| Summary: | It is an undeniable fact that heritage buildings are a valuable asset for society, it reveals their achievements over the years. Therefore, the need to conserve built heritage has become an increasingly urgent case to experts and the community, they exploit any possible tool to achieve this aim. However, the concept of heritage conservation has completely changed due to the new technologies and inventions which opened up new opportunities to the conservation process of built heritage. This paper focuses on the theoretical parametric approach in generating digital heritage models which will help in the restoration and reconstruction process. A library of parametric heritage models will be designed from architectural books and historic scripts which will then be embedded in a new plug-in for BIM software. This new plug-in will provide multiple solutions for historical buildings which facing certain problems while using manual modelling methods in restoration and reconstruction processes, it will also automate the modelling process by using parametric modelling techniques.
