Abstract
The construction industry is one of the broad, decentralized and highly indigenous industries of any country and in many countries, it is considered an indicator for growth and development or economic stagnation. This industry in Iran is currently experiencing a lot of inefficiency, one of the main reasons for which is the lack of growth in the technical field. The use of traditional methods is known as one of the main factors inhibiting productivity in the construction industry in Iran, because most of the traditional methods and their nature lead to time delays and waste of resources. Therefore, it is necessary to use new technologies in this important and vital industry. The use of Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology in construction projects is very important, including the benefits of using BIM, improving coordination and communication, increasing productivity, reducing errors, improving construction quality, etc. Therefore, in this research, the benefits of using this useful technology in the life cycle of a construction project have been investigated.
