Building information modelling implementation in prefabricated building research field and barriers analysis

Building information modelling (BIM) implementation in prefabricated building tends to be an emerging research domain in the recent decades to many benefits to project shareholders, such as enhancement in design, data exchange and sharing, and reducing construction waste and productivity. This research explores state-of-the-art of BIM adoption in the prefabricated building issues through the bibliometric review method. The objective of this paper is to identify the barriers to BIM implementation in prefabricated building projects. This research contributes to the body of knowledge by integrating BIM with prefabricated building projects for further research needs.
