An investigation into collaboration in Building Information Modelling-based Construction Networks (BbCNs)

Abstract

This study investigated inefficient collaboration in the Building Information Modelling (BIM) process. It developed a model by identifying influential factors to effective collaboration in BIM-enabled projects. The findings indicated that unlike the common belief, technology is not the main factor, but factors such as knowledge, training, ethics, and motivation etc. are more critical to effective collaboration in BIM-enabled projects
