    Building Information Modeling (BIM) Process and Assessment methods

    No full text
    The construction sector has seen the potential of Building Information Modeling (BIM) to assist a transformation in the design and construction processes. The use of BIM throughout a building project for quality control and effective information use has received very little investigation, even though it can improve design quality by reducing dispute and rework. The promise of BIM application in quality management rests in its capacity to offer multi-dimensional data including design data and time sequence due to the compatibility of design data with quality and construction process with quality control. An evolutionary method of transforming the entire building process is the 5D BIM approach. This paper introduces BIM as a strong instrument for "model analysis, detection of clashes, simulation and evaluation." In addition, BIM offers a digital machine-readable representation of building data and various other processes to enhance design, development, operating processes and boost life-cycle building functions
