With the growth of the domestic architectural design sector, Building Information Modeling (BIM) has been gradually adopted in the construction industry, revealing its substantial commercial potential. Yet, the current use of BIM still faces notable limitations. The economic and social benefits that BIM promises to bring to the construction engineering revolution are only partially realized.
Over the past decade, BIM technology has made significant strides in construction engineering across countries and regions including the United States, Japan, and Hong Kong. Many forward-thinking domestic construction companies have started exploring ways to leverage BIM to improve project management and strengthen their core competitiveness.
The true value of BIM lies in its ability to integrate the entire lifecycle of a building. However, the focus on BIM data during the three stages—planning, design, and construction—has led to a somewhat narrow perception that BIM is merely a software tool, and that BIM-related knowledge falls solely under the responsibility of design institutes.
