“…One of the latest endeavors for BIM is to integrate with the game engine for various applications in the construction sector, such as collaborative decision-making (Du et al, 2018), interactive design change (Panya et al, 2023), and construction project monitoring (Pour Rahimian et al, 2020). Ratajczak et al (2019) proposed a working prototype of augmented reality for construction (AR4C).…”

Building Information Modeling (BIM) has unique features that improve safety management in construction by visually identifying potential risks. Integrating BIM with a real-time game engine is a cutting-edge idea for more effective safety management. This study aims to conduct two case studies by integrating BIM data with game engines from two aspects: 1) Construction Safety Training and 2) Pre-construction Safety Management. A framework that covers techniques for extraction of safety ideas, managing the game engine, and character modeling tools and resources is used to carry out the case studies. In the first case study, a construction site was created by Revit, and a real-life scaffolding failure accident was simulated by Unity to warn workers to prevent similar future events. The second case study was conducted on the procedure of evacuation modeling in an emergency, integrating a BIM model and Unity following distinct pathways. This evacuation modeling can be used as a training platform for the occupants to acquaint themselves with the inside facility, show directions of the shortest evacuation path from specific points, and provide necessary information on emergency equipment. Finally, the study explains how the integration of the BIM model and game engine applications can be applied for effective, straightforward, and helpful safety management with the most efficient BIM data transition.

“…For instance, to involve end-users in the design process, Balali et al (2018) introduced a BIM-VR integrated model enabling various stakeholders to visualize and compare different wall alternatives and their related costs to select the best option during the preconstruction phase. Panya et al (2023) presented a BIM-VR/AR (Augmented Reality) integrated methodology to improve BIM capabilities to be used by various stakeholders to reduce the effect of changes in the design by capturing the design errors at the early stages. Wu et al (2019) proposed an avatar-based communication platform called VBR (the virtual building information modeling (BIM) reviewer) by integrating BIM and VR to address the communication issues allowing users to animate into the BIM model to find problems from their individual perspectives.…”

While the Canadian population ages, designers are encountering new challenges that significantly affect the design of new houses. This demographic shift will impose major changes in the demand for housing toward more adaptable and specialized homes that require designers to develop new strategic design solutions. Presently, the main challenge to designers when creating age-in-place houses is lacking the knowledge about the requirements of that type of homes. Therefore, this study describes the development of a Semi-automated computer model that offers designers and users a unique opportunity to do real-time simulation in an interactive environment while enhancing the communication and interaction between owners and designers to meet inhabitants' needs by reducing future modifications and alterations of houses to age in them. The said model is a cloud-based integration between BIM, Universal Design (UD), Age-in-Place (AIP) design requirements, and Virtual Reality (VR) that allows owners to be engaged in the design process at the early stage to achieve efficient outcomes.

“…Gokcen et al [22] developed the building information modelling (BIM) capability assessment reference model (BIM-CAREM) for assessing the BIM capabilities of individual building life cycle stages and their processes. David et al [23] proposed that the convergence of the capabilities of BIM, virtual reality (VR), and augmented reality (AR) are integrated solutions to reduce the impact of rework in design change. As the retroft strategy determines the success of the retroftting process, Chen et al [24] proposes a decision support framework for retroftting that integrates the building information modeling (BIM) with large-scale group decision-making, which is a new application of digital technology for the retroftting of existing buildings.…”

Building information modeling (BIM) and radio-frequency identification (RFID) technologies can assist with problems in the construction quality inspection process, such as difficulties with the intelligent positioning of components, data replication, and insufficient feedback information during rework and maintenance. A novel technology BIM-FRID-integration is competent for multiparticipant information sharing in construction sector by collecting, transmitting and processing the quality defect information found in the construction process. In this study, an intelligent positioning inspection system to ensure building quality was developed using leading BIM software (Autodesk Revit in a Microsoft Visual Studio environment) and RFID handheld terminal devices. To verify the effectiveness of the framework proposed in this paper, the system was applied to a practical project, and its modeling, unique identifier (UID) components, and other information generation and export processes were analyzed. The results demonstrated that the BIM-RFID-integrated building quality intelligent inspection system proposed in this paper could realize the correlation and interaction between the BIM model and the entity component information as well as accurately locate any components with quality problems and provide quick feedback of quality inspection information and visual construction annotation disclosures.
