How many types of BIM are there?
BIM dimensions give you a better understanding of your construction project and the process of linking additional dimensions of data to your building models. In this section, we will explore different BIM dimensions, namely 2D, 3D, 4D, 5D, 6D, and 7D BIM dimensions.
How do I start a BIM project?
5 Steps to BIM Success
- Step 1: Start at the ground floor. It’s a good thing you didn’t skip ahead: this part is important.
- Step 2: Assemble your team. Once you’ve decided to use BIM, pick the right people for a pilot project.
- Step 3: Launch a pilot.
- Step 4: Document progress.

What is BIM topics?
The overall goal of the BIM TOPiCS research group is to address these challenges by developing tools and techniques for BIM use that support project teams with the digital delivery of sustainable buildings through the collaborative use of building information modeling (BIM) and related processes and tools.
How can we improve the coverage of BIM research?
The simple methodology adopted, shear extent of review effort and visual nature of analysis provide an excellent overview of BIM research coverage. The approach taken represents a solid basis for researchers to expand this study by analyzing more publications and identify the knowledge gaps to be addressed in the BIM domain [Editor].
Is BIM research relevant to the project lifecycle?
There is an increasing need to critically evaluate the BIM research covering a building’s Project Lifecycle. This is intended to combine present-day’s “body of knowledge” and deliver a comprehensive perspective of global BIM research conducted to date.
How many BIM implementation research papers are there?
Within the 1000 papers reviewed, 445 were tagged by these CMUs and – as illustrated in Figure 2b – BIM Implementation was the most researched CMU with 29\% of all papers falling under this category. Also, BIM for Collaboration Communication and Coordination (hereinafter BIM for CCC) was a close second with 28\% of all papers covered.
