ABSTRACT

The main purpose of this study is to provide insight into the trend of AI-BIM integration, which has been studied by scholars around the world. To begin, a systematic review and bibliometric analysis was conducted to investigate English articles published between 2015 and 2022. This paper presents a systematic, scientometric, science mapping analysis through qualitative and quantitative evaluation and co-occurrence methods using VOSviewer, CiteSpace, and Gephi software. Conclusions indicate future research should concentrate on integrating AI and other smart systems with BIM to enhance digitalization and improve outcomes throughout the construction project life cycle. Based on the qualitative and quantitative evaluation of each scope (BIM and AI) and their status quo, this study suggests integrating the following domains with BIM to reduce complexity in the construction industry in the future: robotics, cloud systems, AIOT, digital twins, 4D printing, and block chain.
