Use of BIM Technologies In Managing the Refurbishment of Residential and Commercial Properties

This article examines the potential of building information modeling (BIM) technologies in managing the reconstruction of residential and commercial properties, with a focus on cultural heritage preservation. The theoretical foundation includes an analysis of BIM technologies, generative design, and digital twins, as well as their integration for precise digital modeling, optimization of design solutions, and dynamic monitoring of operational parameters. A case study of the reconstruction of the former Santa Barbara cinema in Paternò demonstrates that the comprehensive application of these technologies significantly enhances design accuracy, improves energy efficiency, optimizes operational performance, and preserves the historical integrity of the structure. The findings confirm the hypothesis that integrating BIM with modern digital tools is an effective approach for managing reconstruction projects, providing substantial practical value for professionals in architecture, construction, and real estate management. The article also presents recommendations for further research aimed at improving generative design algorithms and enhancing the reliability of digital twins. The topic of BIM technology application in reconstruction management will be of interest to leading specialists in architectural and engineering design, strategic construction project management, and urban studies, as it offers an innovative methodological framework for integrating digital tools to optimize reconstruction processes, minimize technological risks, and ensure the sustainability of urban infrastructure.
