Evolving Trends: BIM Application and Development in the Digitalized AECO Sector of Serbia
摘要
This chapter examines actual trends in the digitalisation of the AECO (Architecture, Engineering, Construction and Operations) sector in Serbia. The application and development of BIM (Building Information Modeling) technology is studied as the main indicator of the process of digitalisation. This research investigates a sample consisting of 12 video-recorded company presentations within the series of events called “BIM in Practice, Serbia”, organised by the Serbian Chamber of Commerce and Industry and its Group for BIM Technologies. The sample has been created “by difference” and explores the most advanced examples of BIM usage in the Serbian market. The cases within the observed sample are analysed qualitatively. A summarisation given in the Discussion section indicates significant results in the BIM application on the Serbian market, highlighting the profiles of BIM-intensive companies and their role in the Serbian AECO sector, the range of BIM applications, activities in the national and international BIM knowledge community, etc.
