Building Information Modeling (BIM) has been adopted worldwide in recent years as a novel way of working that enables efficiency in the construction industry. Lately, numerous countries made it compulsory to utilize BIM in public construction projects. Similarly, BIM became a contractual requirement in some public infrastructure and Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) projects in Turkey. However, in order to benefit from the advantages of BIM, some legal concerns such as intellectual property, liability, legal validity should be taken into account while using BIM. Several widely used standards of contracts in the world, such as New Engineering Contract (NEC) and Joint Contract Tribunal (JCT), have published additional documents by addressing some perceived barriers to BIM adoption, to facilitate making these construction contracts compatible with BIM. However, there are no commonly accepted standard contracts in Turkey that address BIM usage, apart from the technical specifications for BIM utilized on several projects. Therefore, in this paper an investigation of legal aspects of BIM as identified in the literature and considered in standard contracts is performed, to emphasize the legal concerns that should be addressed in provisions of contracts.

Investigation of legal issues and contractual considerations associated with BIM use in construction projects
Kaya, Fatih; Akçamete Güngör, Aslı; Birgönül, Mustafa Talat; Department of Civil Engineering (2021-9)
Building Information Modelling (BIM) has expanded its use worldwide in recent years, as it brings efficiency and better quality to the construction industry. This expansion also motivates researchers to investigate potential problems that may occur while adopting and using BIM. Since it has modified the nature of the relationships between the parties to differ from traditional project delivery, legal issues such as Model Ownership and Intellectual Property, Contractual Relationship of Parties, Design Liabi...
An Investigation of building information modeling maturity in turkish small-medium size enterprises architectural and engineering firms
Sarı, Ramazan; Pekeriçli, Mehmet Koray; Tanyer, Ali Murat; Department of Building Science in Architecture (2017)
Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry experiences Building Information Modeling (BIM) transition process in all over the world. As the firms have advanced on BIM implementation, a necessity to benchmark the BIM performance has emerged. A couple of assessment tools were released for the sector to be used by organizations, individuals and governments to benchmark the BIM implementation maturity. The architecture and engineering firms in Turkey are also in the midst of BIM transition. Howev...
BIM EXECUTION PROCESS OF CONSTRUCTION COMPANIES FOR BUILDING PROJECTS
GERÇEK, Bilge; Tokdemir, Onur Behzat; İLAL, MUSTAFA EMRE; GÜNAYDIN, HÜSNÜ MURAT (2017-07-29)
Building Information Modeling (BIM) has been an emerging concept in architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry with a vast amount of promising benefits to construction projects. Implementation of BIM, however, requires comprehensive research and strategic planning. Industry-wide and organizational implementation guidelines and standards have been published around the world either to encourage organizations to adopt BIM or to present the minimum requirements to be followed where BIM implementa...
A Categorization of BIM-Related Legal Issues
Kaya, Fatih; Akçamete Güngör, Aslı; Birgönül, Mustafa Talat (2020-11-14)
As Building Information Modeling (BIM) brings effectiveness and better quality into the sector, it has broadened its usage worldwide throughout recent years. This expansion also motivates researchers to investigate potential problems that may occur while adapting and using BIM. Since it has modified the nature of the relationships between the parties differently than the traditional project delivery, legal issues such as Model Ownership and Intellectual Property, Contractual Relationship of Parties, De...
Development of an IT-based tool for portfolio assessment and management for construction companies
Bilgin, Gözde; Dikmen Toker, İrem; Özorhon Orakçal, Beliz; Department of Civil Engineering (2019)
Development in the construction industry has leaded most of the construction companies to undertake more complex projects than before, which are generally executed concurrently. Therefore, project management routines of the companies may not support effective management of multi-projects. Project portfolio management approach has been suggested to meet requirements for coordinating multi-projects to meet strategic objectives under limited resources. Since project portfolio management requires a comprehensiv...
