| description | Abstract In the architectural, engineering, and construction industry, poor visualization of construction processes and lack of information exchange between different work teams can lead to poor performance. To address these challenges, lean construction methodologies aim to reduce and eliminate waste in construction processes, while BIM technology aims to enhance collaboration between project team members. In general, these technologies can be used together to improve project management and cost reduction. This can be achieved through improving workflow and coordination, enhancing interaction among project members, and using available tools to analyze and improve work. Many aspects of the integration between LC and BIM have been studied, and researchers have come up with some findings and recommendations. Most studies previously demonstrated theoretically that cost reductions using BIM techniques are significant compared to the traditional approach of project management. This is what this study proved practically by applying BIM in the design of a building which is quite successful in construction as it identifies the main causes of construction waste such as reducing waiting time and reducing non-value-added work by using Dynamo to develop these designs. So, the research problem comes, which is how to keep up with development in the field of construction by applying different BIM programs, which results in reducing the time and cost used in design. BIM is a technology that aims to enhance project management and cut costs. A digital representation of the project that contains all the data required for planning, managing, and carrying out the project is created using BIM. |
