Integration of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Value Engineering in Construction Projects: A Bibliometric Analysis

Due to a variety of issues and inefficiencies during the construction process, construction projects require a substantial amount of money and resources. Controlling the cost is a critical step in ensuring the success of project and increasing its value. Value Engineering (VE) has been gaining incre...
