ABSTRACT

Building Information Modelling (BIM) is an integrative technology that offers an array of benefits in several aspects ofArchitecture Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry. Among the accredited benefits of BIM, we find visualization, automatic generation of drawings, code reviews, construction sequencing (Azhar, 2011) and (Liu et al., 2010). Also, there are reports of cost and time reduction, communication and coordination improvement, quality increase, negative risk reduction, scope clarification, organization improvement, fewer software issues, fewer returns for information and lower design costs and contractor costs (Bryde, 2013) and (Barlish, 2012). From the above, BIM has a significant impact not only in design, but additionally upon the managing of anAEC project.
