Abstract

The construction industry believes that Building Information Modelling (BIM) are able to reduce the problem faced by the infrastructure world. Nowadays, the construction industry faced many problems due to dependency on the traditional practice. Therefore, the application of BIM in the construction industry will help the construction projects become more successful. Fourteen (14) papers were referred through extensive literature review and the study aims to discuss the benefits and barriers of using BIM in the construction industry. Furthermore, the strategic planning being implemented the BIM within the next 5 years in Malaysia also been discussed.
