    abstract = {Existing buildings and facilities contain relatively static data. The data supports the facility
operations, occupancy management and project management on college campuses. The traditional data storage
method is 2D system which is paper documents, CAD drawings or PDF files. The storage method system is
fragmented and inefficient when it comes to retrieving and updating the parameters of a piece of the facility or
equipment. BIM is an effective carrier to host, exchange and upgrade the information. Traditional
documentation method sometimes fails to serve in managing the development, rehabilitation and renovation
of existing buildings. The lack of appropriate documents, change orders. To address the challenges of life-cycle
management of buildings because of current documentation methods does not lend themselves toward
managing the continuous changes to buildings. The researcher using one of BIM tools is Autodesk Revit for
creating the recent document of case study.}
