(All?) Journal Articles Mentioning BIM

A list of Journal Articles about BIM by year.
Català - Castellano - Deutsch
As part of my thesis I've been analyzing the evolution of BIM in scholarly research. I have created the following table that shows the number of results obtained in different Journals (all that I could come up with) using the search terms "BIM" and "Building Information Modelling".

The search was done using Science Direct search as well as Google Scholar. I also checked the wikispaces page on BIM Journals as a reference.

There might be some incorrections due to the spelling of Modelling / Modeling in British or American English. I have done most of the search using Modelling, although when 0 results came with this term, I tried Modeling to double check and sometimes it gave results. I have placed links to the Search page of the Journals when possible. when the journals had no Search engine on the web site, I posted the link directly to the Google Scholar page for that Journal.

This is part of my Master Thesis, so I'd appreciate if anyone who wants to use this can reference to it as it is shown below, or at least link to this page so people can find the updated Reference.

Broquetas, M (2011) 'Using BIM as a Project Management Tool. How can BIM improve the delivery of Complex Construction Projects?', Master thesis, Stuttgart University of Applied Sciences.

This is still a working title, if I finnally change it, I'll let you know.

Hope this helps. And of course, I'd appreciate if anyone knows if i have forgotten any relevant journal. Thanks!

UPDATE: on the next post you can find a chart summarizing the table above to see the evolution in numbers.

SketcUp Plugins: TGI3D Free Form Organic Modelling Plugin

A new Plugin for SketchUp has been released. It allows great new free-form organic modelling features like never seen before in SketchUp
Català - Castellano - Deutsch
A new plugin has been recently released. It is called TGI3D Amorph, and it allows you to do what you will see on the videos below.





On the TGI3D website you can find both the full version of the Plugin ($149) as well as a a free trianing version that will allow you to test the plugin with a limited number of vertex. Looks really promising.

Portuguese partnership

If you are a portuguese speaker, you want to check this blogCatalà - Castellano - Deutsch
New found blogging friends at Barsaglini e Amigos. For all Portuguese speakers these is a great website that just in half of 2010 has posted over 150 potst related to Architecture, CAD, SketchUp, etc. Looks prmomising and probably it might become a reference blog for the portuguese speaking community soon.

Follow them on their blog or using twitter at @barsaglini. You can also find the link to this great blog on my blog roll.
