were four main constraining factors: "Public participation", "technology application", "economic cost", and "application management"; "public participation" was particularly important. The study offers practical and managerial implications based on the findings for local government and the private sector and thus can improve the implementation of BIM technology in sustainable buildings and contribute to the accomplishment of China's sustainable development goals.

“…These advantages make it widely used in the field of construction engineering. Based on some engineering application cases, many scholars have carried out a series of related researches, which are embodied in quality monitoring (Wong, Salleh, & Rahim, 2015), risk assessment (Ryu, Kim, S. Suh, & W. Suh, 2015), carbon emis-sions and thermal comfort (Peng & Wu, 2015;Marzouk & Abdelaty, 2014), environmental protection (Liu, Meng, & Tam, 2015;Lee, Tae, Roh, & Kim, 2015;Marzouk, Azab, & Metawie, 2016;Lu, Wu, Chang, & Li, 2017;Porwal & Hewage, 2012Chaves, Tzortzopoulos, Formoso, & Biotto, 2017;Reychav, Leitan, & McHaney, 2017), energy consumption (Abanda & Byers, 2016;Abanda, Vidalakis, Oti, & Tah, 2015;Franeisco, Truong, Khosrowpour, Taylor, & Mohammadi, 2018;Sanhudo et al, 2018), safety (Martinez-Aires, Lopez-Alonso, & Martinez-Rojas, 2018;Zhang, Teizer, Lee, Eastman, & Venugopal, 2013) and so on. On the other hand, some scholars have tried to combine BIM technology with wireless real-time sensing technology (Lai, Qiu, Chen, Wang, & Fan, 2014;Cheung, T. H. Lin, & Y. C. Lin, 2018;Alves, Carreira, & Costa, 2017), 3D laser scanning technology and point cloud technology (Mahdjoubi, Moobela, & Laing, 2013;Macher, Landes, & Grussenmeyer, 2017) in practical engineering, based on which a lot of researches have been carried out.…”

The emergence of BIM technology has provided powerful technical means for realizing informatization and digitization in the field of engineering construction, which remarkably promotes the transformation and advance of production and management modes in engineering construction. Presently, the application and development of BIM technology in the field of engineering construction has become increasingly mature, yet in the field of tunnel engineering, the application of BIM technology is still in its infancy. Under such a circumstance, this paper first puts forward the basic hardware and software configuration requirements for BIM technology in tunnel engineering, and elaborates the basic structure of the BIM technology implementation team from eight respects. Second, this paper elaborates the general principles and the basic process of BIM technology application in tunnel engineering. Third, the paper proposes the initial construction scheme of the tunnel engineering collaborative management platform based on BIM technology, and analyzes the feasibility of platform development deeply. Last, the BIM technology is applied to two projects including Tunnel 1 in Yinxi Railway Huanxian County and Tianjin Metro Line 6, which provides auxiliary technical means for solving practical engineering problems, and provides some reference for subsequent application researches of BIM-like technologies in tunnel engineering.
