The Application of BIM Technology in Cost Control of Prefabricated Buildings

Abstract

This paper studies the application of Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology in cost control of prefabricated buildings. The BIM technology control method is mainly studied for the whole life cycle of prefabricated buildings. Firstly, the assembly building, BIM technology, the whole life cycle cost of assembly building and its control problems are summarized, and the composition of the whole life cycle cost of assembly building is put forward. According to the division of the whole life cycle of buildings, this paper analyzes the cost control problems in six stages of prefabricated buildings: (1) the Pre-planning Preparation stage, (2) the Design stage, (3) the PC Production stage, (4) the Transport stage, (5) the Construction and installation stage, and (6) the Operation and recovery stage. Combined with the engineering practice, the researcher put forward the cost control method of the whole life cycle of prefabricated buildings based on BIM technology, and verified the effectiveness of cost management by combining with the case of prefabricated buildings. The research results provide a useful reference for the whole life cycle cost control of prefabricated buildings in enterprises.
