Challenges of expansive uses of Building Information Modeling (BIM) in construction Projects
Building information modeling (BIM) is an emerging modeling technology, which challenges existing procedures and practices in construction industry. In this paper, we study the present uses of BIM and the potential of expansions of its use in construction projects. For this purpose four interfaces among different parties in construction projects are scrutinized. The methodological approach of the study is cultural-historical activity theory. The data is based on a case study in Finland. According to our findings, the use of BIM is spreading rapidly in the design and construction of buildings. However, the collaborative forms of BIM are still under development in the design. The use of BIM is also still limited at the other three interphases of a construction project. The adaption of BIM emerges slowly because the development of specific BIM technologies and a set of supplementary tools are required at the each interphase of a construction activity. ; Peer reviewed
