Building information modelling roadmap strategy for Turkish construction sector
Özet
Building information modelling (BIM) has shown itself as a leading factor in increasing the production and efficiency in the construction sector in many countries. The construction sector in Turkey has made considerable progress in recent years, but the sector lacks effective construction management and information technologies. In order to make further progress and to achieve global goals, the use of BIM is of utmost importance for the construction sector in Turkey. With this perspective, the present study aims to propose a strategic roadmap for BIM adoption to the Turkish construction sector. For this purpose, individual interviews were carried out to reveal the current state of BIM use in Turkey, a strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT) analysis was conducted and the best practices in BIM adoption worldwide were investigated. The study intends to contribute to the relevant literature by suggesting a roadmap for the preparation of BIM standards as well as underline the importance of education, technological adaptation, public incentives and sanctions. © 2018 ICE Publishing: All rights reserved.
