Abstract

Building information modelling is a illustration of the physical and functional characteristics of a technology which connects project information databases in every fields. Use of building information modelling technology represents one of the most progressive approach in construction project management. Construction project management is a difficult process depends on many factors. Human resources are one of them. Project results depends on productivity of human resources. There are some questions about productivity of employees and managers. Productivity of employees depends on many processes and factors. Progressive technology can be one of them. BIM technology presents probably affective tool for productivity. This research discussed issue of use of BIM technology and analyses BIM effect on productivity in construction project management. Main aim of research was set like analyze of use BIM technology in construction industry and effect of this on productivity.
