The adoption of 5D building information modelling for quantity surveyors towards better productivity / Husna Nazifa Awang Abdul Kadir

The adoption of Building Information Modelling (BIM) is widely spread in construction industry. BIM application has the potential to revolutionize the quantity surveying practices. BIM is a current software that had been used by the consultant teams to carry out their tasks. The concept known as 5D...

BIM application has the potential to revolutionize the quantity surveying practices. BIM is a current software that had been used by the consultant teams to carry out their tasks. The concept known as 5D BIM, which ultimately concerns the addition of the cost aspect to objects in the BIM model, has the potential for quantity surveyors (QS) to improve their working flows and to improve the quality of the services provided by BIM. The aim of this paper is to promote 5D Building Information.Modelling (BIM) among quantity surveyors in construction industry towards better productivity. In order to achieve the aim, this paper would focus on to investigate the awareness of 5D BIM in improving Quantity Surveyors productivity, the study of the application and the importance of the 5D BIM and to identify the suitable ways to promote 5D BIM towards Quantity Surveying practices. Questionnaires were emailed to the respondents from various companies. The sample was limited to Quantity Surveyors in Kuching, Sarawak. The questionnaires were analysed using SPSS. The findings show that 5D BIM offers QS numerous advantages over traditional methods, particularly through improved visualization and performance. Such potential benefits were only modestly realized as currently practiced because of a variety of obstacles to 5D BIM implementation. These obstacles have been mainly linked to the incomplete BIM design, a lack of electronic measurement standards, legal issues, and a lack of government support in the BIM model. As a result, the application of 5D BIM seems limited, with professional quantity surveyors still relying heavily on traditional methods. Nevertheless, there was good evidence that the implementation of 5D BIM would gain these advantages further in the future. 2020-03 Student Project NonPeerReviewed text en http://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/43115/1/43115.pdf Awang Abdul Kadir, Husna Nazifa (2020) The adoption of 5D building information modelling for quantity surveyors towards better productivity / Husna Nazifa Awang Abdul Kadir.
