Análise dos benefícios e dificuldades da implantação do BIM em empresas de construção civil

Abstract

Considering the growing competitiveness, the increase in the demands of end customers, the concerns with sustainable constructions and the need to reduce the impacts of civil construction, BIM (Building Information Modeling) technology emerges as a promising solution. The adoption of BIM contributes to a better management of costs and deadlines, providing a stricter control over the budget and schedule of the works. The use of detailed digital models also allows for the early identification of potential problems, making it possible to correct failures before they become critical. Based on the above, this work aims to raise and present bibliographies that prove the contribution of BIM tools to obtain more sustainable buildings that meet the current expectations of the construction market. Bearing in mind that the introduction of BIM causes profound changes in the way projects are managed, from the design phase to the execution and maintenance of buildings, two case studies will be presented that highlight the first impacts identified after the implementation of BIM in Brazilian construction companies.
