Review of BIM Technology Application in Green Buildings Research in China:From Localized Implementation to Whole Life Cycle Development
Taking the China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI)as the data source and em-ploying the CiteSpace bibliometrics tool,this paper analyzes the research status and development trends of Building Information Modeling(BIM)technology applied to green buildings in China based on 2900 journal articles.The research status and development of BIM technology application in the field of green building in China are mainly explored from three aspects:knowledge base,research hotspots and evolution trends.This is explored by analyzing the knowledge graph of the number of re-search literatures,keywords,and keyword clustering.The research results show that the application of BIM technology in green buildings has generally experienced four stages.It has been in a stable devel-opment phrase since 2019;the existing research has mainly focused on the application of BIM tech-nology at a certain project stage of green building.Future research is suggested to explore the integrat-ed application of BIM technology throughout the whole life cycle of green buildings.
