DX of Construction: Perspective of BIM/CIM

Abstract

The concept of “i-Construction” is being promoted to improve productivity at construction sites by utilizing ICT and other technologies throughout various processes, from surveying and measurement to design, construction, and maintenance. In this context, there is growing interest in BIM/CIM (Building/Construction Information Modeling) as an information infrastructure to drive digital transformation (DX) in the construction sector. This paper collects and publishes discussions on the efforts related to BIM/CIM, including past initiatives, international standardization, domestic standards and applications, as well as its practical use in design and construction, highlighting contributions from industry, government, and academia.
