Analysis of Awareness and Utilization of BIM in Civil Engineering ()
Abstract
Recently, Building Information Modeling (BIM) has
emerged as a hot topic in the construction industry. However, the application
of civil engineering, both domestic and foreign, is minor because of the
distribution in a wide area, highly liner dependence and difficulty to take
advantage of the standard library. Civil
engineering requires a lot of time and financial resources compared to
architectural engineering. If BIM is completely applied to civil engineering,
it will be possible to manage the schedule and cost using 3D and facilitates
effective communication between various stakeholders. For the application of
BIM in civil engineering, we surveyed the awareness, utilization and
effectiveness of BIM on the civil engineering companies. Also, we derived necessary
improvements and analyzed new business areas for BIM application. The results
of the study will be used as a reference of development for SOC civil
engineering BIM ordering guide and related standard.
