The Prospects of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Intelligent Construction in Civil Engineering for Digital Transformation

Abstract

This paper explores two significant technologies, Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Intelligent Construction, in the context of digital transformation in the field of civil engineering. Firstly, the definition, principles, and importance of BIM are introduced, along with its applications in design, construction, and project management. Subsequently, the definition, key features, advantages, and case studies of Intelligent Construction in civil engineering are discussed. The integration of BIM and Intelligent Construction is then examined, including the synergies between the two, potential applications in civil engineering, and the enhanced project planning, collaboration, and efficiency resulting from the integration. Finally, the future outlook and challenges of BIM and Intelligent Construction are presented, along with strategies for promoting their widespread adoption and implementation.
