BIM-based quantity take-off, experience of foreign countries
Abstract
Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a process involving creating and using digital data-rich model to enable stakeholders to colloboratively design, construct and operate a facility. BIM integrates a set of software and tools where 3D models are used to manage quantity take-off automatically. Many research state that BIM is being recognized as an effective tool to generate volume of construction works quickly and accurately. This research focuses on application of BIM for quantity take-off in some BIM-leading countries to obtain experiences in using BIM-based quantity take-off. Recommendations highligh the lessons learned for applying BIM based quantity take-off in Vietnam.
