The limitations of BIM in the architectural process (2010)
Presentation / Conference
Coates, S., Arayici, Y., Koskela, L., Kagioglou, M., Usher, C., & O’ Reilly, K. (2010, December). The limitations of BIM in the architectural process. Presented at First International Conference on Sustainable Urbanization (ICSU 2010), Hong Kong, China

Building Informational Modeling has been suggested by some as the panacea to address the interdisciplinary inefficiencies in the construction industry. In many cases the adoption of BIM has numerous potential benefits. But when considering individual... Read More about The limitations of BIM in the architectural process.

Technology adoption in the BIM implementation for lean architectural practice (2010)
Journal Article
Arayici, Y., Coates, S., Koskela, L., Kagioglou, M., Usher, C., & O’Reilly, K. (2010). Technology adoption in the BIM implementation for lean architectural practice. Automation in Construction, 20(2), 189-195. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.autcon.2010.09.016

Justification for Research: the construction companies are facing barriers and challenges in BIM adoption as there is no clear guidance or best practice studies from which they can learn and build up their capacity for BIM use in order to increase pr...

The changing perception in the artefacts used in the design practice through BIM adoption (2010)
Presentation / Conference
Coates, S., Arayici, Y., Koskela, L., & Usher, C. (2010, May). The changing perception in the artefacts used in the design practice through BIM adoption. Presented at CIB 2010, University of Salford

When CAD (Computer Aided Design) was generally adopted in the early 1990’s, the hand drawn process was replaced with the CAD drawing but the nature of the artefacts / deliverables and the exchanges of information between disciplines remained fundamen...
