“…A third possibility is to help fill the gaps in the use of BIM throughout a facility's life cycle. Anticipating analysis from later phases reduces impact of changes and can bring significant savings later on [52], [53]. For example, buildings designed for efficient "Facility Management" can reduce maintenance costs over decades of operation.…”

Building Information Modeling (BIM) employs data-rich 3D CAD models for large-scale facility design, construction, and operation. These complex datasets contain a large amount and variety of information, ranging from design specifications to real-time sensor data. They are used by architects and engineers for various analysis and simulations throughout a facility's life cycle. Many techniques from different visualization fields could be used to analyze these data. However, the BIM domain still remains largely unexplored by the visualization community. The goal of this article is to encourage visualization researchers to increase their involvement with BIM. To this end, we present the results of a systematic review of visualization in current BIM practice. We use a novel taxonomy to identify main application areas and analyze commonly employed techniques. From this domain characterization, we highlight future research opportunities brought forth by the unique features of BIM. For instance, exploring the synergies between scientific and information visualization to integrate spatial and non-spatial data. We hope this article raises awareness to interesting new challenges the BIM domain brings to the visualization community.

“…Park and Lee (2017) compared two units in the same building project with different degrees of BIM involvement to demonstrate the substantial effect of BIM on building design coordination. Lu et al (2015) quantified the impact of BIM to improve the efficiency of the project endeavor by comparing two cases with and without BIM. Bryde et al (2013) reported that the application of BIM to projects contributes to good control of time, cost, and quality, along with enhanced communication and collaboration.…”

As a disruptive information and communication technology (ICT) in the architecture, engineering, construction, and operation (AECO) industry, building information modeling (BIM) enables project teams to manage a project via a modelbased cooperative approach. Although it has a widespread impact on the industry, the systematic implementation of BIM in projects faces challenges. This study integrates BIM into the life cycle of a building project with the introduction of a conceptual framework constituted by BIM Information Flow, BIM Model Chain, BIM Workflow, BIM Institutional Environment and BIM-based Project Management Information System (PMIS). This conceptual framework identifies the key areas for integrating BIM into the project life cycle and explains how BIM works for project management practice. Through an ethnographic action research approach, the study develops a BIM roadmap for the project life cycle by systematically implementing BIM in the building project. The major findings and pieces of evidence derived via the implementation support the conceptual framework. The following discussions explain how BIM disrupt the project from the perspective of organization design and clarify the contributions of this study in project management as well as BIM adoption and integration. Finally, the conclusions focus on the development of this research, the role of the conceptual framework to underlie the BIM roadmap, and the research This is the Pre-Published Version. https://doi.org/10.1061/(ASCE)ME.1943-5479.0000647 limitations. Recommendations are provided towards future research works.

“…Decrease in the cost of LADAR device and its increased reliability make LADAR an attractive tool in construction monitoring and control. Currently, LADAR has been widely used in materials tracking, mechanical monitoring, schedule tracking, quality control and construction safety monitoring [9] . Comparisons of spatial information collection techniques are shown in Table 3.…”

Great amount of information is generated during the construction stage of an engineering project, and ineffectiveness in collecting the construction information will bring adverse effects on the achievement of project objectives. This paper firstly puts forward an original conception of 'meticulous collection methods of construction information', based on the evidence-based science theory. Then this paper conducts a three-class meticulous classification of the regular construction information. In combination with advanced information collection techniques and the characteristics of the construction information, the meticulous collection system of construction information is designed. The proposed system is proved to be instrumental by a case project and the proposed meticulous collection techniques of steel members implemented in the case project has been proved to be effective and convenient. This research offers a new perspective for construction information collection and provides useful inputs for project managers to improve the management efficiency of construction information. The system established in this paper will accelerate the development and combination of information collection techniques and project construction, and therefore boost the informatization process of engineering projects.
