Building Information Modeling (BIM) In High Rise Building

Abstract: This research paper explores the application of Building Information Modeling (BIM) in the context of high- rise building construction. High-rise structures present unique challenges due to their scale and complexity, which traditional construction methods often struggle to manage effectively. BIM offers a digital, collaborative approach that enhances visualization, coordination, cost estimation, and facility management throughout a building's lifecycle. Through a qualitative methodology involving literature review and case studies, this study identifies key benefits and challenges of BIM implementation in high-rise projects. The findings reveal improved design coordination, accurate cost control, and streamlined construction sequencing as major advantages. However, barriers such as high initial investment and the need for skilled personnel remain. The discussion underscores the importance of strategic planning and standardized practices to fully harness BIM's potential. Overall, the study confirms that BIM significantly enhances project outcomes in high-rise construction and suggests pathways for more widespread and effective adoption.
