Abstract
Abstract Modular construction is becoming more popular because of its efficiency, cost-saving, and environmental benefits, but its successful implementation necessitates detailed planning, scheduling, and coordination. BIM and 4D simulation techniques have emerged as invaluable tools for visualizing and analyzing the construction process in order to meet these requirements. However, integrating distinctive data sources and developing comprehensive 4D BIM simulations tailored to modular construction projects present significant challenges. Case studies are used in this paper to define precise data needs and to design a robust data integration framework for improving 4D BIM simulations in modular construction. The validation of the framework in a real-world project demonstrates its efficacy in integrating data, promoting cooperation, detecting risks, and supporting informed decision-making, ultimately enhancing modular building results through more realistic simulations. By solving data integration difficulties, this research provides useful insights for industry practitioners and researchers, enabling informed decision-making and optimization of modular building projects.
