Advances in Building Information Management

This book provides a comprehensive and integrated perspective on Building Information Management by exploring the digital technologies that are reshaping the Architecture, Engineering, Construction, and Operation (AECO) sector. It bridges the gap between these technologies and lifecycle information management by presenting both their theoretical foundations and their practical integration within interoperable digital ecosystems. Rather than examining these technologies in isolation, this book demonstrates how Building Information Modelling (BIM), Digital Twins, Artificial Intelligence, the Internet of Things (IoT), Semantic Web technologies, Digital Building Logbooks (DBLs), and blockchain can work together to support informed decision-making, predictive maintenance, asset management, and environmental sustainability. Drawing upon recent research, international standards and practical implementation scenarios, this book provides readers with both a conceptual framework and practical guidance for understanding current developments and future directions of digital construction.
