The Impact of the Covid-19 Pandemic Crisis on BIM Architectural Practice in France
Résumé
The pandemic crisis of covid-19 has affected the world of industry and construction worldwide. In France, the government has made lockdown and telecommuting mandatory for some areas for months. In recent years, the BIM (building information model) is increasingly adopted in construction, research has shown that in France, agencies that use BIM software and regularly exchange their digital BIM models with their partners are a minority, and that France is not a leader in this field. In this research we will answer the question of how the Covid-19 pandemic crisis has impacted BIM architectural practice in France, based on questionnaires sent to architectural design offices, we will demonstrate the new collaborative tools used and their contributions to the adoption of BIM in agencies.
