“…The other two articles belong to the second dimension, as they applied a case study methodology. Teall (2014) identified the current challenges relating to the link between major project BIM tools and highways asset management to improve the whole-life management of highways assets. He used a case study of the M25 widening scheme, a major project by the UK Highways Agency.…”

Purpose Building information modeling (BIM) is a process of generating and managing building data during the building’s life cycle. To increase productivity in building design and construction, BIM uses three-dimensional (3D) real-time, dynamic building modeling software. Because of its versatile features, BIM use is on the rise and researchers are exploring its application in new disciplines. The purpose of this study is to map out how BIM is used in the construction industry, while identifying and highlighting the research gaps in the literature. Design/methodology/approach To investigate the status quo of knowledge about BIM, the authors conducted a comprehensive literature review. They applied and extended a methodology for reviewing BIM-related publications through a four-dimensional meta-analysis system and its categories, which has been partially adapted previously. Findings Majority of studies applying BIM for the construction phase of civil engineering projects were done within universities; none used BIM for the construction of intermediate railway stations. Practical implications To increase the construction efficiency of intermediate railway stations, applying the BIM concept for generation and management of station data should be considered for future research. Originality/value Furthermore, one of the main goals of this research paper is to explore the adoption of BIM in civil engineering construction projects, in particular the construction of intermediate railway stations.

“…The second paper in this issue, by Teall (2014), evaluates the current situation and ongoing developments relating to the use of BIM tools and processes in major projects undertaken by the Highways Agency in the UK. The paper explains the benefits of BIM within the sector along with the current restrictions to its use.…”

Building information modelling has become a core topic in the architectural engineering and construction (AEC) industry, and its benefits have been realised over different phases of project construction. Adoption of nD BIM in the domain of infrastructure projects has provided challenges and is yet evolving. This chapter reviews the adoption of Building information modelling in the management of infrastructure projects. The use of nD planning (4D, 5D, 6D, 7D, and 8D planning) in infrastructure planning and management is discussed through Mapping n-D BIM with different applications in infrastructure projects. 4D BIM models are developed integrating the 3D models with the schedule and they support multiple construction management tasks. The implementation of 4D planning and management in infrastructure projects is demonstrated with the help of two case studies.
