Use of BIM technologies in the house construction in the Russian Federation

Abstract

The authors of the article analyze the practice of the use of information modeling technologies (building information modeling, BIM technologies) in the Russian house construction. The development of BIM technologies in the house construction of the Russian Federation is analyzed, the main advantages which are [provided by such technologies are named, the main barriers, interfering the BIM development and wide spread thoughout our country are revealed. The research, conducted by the authors, proves, that despite much attention, paid to information modeling by the Ministry of Construction, Housing and Utilities of the Russian Federation, as well as by such organizations as NOSTROY, and also despite the created regulatory framework for their implementation, most organizations, operating in the house construction. are not ready to apply them in practice. Today BIM technologies – destiny of the largest builders. Nevertheless, there are premises for overcoming the existing barriers and wide circulation of BIM in our country in the next 4-5 years. Development of domestic information management systems for the implementation of construction projects on the basis of BIM, preparation of the highly qualified personnel owning information technologies, broad informing the heads and staff of the construction organizations about the existing innovations and their advantages are able to promote overcoming the barriers.
