Application of Building Information Modelling (BIM) Concept for Residential Building

Building Information Modeling (BIM) has become increasingly adopted in large-scale construction projects; however, its application in residential construction and bungalows remains less explored. This paper investigates the potential benefits of BIM for residential building projects. It examines how BIM can enhance design accuracy, improve collaboration among stakeholders involved in residential construction, and optimize project delivery. The research explores the use of BIM for tasks such as creating 3D models with rich data on materials and specifications, which aids in generating construction documentation with enhanced clarity. Through a review of existing literature and potential case studies, this paper evaluates the cost-effectiveness of BIM for residential projects, considering the potential for reduced rework and improved project efficiency. The findings aim to contribute to a broader understanding of BIM’s value in the field of residential building.
