Abstract

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is an interesting study to be explored by technological developments. Especially with the Covid-19 pandemic, construction actors are encouraged to work according to the applicable protocol. BIM as integrated tool for managing projects from the beginning to the end of the work. On one side the classic problems of construction projects are high costs, late time, and quality that is not according to specifications. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of the use of BIM in construction projects on time and cost. A case study was carried out on a construction project that had implemented BIM. The results showed the use of BIM could cut time by 50% faster and reduce costs by 52.36%. This time and cost-effectiveness are caused by the number of workers needed and the reduced duration so that it has an impact on fundin.

Highlights

  • Building Information Modeling (BIM) has been developed into a modern technology that helps work integration in the construction industry

  • This study identifies differences in the use of the conventional BIM method which is currently still used by Indonesian construction stakeholders

  • BIM facilitates coordination between contractors and sub-contractors, this is because coordination through BIM can be done using the BIM application connected via the internet where project stakeholders can access planning data and provide corrections if needed

Summary

Introduction

Building Information Modeling (BIM) has been developed into a modern technology that helps work integration in the construction industry. Research on BIM mapping that results in the extent of knowledge about BIM and the potential integration of the BIM platform will be developed[1]. The development of BIM to green buildings has been carried out with a series of studies that direct this research very interesting[2]. BIM has been developed into other studies such as construction supply chains[3, 4]. BIM has been developed into integration with the Geographic Information System (GIS) to map geographic conditions in construction[5 – 7]. BIM research has been carried out in Malaysia to determine its effect on time and cost[9]. Time and cost reduction approach with BIM is one interesting way to be analyzed
