“…Por su parte el BIM representa un verdadero cambio en la manera de pensar el proyecto. La importancia del BIM no se limita a la representación en 3d, ya que también "contribuye a la toma de decisiones del diseño, producir documentos constructivos de alta calidad, predecir el rendimiento, estimar costos, planificar la construcción e incluso mantenimiento y operaciones en la etapa final" (Aslani, Griffis, & Chiarelli, 2009;Lee, Wong, & Tong, 2014).…”

“…BIM is becoming more prevalent in the construction industry (Arayici et al 2011) and change management has been identified as an important application area (Aslani et al 2009;Hajian and Becerik-Gerber 2009). Moreover, the capability of integrating time and cost within BIM (4D or 5D integration) along with the prospects for the integration of data from multiple disciplines and sources via BIM-servers, demonstrates the significant potential of BIM to facilitate the management of changes throughout the project life cycle.…”

Successful management of design changes is critical for the efficient delivery of construction projects. Building information modeling (BIM) is envisioned to play an important role in integrating design, construction and facility management processes through coordinated changes throughout the project life-cycle. BIM currently provides significant benefits in coordinating changes across different views in a single model, and identifying conflicts between different discipline-specific models. However, current BIM tools provide limited support in managing changes across several discipline-specific models. This paper describes an approach to represent, coordinate, and track changes within a collaborative multi-disciplinary BIM environment. This approach was informed by a detailed case study of a large, complex, fast-tracked BIM project where we investigated numerous design changes, analyzed change management processes, and evaluated existing BIM tools. Our approach characterizes design changes in an ontology to represent changed component attributes, dependencies between components, and change impacts. It explores different types of dependencies amongst different design changes and describes how a graph-based approach and dependency matrix could assist with automating the propagation and impact of changes in a BIM-based project delivery process.Résumé : Il est essentiel de gérer au mieux les modifications de conception pour pouvoir mener efficacement à leur terme les projets de construction. La modélisation des données du bâtiment (Building Information Modeling ou BIM) est destinée à jouer un rôle important en intégrant dans un seul système les processus de conception, de construction et de gestion d'installations par l'intermédiaire de modifications coordonnées tout au long du cycle de vie d'un projet. La BIM présente de gros avantages, car elle permet de coordonner les modifications par le biais de vues différentes dans un modèle unique et de repérer les conflits entre divers modèles propres à des disciplines particulières. Cependant, les outils BIM actuels apportent peu d'aide à la gestion des modifications dans plusieurs modèles spécifiques à des disciplines particulières. Le présent article décrit une méthode de représentation, de coordination et de suivi des modifications dans un environnement BIM collaboratif et pluridisciplinaire. Cette méthode a été mise au point à l'aide d'une étude de cas approfondie portant sur un projet BIM de grande envergure, complexe, mené de manière accélérée et au cours duquel nous avons examiné un grand nombre de modifications de conception, analysé des processus de gestion des modifications et évalué les outils BIM existants. Notre méthode caractérise les modifications de conception sous la forme d'une ontologie visant à représenter les attributs des composants modifiés, les dépendances entre composants et les effets des modifications. Elle explore également différents types de dépendances parmi diverses modifications de conception et décrit comment une approche graphique et une m...

“…The value of BIM information lies not only in 3D visualisation, but, more importantly, in design decision-making, producing high-quality construction documents, predicting performance, cost-estimations, construction planning, and even for facilities operation and management at a later stage (Aslani, Griffis and Chiarelli, 2009;Chan, Li and Skitmore, 2012;Hu, Zhang and Deng, 2008;Kim, Kim, Park and Kim, 2011). Recent research in Hong Kong recommends that the industry hasten the transition from 2D CAD to BIM by exploring how to adopt common BIM standards such as specifying modelling method and the level of detail expected of a 3D BIM (Tse, Wong and Wong, 2005).…”

Building Information Modelling (BIM) technology is a powerful technology but is rather new to Hong Kong. The impacts and adoption of BIM in the context of Hong Kong building and construction industry requires an in depth study in order to provide insights for industry to leverage its power. The aim of this research was therefore to identify barriers that affect the adoption of BIM technology in the Hong Kong building and construction industry. A qualitative analysis was conducted on five professionals and experts in Hong Kong building and construction industry to study the effects of the variables of adoption of Building Information Modelling technology. The research results support the research questions and ISSN 2162-4860 2014 www.macrothink.org/ber 223 also bring contributions to both academia and the professional environments in the body of knowledge in the BIM field about major factors affecting user adoption of BIM software technology in the Hong Kong building and construction industry.
