An investigation into the role of Building Information Modelling (BIM) in minimising design changes (2022)
Conference Proceeding
Fooks, W., Mahamadu, A., Kissi, E., Al-Tarazi, D., Booth, C., & Aigbavboa, C. (in press). An investigation into the role of Building Information Modelling (BIM) in minimising design changes.

Conceptually, Building Information Modelling (BIM) has been in existence for decades. However, BIM has only recently gained widespread application in the construction industry. There are mandates in place for BIM use in many countries. With this incr... Read More about An investigation into the role of Building Information Modelling (BIM) in minimising design changes.
