Factors Influencing the Acceptance of BIM-Based Automated Code Compliance Checking in the AEC Industry in China

Publication: Journal of Management in Engineering
Volume 39, Issue 6

Abstract

With the rapid development of building information modeling (BIM) and Industry Foundation Classes, BIM-based automated code compliance checking (ACCC) has long been desired by the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry. Numerous studies on the technological issues of BIM-based ACCC have been conducted over the past decade, but no studies have focused on the acceptance of BIM-based ACCC by the AEC industry. Understanding how the industry views BIM-based ACCC and the factors that influence the industry’s perception will give a clear direction to research, development, and application of this process in both technological and managerial areas. To fill the gap, this study used a hybrid approach that incorporates Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory and Interpretative Structural Modeling methods to study the factors influencing the acceptance of BIM-based ACCC in the AEC industry in China in terms of five different dimensions (technology, organization, individual, environment, and economy) to reveal the importance of each factor and the interaction among factors. Data in this study were collected from both the design sector and the construction sector. Similarities and differences in attitudes toward BIM-based ACCC in firms in the two sectors are fully addressed and compared, and suggestions to encourage better acceptance and adoption of BIM-based ACCC in each of these sectors are provided.
