I am interested in BIM processes, especially for application in the public sector. How they have already been applied, case studies, types of interchangeability and design processes. I am studying how to implement the BIM process, in the analysis of infrastructure and civil construction projects, in order to increase the accuracy of the analysis and reduce the response time to the customer.
