The role of BIM (Building Information Modeling) for representation and managing of built and historic artifacts

It’s established that in the design and construc - tion of new buildings, BIM is a fundamental refe - rence especially when the standardization is the typical character of the project. As Architecture, with the management of the entire building pro - cess, requires standardization for greater eco - nomy, thanks to BIM tools the building process seems to have actually moved to a 2.0 phase; on the contrary, when BIM is applied to historical bu - ildings it still reveals not so adequate.  In this framework, this paper will not discuss the differences between CAD and BIM or the un- doubted potential of BIM software from a tech- nical or operational standpoint; we would focus instead on the implication of BIM referring to the Representation disciplines and to the issues con- nected with its application to the existing built stock and especially to historic buildings.
