With the development of information technology, digital construction technology is leading the rapid development of the construction industry. As a key digital technology, Building Information Modeling (BIM) is based on the relevant data of engineering projects. It simulates engineering entity information by establishing 3D models and achieves data analysis and collaboration among project participants and centralized management of project life cycle information. BIM can improve the fine management level of projects, their efficiency and benefit, and the degree of informatization of the industry. The application of BIM technology in China’s construction field has been widely applied with great value. However, BIM also has caused some problems in the practice process, such as large initial investment, high requirements for hardware equipment, and data accuracy. Generally, BIM technology is one of the developing directions of the construction industry. In the application, its advantages should be exerted and corresponding measures for the problems in the actual construction should be taken to make BIM technology better adapt to and promote the development of the construction industry.
