of Bridge Project Delivery Using BIM  \nOffice of Infrastructure FHWA-HIF-21-031  \nMarch 2021  \nFOREWORD  \nThe Federal Highway Administration conducted research to implement the use of Building Information Modeling for the design and fabrication of highway bridges. The research used the Industry Foundation Class (IFC) Bridge Design to Construction Information Exchange (U.S.) exchange specification and conducted a case study of the digital delivery of a bridge project in Utah. The objective was to develop information about using the IFC standard for the digital delivery of bridge projects in the U.S. Digital delivery refers to the use of digital processes and media to design, procure, construct, fabricate, operate, and maintain infrastructure assets. This research may interest State transportation agencies because of the growing interest and investment in the digital delivery of bridges in the United States.  \nJoseph L.

BIM is one tool involved in the emerging trend to deliver infrastructure projects using digital media, a practice known as digital delivery. With digital delivery, the digital data created at one point in the asset lifecycle is used at a later point without the need to re-create it.
