2002~2012年是BIM研究快速发展的10年,对此期间的研究成果进行科学梳理可对日后的研究起到重要作用。以SCI数据库以及未被其收录的ITCon(Journal of Information Technology in Construction)、CME(Construction Management and Economics)两本期刊作为数据来源,通过经典文献计量学方法——共被引分析,结合社会网络分析方法构建网络关系,基于Fast-greedy算法划分社团流派,并以人工阅读分析的方式对其间BIM文献进行综合整理。最终得出BIM研究领域的五大社团流派,两大知名团队以及相关可供参考学习的经典文献。
Drawing on resource dependence theory, this paper develops and empirically tests a model for understanding how the implementation of building information modeling(BIM) in construction projects impacts the performance of different project participating organizations through improving their interorganizational collaboration capabilities. Based on two sets of survey data collected from designers and general contractors in BIMbased construction projects in China, the results from partial least squares analysis and bootstrapping mediation test provide clear evidence that BIM-enabled capabilities of information sharing and collaborative decision-making as a whole play a significant role in determining BIMenabled efficiency and effectiveness benefits for both designers and general contractors. The results further reveal that designers and general contractors benefit from project BIM implementation activities significantly nonequivalently, and that this non-equivalence closely relates to the different roles played by designers and general contractors in BIM-enabled interorganizational resource exchange processes. The findings validate the resource dependence theory perspective of BIM as a boundary spanning tool to manage interorganizational resource dependence in construction projects, and contribute todeepened understandings of how and why project participating organizations benefit differently from the implementation of interorganizational information technologies like BIM.
