Proponents claim that the adoption of building information modeling BIM will lead to greater efficiencies through increased collaboration. In this paper, we present research that examines the use of BIM technologies for mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire life safety systems often referred to as MEP coordination and how the introduction of BIM influences collaboration and communication. ...

Abstract. The preservation of historic buildings can often be particularly difficult due to the lack detailed information about architectural features, construction details, etc.. However, in recent years considerable technological innovation field Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) has been achieved by Building Information Modeling (BIM) process. BIM was developed as a methodolo...

BIM (eng. Building Information Modeling) predstavlja izgradnju digitalnog integrisanog modela postojeće ili buduće izgrađene okoline, prateći i planirajući njenu izgradnju.

Building information modeling (BIM) tools are increasingly present in the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry. This software tool chain not only requires new knowledge on the level of technology, but moreover, a new knowledge of people related skills and re-configuration of the process. There is hope that BIM tools will increase the degree of process integration and suppor...

According as the Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) Industry projects have grown more complex and larger, the number of utilization of BIM for 3D design and simulation is increasing significantly. Therefore, typical applications of BIM such as clash detection and alternative measures based on 3-dimenstional planning are expanded to process management, cost and quantity management,...

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a recent construction process based on a 3D model, containing every component related to the building achievement. Architects, structure engineers, method engineers, and others participant to the building process work on this model through the design-to-construction cycle. The high complexity and the large amount of information included in these models rai...

The selection and development of a project location is critical to the success of a green building project. LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is one of the most popular Green Building certification systems in the world. Traditionally in LEED design, architects and designers have to analyze project location based on traditional maps with manual calculations, which require a si...

Construction education needs to embrace the opportunities and overcome the challenges presented by Building Information Modeling (BIM) to remain current and relevant. Although a growing number of university architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) programs have begun to offer courses that include BIM content, few programs have strategies in place to fully integrate BIM across curriculum...

This paper will describe a new approach towards electronic public procurement of construction and public Works. The paper will analyse how the new Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) are changing the processes within the Building and Construction sector, namely the Building Information Modeling (BIM) approach combined with the Model-Driven Architecture, Service-Oriented Architectur...
