  1. 1. BIM in Translation : Exploring Client Organisations as Drivers for Change in Construction

    Author : Hannes Lindblad; Tina Karrbom Gustavsson; Marcus Lindahl; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : New technology is constantly being developed, presenting new opportunities and enabling innovative solutions to both known and unknown problems. Most industries place a large amount of trust in the opportunities offered by digitalisation. Information technology is being developed to enable new work practices and thereby drive change.

  2. 2. Total BIM: Toward transforming construction

    Author : Oliver Disney; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Model-based construction; Total BIM.; Data-driven construction; Drawingless; BIM; Building Information Modeling;

    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

  3. 3. Lost in Translation : A case of BIM implementation at a large public client

    Author : Hannes Lindblad; Väino Tarandi; Henrik Linderoth; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Technology driven change; Building information modelling; BIM; Sociology of translation; Implementation; Innovation; Actor-Network theory; Real Estate and Construction Management; Fastigheter och byggande;

    Abstract : The technology of Building Information Modelling (BIM) is being introduced to the Architectural, Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry. This industry is generally perceived as being fragmented, having low productivity and with a low rate of innovation. READ MORE

  4. 4. Structures for supporting BIM-based automation in the design process

    Author : Jani Mukkavaara; Thomas Olofsson; Gustav Jansson; Marcus Sandberg; Fredrik Elgh; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; BIM; Automation; Distributed System; Information; Structures; Byggproduktion och teknik; Construction Management and Building Technology;

    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.

  5. 5. Integrated design and construction for bridges: key aspects and benefits

    Author : Daniel P T Ekström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; industrialized construction; ICT; concurrent engineering; BIM; integrated design; Lean Construction; Integration in construction;

    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.
