Rapid LEED evaluation performed with BIM based sustainability analysis on a virtual construction project

BIM-based Sustainability Analysis: An Evaluation of Building Performance Analysis Software

With the rising cost of energy and growing environmental concerns, the demand for sustainable building facilities with minimal environmental impact is increasing. The most effective decisions regarding sustainability in a building facility are made in the early design and preconstruction stages. In this context, Building Information Modeling (BIM) can aid in performing complex building performa...

Risk Evaluation of a UHV Power Transmission Construction Project Based on a Cloud Model and FCE Method for Sustainability

In order to achieve the sustainable development of energy, Ultra High Voltage (UHV) power transmission construction projects are being established in China currently. Their high-tech nature, the massive amount of money involved, and the need for multi-agent collaboration as well as complex construction environments bring many challenges and risks. Risk management, therefore, is critical to redu...

ICT4D Project Sustainability: An ANT-based Analysis

The difficulty of sustaining ICT4D projects in developing nations is a formidable issue encountered by project managers. Addressing this issue is vital given reasons such as the opportunity cost of IT investment failure in developing-world contexts. This paper presents a study which explores the sustainability of ICT4D projects via a case study of a large-scale, nation-wide, government sector I...

Research on Cost Control of Construction Project Based on the Theory of Lean Construction and BIM: Case Study

Lean construction is a new type of management mode of construction project, which is especially suitable for those complex, changeable and speedy construction projects. Besides, building information model (BIM) is “computable digital information” created and utilized during the design and construction of buildings. This paper takes construction project as the object and combines BIM technology ...
