Megaprojects are large-scale and complex investments, including a long construction period, as a result need efficient management skills during their life cycle. The success rate of the megaprojects is lower compared to the traditional projects due to their complex characteristics. By adopting new technologies, such as Building Information Modeling (BIM), more efficient project management can be performed for mega construction projects. Hence, the success of projects could be increased in terms of time, cost and quality. In this study, the challenges to BIM implementation in mega construction projects are investigated. To achieve this aim, the challenges for BIM adoption extracted through a literature review. Then, a questionnaire survey was designed to collect the data from practitioners. Furthermore, the challenges were analyzed using descriptive statistics.
