Koutamanis, A. (author)Building information modelling (BIM) has ushered in the era of symbolic building representation: building elements and spaces are described not by graphical elements but by discrete symbols, each with properties and relations that explicitly integrate all information. Digital twinning promises even more: a digital replica in complete sync with...book chapter 2024

Koutamanis, A. (author)Planning regulations determine a substantial part of buildings, but their constraints are usually not included in the setup of a BIM model or used explicitly for design guidance, but only tested in compliance checks once a model has been made. This is symptomatic of wider tendencies and ingrained biases that emphasize tacit knowledge and assume...journal article 2024

Zamzuri, A. (author), Abdul Rahman, A. (author), Hassan, M.I. (author), van Oosterom, P.J.M. (author)This paper discussed two International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standards, namely, ISO 19152 – Land Administration Domain Model (LADM) and ISO 16739 – Industry Foundation Classes (IFC), to identify three-dimensional (3D) multi-floor building rights. These days, it is challenging to characterize all multifunctional structures due to...journal article 2024

van der Vaart, J.A.J. (author), Stoter, J.E. (author), Diakite, A.A. (author), Biljecki, F. (author), Arroyo Ohori, G.A.K. (author), Hakim, Amir (author)Although level of detail (LoD) is a central concept in 3D city modelling, specifying different LoDs in an unambiguous manner is not straightforward. To resolve this, a set of frameworks have been developed. This paper evaluates the suitability of the LoD framework of (Biljecki et al. 2016) for 3D building models that have been generated directly...conference paper 2024

Papachristos, George (author), Papadonikolaki, E. (author), Morgan, Bethan (author)Sociotechnical transitions are mostly seen in the literature as processes where actors and technologies in small niches peripheral to an organizational field, accumulate momentum, scale up, aggregate, and eventually bring about large-scale regime change. Foundational examples include the British transition from sailing ships to steamships and...journal article 2024

Demetriades, Pavlos (author), Kalogianni, Eftychia (author), Dimopoulou, Efi (author)Building Information Model (BIM) is a powerful tool for managing and utilizing data throughout the lifecycle of buildings and infrastructure. This paper explores the options, and considerations, of using BIM data for the Land Administration (LA) domain. The ISO19152 Land Administration Domain Model (LADM), as a widely recognized international...conference paper 2023

Caporalini, Luisa (author)Digital Twin (DT) technology has transformed construction by creating virtual counterparts of real-world objects for improved project design and management. Integrating Building Information Modelling (BIM) with Game Engines (GEs) like Unity3D is crucial for effective DT implementation in construction. However, research in this area is limited,...master thesis 2023

Alonso Candau, Jaime (author)One of the crucial aspects of BIM is the data rich environment connecting project information from different sub-sectors. (Mesároš et al., 2020). Therefore, developing models with consistent and trustworthy building data has gained significant importance in the industry. In contrast, incorrect or incomplete building data in a model could result...master thesis 2023

Ammerlaan, Sophie (author)Productivity in the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry is lacking. Projects in the industry have become larger and complex, leading to increasing amounts of information involved in the life cycle of a project. The low productivity of the construction industry over the previous decades has been linked to a ‘lack of...master thesis 2023

Wang, Jinpeng (author), Zhang, Shang (author), Fenn, Peter (author), Luo, Xiaowei (author), Liu, Y. (author), Zhao, Lilin (author)Previous studies revealed that Building Information Modeling (BIM) has the potential to reduce project uncertainties, design errors, change orders, and delays, which might facilitate achieving effective dispute management in the construction industry. However, research into the adoption of BIM to holistically enhance effective dispute...review 2023

Gordon, Matthew (author), Batallé Garcia, A. (author), De Wolf, Catherine (author), Sollazzo, Aldo (author), Dubor, Alexandre (author), Wang, T. (author)To address the need for a shift from a linear to a circular economy in the built environment, this paper develops a semi-automated assistive process for planning building material deconstruction for reuse using sensing and scanning, Scan-to-BIM, and computer vision techniques. These methods are applied and tested in a real-world case study in...journal article 2023

Phan, Anh Thu Thi (author), Huynh, Thi Ngoc (author), Truong-Hong, Linh (author)Laser scanning (LS) is an effective technology for accurately capturing point clouds of visible surfaces of objects in 3D scenes. The point clouds were subsequently used for various applications, for example, generating 2D drawings of the floor or building information models (BIM) and structural inspection. However, in practice, the products...conference paper 2023

Prusti, Maarit (author)The building permit process in the Netherlands is mostly digitalized, however, there are still some issues. A downsize of information, the manual checking from the municipality, and the duration of the process are some of these issues. To overcome these issues information between 3D building design models, so-called Building Information Modeling...master thesis 2022
