Building information modelling (BIM) is argued to create a revolution within the constructionindustry through more efficient use of resources and heightened interprofessionalcollaborations. However, BIM has been accessible for decades and has yet not managed tobecome the standard industry method in practice. In contrast to previous working processeswhere different professions used their own specialized software, BIM aims to incorporate allwork and information about the construction process in one database. This research projectfocuses on the resistance towards BIM by showing how the working processes connected toBIM challenge traditional knowledge hierarchies and create new problems for someprofessionals. Workshops and interviews with different professions in an internationalproject-based organization suggest that senior professionals with long working lifeexperience, but limited technical competence of BIM, have problems to fully adapt to thisnew technology. BIM is ill suited to their purposes and imposes limitations to their expertise.While the latest technology can bring opportunities of new knowledge and change, itsusefulness for practice can be questioned if it counteracts established knowledgeinfrastructures. By destabilizing these knowledge infrastructures BIM makes their existencevisible which in turn has consequences for how future buildings are modelled.
