I would be grateful if anyone could help me to suggest some great topics about Green Building, Building Information Modeling and construction waste management. Thanks
integrating green construction with BIM; Green construction assessment for environmental management; Cloud-based BIM for safety and quality management; Green-BIM; Construction waste detection, quantification and reduce using BIM
LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) of the materials. Insert and improve the LCA in the BIM process to create a continuous circle of the construction materials: in this way it is possible to "erase the buildings waste". In fact the wast at the end of a process it is the food of another one just born.
I would suggest the integration of Green Building, Building Information Management, Augmented Reality and Interactive Voice Response to improve construction productivity.
In terms of sustainability perspective, circularity of green building material to eliminate waste or called cradle-to-cradle/circular economy concept, life cycle sustainability assessment to integrate environmental, economic and social aspect of building and the entire social aspect of green building (like the impacts of building to the well-being and heatlth of the occupants) are also great topics.
There are many trending topics that explore this particular concept, namely: circular material flow, automation, and machine learning. I would suggest you focus on manufacturing context as there is less publications explore possibilities of implementing BIM workflow. I published a paper recently that provides a bibliometric review for BIM in manufacturing, you can access the paper via the link: Article A conceptual framework for utilising BIM digital objects (BD...
Please see information about BIM and IDM. How can we share and exchange structured and unambiguous information in the whole lifecycle of the built environment?
