ABSTRACT
The building construction industry continues facing challenges that affect project delivery, with traditional practices used for Building Material Scheduling (BMS) being one of them. Studies indicate that these practices are less efficient and prone to errors, negatively affecting project objectives. Building Information Modeling (BIM) presents a promising solution for addressing these challenges, proven through existing integrations. However, its adoption in BMS practices in the construction industry is still relatively low. This study proposes a BIM-based web model for BMS. The model was developed with JavaScript language and MongoDB using a web browser to extract data from the user input, compute the required building materials, store projects, and facilitate collaboration among the project teams. This information helps create a detailed plan for material delivery, storage, and usage on a project and is also critical in optimizing materials use and reducing waste while ensuring teamwork.
