“…The weakest BIM capability was found to be Whole-life costing (26) when compared to the other capability categories. Bynum et al (2012) found that BIM has a stronger application in project coordination and visualisation than it has for sustainability. Others found that the representations offered by BIM do not necessarily make the exploration of design solution space more effective or efficient, and that AEC professionals find solutions through what some authors referred to as 'messy Krystallis et al 2016.…”

“…Manning and Messner (2008) looked at healthcare case studies and found data transfer bottlenecks and a later study found that the industry had not yet found a way to resolve interoperability issues (Bynum, et al, 2012). Return on investment (ROI) issues have been discussed widely in literature, and Giel (2009) …”

ABSTRACT:We discuss the evolution and state-of-the-art of the use of Building Information Modelling (BIM) in the field of culture heritage documentation. BIM is a hot theme involving different characteristics including principles, technology, even privacy rights for the cultural heritage objects. Modern documentation needs identified the potential of BIM in the recent years. Many architects, archaeologists, conservationists, engineers regard BIM as a disruptive force, changing the way professionals can document and manage a cultural heritage structure. The latest years, there are many developments in the BIM field while the developed technology and methods challenged the cultural heritage community in the documentation framework. In this review article, following a brief historic background for the BIM, we review the recent developments focusing in the cultural heritage documentation perspective.

“…By using BIM we can increase project quality, schedule timetables accurately, and reduce total costs of the project [12]. BIM is a technology which is used in construction industry to generate and manage a parametric model of a building to decrease document errors and rework, and reduce the time of the design process Son, et al [13].…”

New digital technology has the potential to decrease the environmental footprint of construction activities, while they increase the productivity and safety involved in major construction projects. Digital technologies such as web-based building information modelling (BIM) and sensing technology are emerging technology that can be widely employed in construction projects in developing countries. However, the construction industry tends to be slow in adopting new digital technology to meet their objectives in developing countries. This paper aims to investigate construction technology readiness for utilization of digital technology in construction projects and to identify the factors that can potentially facilitate construction stockholders' application of digital technology.A questionnaire is designed, and an empirical investigation is conducted to collect data from construction companies including industrial and infrastructure construction companies. Regression analysis was utilized to analyze the data to measure the relations of latent factors through significance values using SPSS. The findings show the importance of a series of factors influencing construction stakeholders' intention to use a new digital technology. Based on the extensive review on the relevant literature, few empirical studies have been conducted to examine the proposed constructs including innovativeness and optimism for emerging digital technology. The results are also expected to provide a guidance to broaden understanding of adoption behavior within this context and thereby increasing the chances for successful adoption of sustainable technology and develop activity-level.
