Interaction between Lean Construction and BIM : How effectiveness in production can be improved if lean and BIM are combined in the design phase A literature review

The Construction industry has had a relatively low increase in the efficiency rates over the recent years. Two developments of Lean construction and Building Information Modelling(BIM) have been introduced that have each shown improvements in the efficiency rates in construction. These two individua...

description The Construction industry has had a relatively low increase in the efficiency rates over the recent years. Two developments of Lean construction and Building Information Modelling(BIM) have been introduced that have each shown improvements in the efficiency rates in construction. These two individual concepts of Lean and BIM have been applied each independent of the other and because of their similarities and overlapping benefits, it is thought that them being applied together improves the efficiency in a greater way than them being applied individually. This study looks at the synergy that is possible due to the overlapping benefits in applying Lean Construction and BIM. The study is a Literature review aimed at understanding Lean and BIM and their overlaps. The Literature looks at past research studies that have investigated this area. The clear look at these studies shows that when the two concepts are combined, then that collaboration leads to a more integrated process in construction that in turn yields higher efficiency rates. === Byggindustrin har haft en relativt låg ökning i effektivitetstalen de senaste åren.
