“…Structural engineering is a subset of civil engineering [46]. Available studies have targeted different issues of civil engineering projects concerning BIM: developments of BIM implementations [13]; communication modes [47]; information management frameworks [10]; refurbishment of historic buildings using BIM [16,48]; implementation of BIM to existing buildings [49]; sustainable buildings [8,50]; BIM adoption in different civil infrastructure facilities [26]; roles and responsibilities of BIM practitioners [51]; conceptualization of a BIM-based facilities management framework [52,53]; visualization technologies in safety management [21,23]; data classifications [54]; BIM knowledge mappings [14]; BIM research categories [55]; application of laser scan technology [56]; challenges facing the facilities management sector [52,57,58]; application of semantic web technologies; issues and recommendations for BIM and life cycle assessment tools [59]; BIM and GIS [60]; green BIM [61]; collaboration in BIM networks [19]; transportation infrastructure; road infrastructure [62]; highway maintenance [17]; role of BIM in generating big data [37], etc. ese studies have added much value to the BIM literature and have explored a wide range of fields associated with civil engineering.…”

Building information modeling (BIM) is transforming the way of work across the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry, where BIM offers vast opportunities for improving performance. BIM is therefore an area of great interest across the AEC industry in general and for the structural engineering field in particular. This paper is aimed at providing a broad picture of published papers that relate BIM with structural engineering. This overview will enhance understanding of the state of the research work on this subject, drawing upon bibliometric analysis of 369 papers. Findings provide an updated picture of how now-available studies that link BIM developments and applications in structural engineering are distributed chronologically, across journals, authors, countries, and institutions. Detailed analyses of citation networks present the cooccurrence map of keywords, citation patterns of journals and articles, the most cited journals, and the top 15 most cited articles on BIM in the area of structural engineering. Discussions demonstrate that research on BIM applications for structural engineering has been constantly growing with a sudden increase after 2014. This study reveals that research attempts on this area have been dominated by exploring generic issues of BIM like information management; however, technical issues of structural engineering, to be resolved through BIM capabilities, have remained overlooked. Moreover, the research work in this area is found to be conducted largely in isolation, comprising disjointed and fragmented research studies. Gaps and important areas for future research include modeling of structural components, automation of the assembly sequence, planning and optimization of off-site construction, and dynamic structural health monitoring.

“…The independent-samples t-test results revealed that none of the 32 drivers obtained hugely different mean scores between the two groups of surveyed organizations. This result was reasonable, because in a building project successful BIM implementation needs the entire team to participate, contribute, and collaborate with each other-for instance, staying in close communication and exchanging data of different disciplines [61]. The post-survey interviewees reported that, although the project stakeholders remained responsible for their respective deliverables, working on the same BIM platform was essential for effective project delivery.…”

“…Apart from the partially subsidized fees of training, consultancy, and infrastructure purchase, subsequent upgrades or subscriptions and engaging skilled personnel to create, operate, and maintain BIM models were much costlier and not subsidized. It was likely that the experienced firms had invested much but had not yet gained considerable benefits in their projects because of the high learning curve and initial productivity loss [19,61]. While the less experienced firms may focus on long-term benefits and thus set aside investments, the experienced ones faced more pressures of reducing costs if they still could not fully reap the BIM benefits after completing several projects.…”

“…However, the more stakeholders there were on board, the more confusing and cumbersome the decision-making and data sharing process became, and the more important it was to have very clear rules of engagement [25,58]. Thus, the experienced firms would experience more problems from this process when implementing BIM [61]. Financial benefits cannot outweigh implementation and maintenance costs (H08)…”

Diffusion of Building Information Modeling in Building Projects and Firms in Singapore

et al. 2020

Building information modeling (BIM) implementation has been mandated in building projects in Singapore, but a wider adoption is still desired. This study aims to investigate the factors influencing BIM diffusion and examine how the factors influence firms with different project roles, firm sizes, and BIM implementation experience. The results of a pilot study, a questionnaire survey with 89 professionals, and five post-survey interviews showed that hindrances related to inadequate multi-party collaboration (whether formal or informal), conservative mindset, limited skills, costly infrastructure and training, and multi-discipline model integration were the most influential, whereas drivers associated with project leadership team’s strategic consensus, multi-disciplinary design coordination, training, and government regulations were top-ranked. Subgroup analyses between pairs of firms with different characteristics revealed that while construction firms and less experienced stakeholders tended to underestimate BIM implementation difficulties, small-medium contractors might underestimate relevant benefits. The findings and managerial recommendations help different types of firms prioritize resources to overcome hindrances, seize opportunities (such as gaining a competitive edge from BIM practical experience), and obtain support from workers executing BIM daily. With major stakeholders’ recognition and implementation, BIM can be successfully diffused in building projects and firms. The Singapore government and other countries can refer to this study when further issuing BIM diffusion policies.

“…Studies of design-use relationships over different phases in construction projects (Papadonikolaki, Vrijhoef, & Wamelink, 2016) or of reciprocity between construction and asset management (Matthews, Love, Mewburn, Stobaus, & Ramanayaka, 2018), found sporadic, adhoc, distributed collaboration patterns in BIM innovation. These findings relate directly to a performative perspective, which emphasizes the relational and temporal aspects of digital innovation.…”

Lecture Notes in Information Systems and Organization-LNISO-is a series of scientific books that explore the current scenario of information systems, in particular IS and organization. The focus on the relationship between IT, IS and organization is the common thread of this collection, which aspires to provide scholars across the world with a point of reference and comparison in the study and research of information systems and organization. LNISO is the publication forum for the community of scholars investigating behavioral and design aspects of IS and organization.

Given the plurality of views that it offers, the book is particularly relevant for digital technology users, companies, scientists, and governments. The overall spread of digital and technological advances is enhanced or hampered by people's skills, behaviors, and attitudes. The challenge of balancing the digital dimension with humans situated in specific contexts, relations, and networks has sparked a growing interest in how people use and respond to digital innovations. The content of the book is based on a selection of the best papers-original double-blind peer-reviewed contributionspresented ...
