Adoption of Building Information Modelling (BIM) tools during pre-construction stage in Malaysian construction industry

The construction industry believes that Building Information Modelling (BIM) is a platform that has the potential to promote an intensive construction activity especially in reducing the time and productivity towards the evolution of industry 4.0. The goal of this study is to explore the process and...

Civil engineering (General) The construction industry believes that Building Information Modelling (BIM) is a platform that has the potential to promote an intensive construction activity especially in reducing the time and productivity towards the evolution of industry 4.0. The goal of this study is to explore the process and the level of BIM tools implemented in the Malaysian. Lack of government involvement worsens the current situation besides having the resistance to change from construction players. To reduce the resistance for adopting BIM, most of the companies came out with own strategy such as developing new BIM unit, developing training and education program, changing management style and developing new roles and responsibilities. These activities could facilitate the organisations in adopting BIM tools. BIM is not only a technology, but it is also involved in changing the current practices and processes including changing managerial function and hierarchy, including roles and responsibilities. This study also identified that the adoption BIM Level in the Malaysian is between Level 0 and 2. However, the number will increase as Construction Industry Development Board (CIDB) has enhanced a lot of seminar, talks and conferences regarding BIM adoption. Thus, the identification of BIM tools adoption factor is essential to assist the companies to continue adopting BIM in real practices. Hence, the objective of this research is to explicate the BIM adoption factors from various literature and distributing questionnaires to gather data, as a basis to develop a research framework for analyse the data obtained, and (1)to study the extent of construction players in adopting BIM during pre-construction stage.(2) to identify the effects of BIM implementation during pre-construction stage.(3) to determine the best solutions of BIM implementation during pre-construction stage. 2018-12 Thesis http://eprints.utm.my/id/eprint/81096/ http://eprints.utm.my/id/eprint/81096/1/MakTuckKiongMSJA2018.pdf application/pdf en public http://dms.library.utm.my:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:124990 masters Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Faculty of Engineering - School of Civil Engineering Faculty of Engineering - School of Civil Engineering
