Abstract :
    The bridge infrastructure is critical to both political and economic development and Building Information Modelling (BIM) is now an innovative technology for bridges’ planning, design, construction and operation. However, it is currently difficult to achieve BIM’s practical value in bridge industry due to existing barriers. The focus of this paper is on proposing a new implemented BIM framework for bridge engineering. Particularly, the research project discussed and summarized the barriers which affect effectiveness and collaboration existed in traditional bridge project delivery and proposed a detailed BIM framework based on the traditional workflow to embrace collaboration and interoperation in the whole lifecycle of a bridge. The framework can significantly facilitate integrating BIM tools and practices, and increase the collaboration and productivity throughout the whole process of a bridge.
