Robinson, M. J. The delusion of innovations? An investigation into micro-level factors to an effective macro-level diffusion of Building Information Modelling in the UK. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. Retrieved from http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/Output/2848547

Building Information Modelling (BIM) is being hailed as the digital enabler to reform of the traditionally stagnant construction industry, with the UK leading much of the global drive to strategize the macro-level adoption of BIM. However, in an inhe... Read More about The delusion of innovations? An investigation into micro-level factors to an effective macro-level diffusion of Building Information Modelling in the UK.

A critical appraisal of BIM implementation in the context of environmental performance enhancement (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Robinson, M., Currie, J., Brown, A., & Garnier, C. (2017, April). A critical appraisal of BIM implementation in the context of environmental performance enhancement. Paper presented at CIBSE Technical Symposium, Loughborough, UK

A ubiquitous effort to phase the adoption of a fully integrated Building Information Modelling (BIM) approach into the construction industry is gaining pace due to the many reported benefits claimed of working in a holistically digital environment. T... Read More about A critical appraisal of BIM implementation in the context of environmental performance enhancement.

A critical appraisal of BIM implementation in the context of environment performance enhancement in the construction industry. (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Robinson, M. (2017, April). A critical appraisal of BIM implementation in the context of environment performance enhancement in the construction industry. Poster presented at CIBSE Technical Symposium, Loughborough, UK

A mismatch has been observed between predicted energy performance and actual measured consumption, often termed the ‘performance gap’. This is a major concern given the significant contribution of the building sector to global energy use and greenhou...
