In Malaysia on September 14 and 15, Malaysia BIM Day 2026 convened professionals and representatives from the construction industry to discuss practical BIM applications and their contribution to the digital transformation of the sector.
Malaysia BIM Day 2026, was held as part of Putrajaya Digital Built, in Putrajaya, the administrative capital of Malaysia. Our INBLANC experts at CYPE took part in a roundtable discussion at the event and presented INBLANC project as one of the practical examples of applying BIM to the environmental assessment of buildings.
CYPE's presentation "BIM Beyond Design – Turning BIM Data into Decisions Across the Built Asset Lifecycle", explored five practical BIM applications including: integration between design and fabrication, automated regulatory compliance, environmental assessment, fire investigation, and building operation and management.
The main objective was to demonstrate how BIM can support technical decision-making throughout the building lifecycle, extending well beyond its traditional use during the design stage.
The INBLANC project was presented in the section "BIM for Lifecycle Environmental Assessment", which focused on the use of BIM to assess the environmental impact of buildings. During this part of the presentation, CYPE shared practical examples of how this approach can support the assessment of environmental indicators, including:
COâ‚‚ emissions
Embodied energy in construction materials and elements
Waste generation
The methodology shared closely aligns with the work we are currently developing and discussing at INBLANC, particularly regarding the use of BIM information for material quantity take-offs, the association of construction elements with environmental data, and assessment of their environmental impacts.
The presentation gave international visibility to the approach we are exploring at INBLANC and demonstrated some of its potential practical applications in the construction industry.
