Integrating Building Information Management (BIM) in Civil Infrastructure Coordination: Application at LUSAIL Plaza by Abotaleb, Mohab Mohamed

“…This case study triggers the need for identifying a new process in integrating BIM models in the coordination challenges through all the phases of mega-projects, as the complexity associated with mega projects appears to increase from one phase to another. From the lesson learned in this case study readers will know how integrating BIM in the coordination process in complex scale projects can decrease the clashes and improve progress of work during construction phase.…”
