Abstract

Many studies point out that the modeling of construction information (BIM) integrated with life cycle analysis (LCA) can be launched as an alternative, to identify and quantify the environmental impact generated by the construction industry. However, most studies are based on architectural and structural projects, there are few works in plumbing installations. The objective of this study was to evaluate, through a systematic literature review (SLR), the scientific contribution from 2015 to 2021 in articles on free access to BIM integrated with LCA in plumbing facilities projects. In the RSL, 128 articles were found, and we selected 5 articles for analysis and extraction of information that identified gaps and potential studies.
