Análise do uso do BIM nas obras de infraestrutura de transporte no Brasil

Abstract

BIM (Building Information Modeling) has been gaining ground in the construction sector as a methodology that promotes greater efficiency, quality and sustainability in projects. In Brazil, the use of BIM has grown significantly, however in infrastructure projects the dissemination of this methodology is considered incipient. For this reason, some actions by the federal government have sought to change this reality and boost the use of BIM in public works. Although Brazil has other modes of transport, such as railways, airports, waterways, and maritime transport, the road mode is still the most used due to its extensive road network and access flexibility. This sector plays a role of great relevance from both an economic, social and cultural point of view. The adoption of the BIM methodology in road infrastructure enables accurate and detailed modeling of all stages of a highway's life cycle, from planning and design to construction, operation and maintenance. This results in an improvement in the efficiency of the construction process, reducing errors and rework, optimizing the use of resources and, consequently, reducing overall costs. This work aims to analyze the application of BIM in transport infrastructure works in the current Brazilian scenario. Government initiatives to disseminate BIM, success stories and the impacts of this methodology on the performance of projects will be addressed. Based on this analysis, we intend to provide a comprehensive overview of the uses, benefits and perspectives of BIM in the country's transport infrastructure.
