Domain-specific LLMs enhance BIM defect identification and repair

Researchers have developed a novel framework utilizing domain-specific Large Language Models (LLMs) to identify and repair design defects within Building Information Modeling (BIM) data. This approach integrates a BIM-to-Text method with advanced prompting techniques, including rule injection, few-shot prompting, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), to generate repair suggestions. The system demonstrated an 85% defect identification accuracy, surpassing traditional rule-checking methods, and achieved a 94% rate of reasonable repair suggestions. Furthermore, a hallucination control strategy was implemented, significantly improving accuracy and reducing false positives. AI

IMPACT This research could streamline architectural and construction workflows by automating the detection and correction of design flaws.
