Description
Summary:Nowadays, the AEC community is preparing for a wholesale adoption of BIM. Therefore, it is now becoming increasingly important for public and private owners to engage with BIM initiatives and provide more comprehensive direction and guidance to their project teams about the use of BIM. In light of these, there is a need for validated questionnaire on the potential BIM uses in the construction industry. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to examine the overall fit statistics of the 'Twenty-Five Identified Potential BIM Uses (25_PoBU) across the Project Lifecycle' using the Rasch Measurement Model. This paper is approached from the perspective of clients? organisations. A 25-item questionnaire was used to collect data from 175 respondents. The findings of this research showed that the 25_PoBU instrument satisfactorily met the fit statistics.
