Journal Article
Panakaduwa, C., Coates, P., & Munir, M. (2024). Evaluation of Government Actions Discouraging Housing Energy Retrofit in the UK: A Critical Review. https://doi.org/10.1109/eem60825.2024.10608933

Housing energy retrofit has become a key priority in achieving the climate goals in the UK, mainly reaching net zero by 2050. However, the poor demand for housing retrofit from the homeowners has been identified as a key problem in driving retrofit a...

Identifying sustainable retrofit challenges of historical Buildings: A systematic review (2024)
Journal Article
Panakaduwa, C., Coates, P., & Munir, M. (2024). Identifying sustainable retrofit challenges of historical Buildings: A systematic review. Energy and Buildings, 313, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enbuild.2024.114226

The UK is reported to have approximately 400,000 historical buildings as listed buildings and buildings in conservation sites. Due to the historical value of these buildings, the level of changes possible to these buildings is limited. However, the g...

BIM business value for asset owners : key issues and challenges (2020)
Journal Article
Munir, M., Kiviniemi, A., Jones, S., & Finnegan, S. (2021). BIM business value for asset owners : key issues and challenges. International Journal of Building Pathology and Adaptation, 39(1), 135-151. https://doi.org/10.1108/IJBPA-10-2019-0090

There is a need to develop the understanding of asset owners concerning the constraints of building information modelling (BIM) implementation, and its subsequent value realisation activities in asset management (AM) cannot be overstated. This is bec... Read More about BIM business value for asset owners : key issues and challenges.

BIM-based operational information requirements for asset owners (2020)
Journal Article
Munir, M., Kiviniemi, A., Jones, S., & Finnegan, S. (2020). BIM-based operational information requirements for asset owners. Architectural Engineering and Design Management, 16(2), 100-114. https://doi.org/10.1080/17452007.2019.1706439

It is widely recognised in the Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry that asset owners do not really understand their information needs for effective BIM-based Asset Management (AM). Hence, they may be unable to develop their oper... Read More about BIM-based operational information requirements for asset owners.

BIM business value for asset owners through effective asset information management (2019)

BIM business value generation theory : a grounded theory approach (2019)
Journal Article
Munir, M., Kiviniemi, A., Jones, S., & Finnegan, S. (2019). BIM business value generation theory : a grounded theory approach. Journal of Information Technology in Construction, 24, 406-423

Theoretical developments in the Architectural Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry have been deficient, especially for the operations and use phase. The need for asset owners to understand the Building Information Modelling (BIM) process and t... Read More about BIM business value generation theory : a grounded theory approach.

Business value of integrated BIM-based asset management (2019)
Journal Article
Munir, M., Kiviniemi, A., & Jones, S. (2019). Business value of integrated BIM-based asset management. Engineering, Construction and Architectural Management, 26(6), 1171-1191. https://doi.org/10.1108/ecam-03-2018-0105

Currently, building information modelling (BIM) is largely seen as a 3D model, not as an information model or information management tool. This wrong perception of BIM and low interest in 3D asset management (AM) is one of the major reasons for the s... Read More about Business value of integrated BIM-based asset management.
