EXPLORING THE OPPORTUNITIES OF BUILDING INFORMATION MODELLING (BIM) FOR IMPROVEMENTS IN TRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTURE LIFECYCLE MANAGEMENT

Stanislav Emilov Dermendjiev

Building Information Modelling (BIM) is an integrated methodology for the design, construction and management of buildings in a digital environment based on complex digital modelling, controlled information exchange and effective collaboration between project participants. BIM provides structured, accessible and reliable building information, which is a prerequisite for improvements in building lifecycle management. The approach is therefore widely used in building construction today. Although BIM is also used in the domain of transport construction, it is not yet as widely adopted as in building construction. This paper is a survey of academic publications and case studies in order to explore the possible role of BIM in transport infrastructure lifecycle management and to highlight the advantages. The applications of BIM in the planning, design, implementation, operation and decommissioning phases are examined, best practices are identified and conclusions are drawn on the benefits and challenges. Prospects for the future development of BIM in transport construction are also discussed. Based on the findings, recommendations for the practical application of BIM on transport infrastructure projects are derived.
