The individual perceptions of BIM practice in Algeria between practitioners and academics: implementation barriers and strategic solutions.

Tehami, Mohamed; Seddiki, Mohammed

Abstract

Numerous studies have highlighted the importance of BIM as a concept and technology in the construction industry. Several developed and developing countries have already initiated the implementation of BIM, which has been possible thanks to significant support by their governments. However, few efforts have been conducted to compare the opinions of academics and practitioners regarding the BIM perceptions. This research was conducted to fill this gap and to explore the different understanding of the BIM implementation between academic people and practitioners in terms of BIM critical barriers, and strategic solutions in Algeria. This paper extends previous research on the BIM implementation in Algeria (Tehami & Seddiki, 2023) by focusing on the individual perceptions of the BIM practice between practitioners and academics.
