3.1.1 Building information modelingAt the base of the digital transition that is affecting the AECO sector there is, first of all, the adoption of BIM, increasingly identified by policymakers and investors as a decisive strategic factor for the full control of all phases of the building process and for the achievement of quality and cost reduction objectives (ECSO, 2019, 2021; European Commission, 2019; JRC, 2019a; WEF, 2016, 2018).
Namely, BIM is a collaborative process in which all parties involved in the project use 3D modeling applications which integrate geometry with additional information about assets’ scheduling, cost, sustainability, operations and maintenance. This way, BIM ensures information is shared accurately and consistently throughout assets’ life cycles. Differently from 2D and 3D CAD modeling, in fact, BIM allows to virtually construct the building, before its actual erection, simulating its per...
