Abstract
Purpose
This research has been conducted with a view to creating a framework to integrate risk management based on building information modeling (BIM) information.
Design/methodology/approach
In this research, all the information related to the construction of a residential project including 3D, 4D and 5D BIM models and the execution and control phases information was collected, and the risk list was determined for each activity accordingly.
Findings
The present study has suggested a framework for risk management in order to optimize project changes.
Originality/value
The lack of integration between 3D, 4D and 5D modeling besides execution information is a fundamental problem in many projects. The gap between these two groups of information will lead to improper management and late decisions, eventually imposing unforeseen delays and cost overruns. Risk management by the means of adopting a new approach has been addressed in recent studies using new methods, such as BIM and its associated technologies, some of which were mentioned in the review of theoretical literature in this research.
