BIM maturity models have become a significant method used to show the development stage of building information modeling (BIM) and to assist in measuring BIM capability. However, most of the existing maturity models focus on the evaluation technology, but the effect of BIM is not only related to technology, and most of them are mostly used for a comprehensive evaluation of BIM capability after the event. In this paper, for the purpose of comprehensive preevaluation of BIM application maturity of the project, considering the temporary characteristics of the project, based on Nolan’s growth stage model, from the perspective of technology, social environment, and project participants, a BIM application maturity model (BIM-AMM) including 10 measurement indicators is proposed. The model integrates the Barrel Principle in accordance with the characteristics of a single project. The conditions of BIM implementation are evaluated in advance, and specific deficiencies of BIM implementation are identified; then, BIM decision-making is determined for the project. Finally, an actual project is taken as the application demonstration case of BIM-AMM, and according to the results, the obstacles faced by the project organization in adopting BIM technology and the improvement strategies are put forward. The research results further expand the BIM maturity research to the early stage of the project and provide new ideas for BIM maturity research.

Primary Impact

The publication of the National BIM Standard (NBIMS) at the end of 2007 after two years of work by the most highly diverse team ever assembled by the National Institute of Building Sciences brought a symbolic shift in the architecture, engineering, construction, and facility ownership (AECO) community. However, what impact did it have on the industry? This chapter looks at the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and impact of the NBIMS into 2009 and beyond. Specifically, this chapter will delve into some of the strengths of the NBIMS, such as promulgating a standardized approach for documenting information exchanges between stakeholders, and applying the NBIMS Interactive Capability Maturity Model (I-CMM) to evaluate a project or portfolio for BIM maturity. Opportunities exist in the areas of sustainability, modularity, and fabrication, as demonstrated in several industry projects to date. Weaknesses of the NBIMS are that it is not directly applicable yet at the technical level such as the National CAD Standard (NCS). Along with the NCS, the NBIMS and their umbrella parent organization, the Facility Information Council of the National Institute of Building Sciences are gradually being absorbed into the buildingSMART™ Alliance. Lastly, the primary impact of the NBIMS will be felt in terms of current and future projects promoting interoperable information exchange for specific stakeholders. These include multiple applications of interoperable-IFC-based approaches.

Selection Of

The adoption and structuring of Building Information Modeling (BIM) is currently one of the main goals of many Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) companies, but this scenario is still vulnerable due to the numerous simultaneous challenges related to technology, processes and culture. This promotes a sometimes wordy environment when developing the fundamental goal, definitions, steps, and attack plans for implementing BIM. Due to these circumstances, this study proposes an approach to assess readiness and maturity models aligned with the organization’s strategic perspectives, discussing aspects of performance, applicability and usability. This work was developed from a systematic literature review of maturity models in 4 databases based on the ProKnow-C method. Its bibliometric analysis resulted in the selection of 23 articles, in which it was possible to evaluate 22 BIM maturity models and analyze them according to the structure of basic design principles supported by a descriptive and prescriptive purpose of use. Therefore, it is hoped that this research will allow companies in a simplified way to identify the maturity model that best fits the stage of the building’s lifecycle in which it is inserted, supporting it in assessment as a contribution to the beginning of the digital transformation journey.

Building Information

To complete a project under the complicated situations, it is important to follow effective ways to use available tools and methods, taking into account present technology and management. Also, it is challenging to prepare accurate and achievable plans in large construction projects. Visualizing forms at an early stage in building design improves the ability of designers to deliver ideas and the capability to inspect and assess the methods helps to predict and optimize the actual presentation of the construction project. These different features form the basis for Building Information Modeling (BIM). The archetypal problems like budget overflow, lack of communication, cost overruns, overtime delays, rework can be minimized with the use of Building Information Modeling (BIM) tools for building design & resource management. In this paper, the concept of Building Information Modelling (BIM) is used for 3D modeling, which involves 4th dimension as Time (4D), 5th dimension of Cost (5D) of the project. A case study of G+5 residential apartment is presented for 3D BIM modeling and quantity take-off with the commercial software Autodesk Revit 2019. The 4D BIM carried out using Primavera P6 is explained with methodology for a case study. Further, Autodesk Navisworks Manage 2019 is used for 5D BIM, which includes a graphical presentation of the construction schedule and cost estimation of the case study.

New Ideas

The construction industry is one of the oldest industries in the world and one that continues to change with client demand. In recent decades, innovation in the construction industry has greatly improved, increasing productivity. Innovation in construction refers to the generation and implementation of new ideas to enhance the performance of construction processes and to gain economic, environmental, and social benefits. Modern innovative digital technologies in construction include application of virtual reality (VR)/augmented reality (AR), blockchain, 3D printing, building information modeling (BIM), and off-site manufacturing. This chapter will explore the application of these innovative digital technologies in construction. It will particularly include recent case studies and examples from the New Zealand construction industry.
