THE construction industry is starting to see the impact of Industry 4.0 in terms of advances in technology in areas such as building information modelling (BIM), drone technology, industrialised building system (IBS) and green building construction.
BIM is a modelling technology associated with a set of processes to produce, communicate, analyse and use digital information models throughout the life cycle of a construction project. It is an intelligent 3D model-based process that gives architecture, engineering and construction professionals an insight and tools to more efficiently plan, design, construct and manage buildings and infrastructure.
