A Review of Global Efforts in BIM Adoption for Road Infrastructure

Abstract

This review article examines global initiatives in the adoption of building information modeling (BIM) for road infrastructure. It begins with an overview of the distinctions between BIM applications for buildings and infrastructure projects. This study evaluates noteworthy BIM publications (NBPs) from various countries and organizations to understand BIM’s transformative impact on roadway infrastructure projects. It analyzes the evolution of these publications, compares academic output with NBP, identifies the stages of BIM maturity, and evaluates adherence to ISO 19650 standards. Through this analysis, the article presents current global and regional scenarios, providing a comprehensive overview of the current state and future prospects of BIM implementation in the road infrastructure sector.
