Performance-based identity in a BIM environment : An architect’s perceptions and experiences by Syafizal, Shahruddin, Mohd, Zairul, Ahmad Tarmizi, Haron, Meor Mohammad, Fared

“…Interpreting the meaning structure of architects' actions, behaviours and performances enacted in a building information modelling (BIM) environment is implausible by returning to the classic and ideal imagery of an architect as a natural leader. Yet, little has been empirically explored on how architects perceive their identity and most critically, how they act, behave and perform their way into it in such an environment. …”
