  • Abstract:
    Building Information Model is developed by integrating all information from project team members at each stage into a single repository that can easily be deposited, retrieved, edited and shared. Collaboration between the designers and builders is necessary to confirm the correctness of the design intent and concept before commencing the construction process. This study examined the specific roles of builders by examining the information required from builders in Building Information Modelling (BIM) processes. A total of 132 questionnaires filled by the respondents were used for analysis using the Relative Importance Index. The findings show that the role of builders in BIM is the coordination of 3-dimensional (3D) models and the simulation of the construction programme and construction methodology. The study concludes that the specific roles of builders in BIM processes are to detect information clashes and simulate the construction process in a sequential order. © Penerbit Universiti Sains Malaysia, 2018.
