Abstract

In order to analyze the impacts of BIM on information exchange between construction project stakeholders, this paper studied from three essential information exchange modes. At last, the simplified version of Shannon-Weaver model II was chosen as the analysis framework. The whole process of information exchange was gradually analyzed with the help of literature, conclusions were given as follows: because of the adoption of BIM, the supplier and demander of information may change; richer, more clear and accurate information were created; the efficiency of information transmission was improved and the possibility of wrong interpretation of information was reduced. Apart from this, these impacts may produce a series of effects, so project managers should consider about these impacts when they make decisions. Also, with the special analysis of the impacts, this paper can provide some advices for decision makers when they decide if they should adopt BIM even lacking of empirical support
