O papel do BIM na colaboração e comunicação em projetos de construção civil

Abstract

This study aims to identify improvements in collaboration and communication in the construction industry scenario, through the application of Building Information Modeling (BIM) in building projects. For this, a systematic review of the literature was carried out in the last 10 years. The most cited benefits of BIM include improvement in interprofessional integration, evaluation of solutions through building performance simulation, improvement in visualization with the use of 3D models and reduction of errors and conflicts in projects. However, benefits related to sustainability and operation and maintenance were less cited. The implementation of BIM faces challenges such as resistance to technological change in the construction industry, the need for financial investment and interoperability issues. Despite the challenges, case studies show that BIM can improve the accuracy, consistency and detailing of projects, as well as reduce costs and construction time. The potential of BIM in the operation and maintenance phase has not yet been fully explored, highlighting the need for future research to explore how it can be used throughout the entire life cycle of the enterprise. The analysis of the selected studies revealed an increase in interest in the application of BIM in construction in recent years, with Europe and Asia leading in terms of quantity of published studies.
