Research on the Application of BIM Technology in Urban Renewal

Urban renewal has gradually become a core theme and key component of contemporary urban development. However, it currently faces numerous challenges, such as information opacity and low collaboration efficiency. Against this backdrop, Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology, with its powerful capability to integrate building lifecycle information, provides innovative and effective solutions to these issues. This paper employs a literature review method, combined with domestic and international case studies, to explore the positive role of BIM technology in urban renewal. The findings indicate that BIM technology significantly enhances the performance and quality of urban renewal projects through precise 3D modeling and valid multidisciplinary collaboration. Nevertheless, current limitationssuch as software compatibility issues and a shortage of skilled professionalsstill constrain its broader and deeper application in urban renewal. In the future, the deep integration of BIM with cutting-edge technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) is expected to drive urban renewal projects toward intelligent lifecycle management, thereby laying a solid foundation for smart cities.
