| Summary: | Despite the rich and diverse heritage buildings in Malaysia, they suffer from
many problems and threats. Many heritage buildings are deteriorating, and this
threatens the country’s cultural values. The deterioration of built heritage is a
result of the poor inheritance of its related documentation and need to be
addressed. Thus, this study brought forward the concept of preservation using
Building Information Modelling (BIM). Exploring the potential of BIM as a
preservation tool in reviving local cultural values might help to balance the
problem of poor inheritance or inconsistency in managing historic and
documentation maintenance. The aim of this paper is to study the relationship
between levels of development (LOD) and usage of BIM in heritage building
preservation. This study employs exploratory research using content analysis.
The result of the study found that the availability of as-built details (LOD 500) of
the building would be the crucial dataset needed for BIM to function in heritage
building as H-BIM. This paper suggests on techniques available for constructing
Level of Development (LOD) needed for H-BIM. |
