Challenges and Obstacles of Adoption BIM Technology in the Construction Industry in Iraq

Lack of application modern information technology in the construction sector in Iraq leads to complexity in understanding and interpreting diagrams and data, especially in large construction projects. Building Information Modeling (BIM) has a vital role in the construction industry through using the...
