BIM + healthcare: On the view of a primary healthcare renovation project

Abstract

Currently BIM is at the forefront of the building industry. While useful for various building types the definitive nature of healthcare design benefits from the BIM process largely in comparison to other building types. In this paper BIM is employed for phasing the design process of the healthcare project, creating modelling prototypes and making reference to a baseline model in order to increase the overall success of the healthcare design project. ©2010, Association for Research in Computer-Aided Architectural Research in Asia (CAADRIA).
