It is an open fact that building information modelling (BIM) have been and is still expanding its usefulness across professional specialization in the building industry. Building Information Modelling (BIM) as a new way of doing things in the building industry and it is a system that is rapidly revolutionizing entire process therein. It is also apparent that most professionals in the building industry are aware and willing to embed the BIM culture but with absolute little to no knowledge about it workability. This is the major challenges, which is as a result of lack of BIM integration to education. This paper therefore seeks prominent works of researchers in BIM and the apparent benefits so far gained and still to be gained with BIM integration to higher education in Malaysia. Thus attempting to proffer an integration strategic that will facilitate an adequate smooth BIM adoption in the building industry, this will boost building project delivery and mitigate against shortcomings of the traditional delivery processes.

Unternehmen des produzierenden Gewerbes sind mit einem zunehmend dynamischen Marktumfeld konfrontiert, weshalb fabrikplanerische Anpassungen immer schneller erfolgen müssen. Der größte Zeitanteil in Fabrikplanungsprojekten wird jedoch für die Datensuche, -aufbereitung und den anschließenden Informationsaustausch zwischen den unterschiedlichen Beteiligten aufgewendet. Um diesen Aufwand zu reduzieren, wird ein Konzept zur kollaborativen Fabrikplanung mit Building Information Modeling vorgestellt.   The production industry is facing increasingly dynamic market conditions. Therefore, the adaption of production systems must happen ever more quickly. However, data acquisition, processing and the subsequent exchange of information takes up a lot of time in factory planning projects. To reduce this effort, the paper introduces a method for collaborative factory planning based on building information modelling.

The aim of the work is to present the efficiency of the establishment BIM into the building industry on the created dynamical model related to the extent to the complexity of buildings, in which Building Information Modeling (BIM) has been used as „a tool of the industry revolution 4.0 in the CZE”. The work shows the rank of the influence in establishment of new technologies 4.0 and Internet issues on increasing demands and complexity of buildings and their safety. A result of simulation in the dynamical model emerges the conclusion why we should be interested in the rise of the complexity extent of processes of the buildings in relation to corresponding cost of BIM. It shows that the establishment of BIM achieves the necessary extent of the efficiency, i.e. in what assumptions and parameters the significant reduction of the direct or indirect costs has been achieved in the construction, management of the buildings and the facilities in their life cycle.

Studies revealed that most heritage buildings in Malaysia are deteriorating due to poor maintenance of recorded documentation. Unfortunately, conserving heritage buildings is a complex and multi-layered process that requires collaboration between different stakeholders. Heritage Building Information Modeling (HBIM) is seen as an opportunity to establish a well-managed data collection. This paper attempts to examine the awareness, benefits and challenges of the implementation of BIM among stakeholders. Sixty-nine respondents with BIM knowledge and skills answered the questionnaire. Findings show significant attributes that could improve building conservation project performance, delivery and management, hence several challenges that need further improvement.

The Building Information Modeling (BIM) has now become a collaborative system that greatly benefits the industries involved in the AEC sector. The essence of BIM is to be a container core with graphic and alphanumeric information, where each discipline participatory dump their knowledge to suit the peculiarities of the building in coordination with the other agents involved. If this same scenario is moved to Heritage, we see that the needs are the same; archaeologist, architect, historian, restorer or engineer are at the same crossroads when it comes to passing on their assumptions and subject to debate before approval. The article will present an effective methodology to implement the stratigraphic study of surfaces. The intention is to dump the information gathered in Phase auscultation in a single graphical model, operating from different disciplines and allows inter operationalize avoiding unnecessary data duplication and contradictory. An intervention project supported by an information model of the Historic Building, which we can call HBIM Project (Historic Building Information Modelling Project) is established.

Building Information Modelling is further globalising Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) professional partnerships. However, little is known on the effect of cultural and human factors on BIM enabled visualisation applications. This desktop study examined the extant literature on factors relating to application of BIM enabled visualisation technologies as a process that can improve, leverage and conduct visual communication for coordination during implementation of global projects. It identifies BIM enabled visualisation having the capability in facilitating knowledge flows in complex discontinuous working environment of a property development’s life cycle, and supports designers’ understanding in its early working phases. This paper presents the development of a theoretical proposition for embedding local work culture etiquette in BIM enabled visualisation application for augmenting dynamic knowledge transfer among discontinuous members in a building project. The result is expected to benefit rapidly developing countries, e.g. Malaysia, in enabling successful partnerships with counterparts from developed countries.

With the increasing number of nearly zero-energy buildings (NZEB) due to increase of global awareness on climate change, the new concepts of design and control must be developed because of great NZEB dependency on detailing and multidisciplinary approach. This paper proposes a three-level gateway control method for NZEB project delivery by using digital representation of the building in building information modeling (BIM) environment. These controls (C1, C2 and C3) are introduced before three main phases of any project delivery—design phase, construction phase and handover. The proposed project control procedure uses black-box building energy modeling within the BIM environment, so the paper explores the reliability of one tool for direct energy modeling within the BIM-authoring software. The paper shows two types of validation tests with satisfactory results. This leads to conclusion that analyzed tool for energy simulation within BIM environment can be used in a way that is described in a proposed project control procedure. For further research it is proposed to explore reliability of tools for energy simulation connected to other BIM-authoring software, so this project control procedure could be independent of BIM-authoring software used in the paper.
