A comprehensive research study on digital Tools in building renovation

Abstract

Digital technologies are having a significant impact, it is challenging to keep up with their rapid evolution. Along with the other challenges we face, the preservation of cultural heritage and historical buildings must be prioritised. It is therefore necessary to explore and understand how we can create an effective link between the restoration of historic buildings and the constantly evolving environment of digital technologies. The article deals with a critical analysis of digital tools used in the renovation of historic buildings with a specific focus on Building Information Modelling (BIM) technologies. The aim of this study is to provide a comprehensive overview of the current state of digital tools in the context of the renovation of historic buildings and to reveal trends in the use of BIM technologies of historic buildings. The research explores in which years in which the idea of BIM in conjunction with renovation came to the fore. It focuses on specific dimensions that have been actively used in conjunction with the restoration of historic buildings and identifies which dimension is used most frequently.
