1. Total BIM: Toward transforming construction
Abstract : Building Information Modeling (BIM) was expected to rapidly transform the construction industry, but its uptake has been unexpectedly slow. Furthermore, even state-of-the-art BIM projects have been challenged by hardware and software issues, limiting BIM’s implementation in the construction phase. READ MORE

2. Integrated design and construction for bridges: key aspects and benefits
Abstract : The rate of productivity and innovation capacity within the Swedish construction industry of today is perceived to lead to a poor return of investment within infrastructures. Bridges, are commonly designed for a long service-life, and all stages after realization is greatly dependent on and constrained by decisions made during design and construction of the structure.

3. Developing a collaborative planning tool for construction - A Building Information Model-enhanced planning and scheduling tool for production
Abstract : Construction projects are becoming increasingly complex with a higher degree of specialization, resulting in more sub-contractors as well as in more information needed in the project. This results in a bigger project organization with an increased need for information exchange, an area where construction has been criticized by academics. READ MORE

4. Collaborative production planning with BIM – Design, development and evaluation of a Virtual Production Planning system
Abstract : Construction projects have for a long time been characterized by increased specialization, low productivity, and a fragmented information exchange culture, resulting in inefficient work processes, with time delays and budget overruns. Research within the context of construction planning and scheduling and IT points to improving communication, collaboration, and cooperation to address these problems. READ MORE

5. Structures for supporting BIM-based automation in the design process
Abstract : During recent decades the advent of IT in the construction industry has prompted a gradual shift from manual paper-based processes to computer-aided design and production. In this shift there has been an increasing interest in the application of building information modelling (BIM) for the overall management of information throughout the lifecycle of a building.
