Abstract
Construction industry is one of the largest economic sector in the world in 2017. And Building Information Modeling (BIM) is the powerful set of technology to design, construction and management has been strengthen the construction industry. BIM has significant benefits for the project lifecycle even after it‘s lifecycle but this benefits can‘t gain by the project because of failure to successful implementation of BIM technology to the construction industry. The main objectives of this study is to identify the most crucial barrier to implementation of BIM and develop a relative rank with their relative impact on this issue. The study was conducted by a comprehensive literature review and necessary data was collected by literature review also. A set of barrier was developed by the literature review containing 37 barrier which curb the implementation of BIM technology to the construction sector. Relative rank based on their frequency and relative impact was calculate for each barrier identified in the literature review. The five most crucial barrier to the implementation of BIM are B17 (Social and habitual resistance to change), B19 (Traditional methods of contracting), B3 (Training expenses and the learning curve are too expensive), B20 (High cost of software purchasing) and B33 (Lack of awareness about BIM). And the five most impactful barrier are B19 (Traditional methods of contracting), B17 (Social and habitual resistance to change), B33 (Lack of awareness about BIM), B2 (Unavailability of proper training on BIM) and B28 (Lack of BIM experts). To gain the tremendous benefits of BIM technology, it is necessary to overcome the barrier based on priority with the help of government and all the stakeholder of project.
Highlights
According to Autodesk, the developer of various Building Information Modeling (BIM) tools “BIM (Building Information Modeling) is an intelligent 3D model-based process that gives architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) professionals the insight and tools to more efficiently plan, design, construct, and manage buildings and infrastructure” [1]
The objectives of this study is to identify the critical barrier to implementation of BIM technology to the construction industry by conducting a comprehensive literature review
Enough evidence proved that building information Modelling (BIM) can promote the construction performance the rate of implementation of BIM within the construction industry has been at a slow tempo
Summary
According to Autodesk, the developer of various Building Information Modeling (BIM) tools “BIM (Building Information Modeling) is an intelligent 3D model-based process that gives architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) professionals the insight and tools to more efficiently plan, design, construct, and manage buildings and infrastructure” [1]. Another definition is “a digital representation of physical and functional characteristics of a facility. The BIM technology can integrate design, construction, maintenance and control It is a rich model with sufficient data for the lifecycle and assist all stakeholders with improvements in performance efficiency. Identify the relative impact of each barrier to implementation to the industry
