Abstract

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) with Building Information Modeling (BIM) presents transformative potential for enhancing efficiency, accuracy, and decision-making in construction management. However, the convergence of these technologies is met with significant challenges that hinder its widespread adoption. This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the barriers to successful AI-BIM integration within the construction industry, focusing on technical, organizational, and data-related issues. Key challenges include interoperability between AI algorithms and BIM platforms, data privacy and security concerns, lack of standardization, high implementation costs, and the need for specialized skills and knowledge. Through a review of existing literature and expert insights, this paper highlights critical areas for improvement and proposes strategies to overcome these obstacles, ultimately aiming to foster a more seamless integration of AI within BIM for optimized construction management practices.
