Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Building Information Modeling (BIM) brings together all stakeholders involved in the built environment to explore challenges, opportunities, the latest tools, innovative strategies, and integration with other technologies. BIM is now combined with many other advanced technologies, such as Digital Twins, the Internet of Things (IoT), Blockchain, and Artificial Intelligence (AI), to improve facilities' efficiency, safety, sustainability, and resilience.
This Special Issue aims to introduce and present these advancements to researchers, scientists, engineers, architects, contractors, owners, and other professionals interested in these topics.
We invite research studies, both theoretical and experimental, as well as review papers for submission to this Special Issue. Relevant topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- BIM in architectural and structural design.
- BIM in infrastructure design and construction.
- BIM and construction management and engineering.
- BIM and Blockchain.
- Digital Twins.
- BIM and IoT.
- BIM and City Information Modeling (CIM).
- AI applications in a BIM environment.
- Role of BIM in sustainability and resilience.
- BIM, AI, and contracts in legal aspects.
