Abstract
This paper intended to investigate the potential use of Building Information Modeling (BIM) as an assessment tool that can evaluate and support optimization of sustainable design quality, especially for low-income housing or “Masyarakat Berpenghasilan Rendah” (MBR) in Indonesia. The consideration of sustainability aspects in the preliminary design phase is no longer a choice but a need for every stakeholder involved in the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry. BIM here was developed to be the effective technology that supports all stakeholders in integrating the needs of sustainable building design through sustainable workflow which is also known as “Green BIM”. The first phase of this study is conducting a critical review of integration between BIM and Green Building Rating System for Home, including LEED, BREEAM, GBI, Green Mark, and GREENSHIP. Then it is followed by reviewing BIM implementation in the housing sector based on case studies in several countries. The findings revealed that there is a potential use of BIM for small-scale project especially to support the sustainability of MBR in Indonesia. Even so, there are also challenges to be considered, including financial support and incentives from the government in the effort of implementing this Green BIM approach.
