Weather Forecast as an Additional Dimension to BIM

Building information modelling has been proved as an efficient approach for solving global problems in construction projects. Researchers worldwide have pointed that the main direct benefits of BIM are for investors and final building users, while its benefits for construction companies in the construction phase are still matter of discussions. In daily work on construction site BIM is still considered as an unnecessary complication of the already established methodology. Therefore, authors in this paper have provided a literature overview and proposed a methodology for daily use of BIM in planning and monitoring on the construction site. Authors show that the weather forecast as additional dimension (as a statistical data) can be added to nD models as a platform for scenario simulation and risk evaluation. Just as well, they show that this is a valid point of intersection of the two orientations for modelling and simulation: BIM and process simulation. The results of this paper may contribute to a more realistic planning on site and thus positively influence on the projects overall performance.
