dc.description.abstract |
To raise awareness of green building constructions, Building Information Modelling (BIM) has been
incorporated with unique sustainable strategies. Green BIM technology is a significant innovation of BIM,
emerged through the integration of BIM with sustainable strategies, which enhance the sustainable growth
of buildings while making better opportunities to improve the performance of green buildings. However,
the utilisation of Green BIM technology for existing buildings is less amongst green building practitioners
though Green BIM is widely used for design and construction phases of buildings. In the Sri Lankan context,
since BIM is not implemented yet in building construction, operation and maintenance, the inherent
capabilities of Green BIM technology are hidden and invisible. Thus, an effort is needed to convince and
prove the importance of Green BIM technology for green building practitioners. Towards this effort, the
research is aimed at identifying the potential of implementing Green BIM technology for the existing green
buildings in Sri Lanka where BIM is not applied. Accordingly, a mixed research approach was followed to
accomplish the research aim. Literature review revealed that, the data availability required for Green BIM
techniques and tools is the critical requirement to implement the Green BIM technology for the established
buildings. A desk study was conducted to determine the required data and availability of the data was
analysed through a questionnaire survey and a case study. The findings of questionnaire survey
demonstrated that, there is an acceptable level of data within the current established green buildings. The
results of the case study highlighted the potential of Green BIM implementation for the existing green
buildings. Thus, the study concluded by identifying the ability of incorporating Green BIM technology for
the existing green buildings considering the real-life context which ensure the Green BIM implementation
for the green building sector in Sri Lanka. |
