| Abstract | ||
| The United Nations has set Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for 2030, with SDG 7 aiming for affordable, reliable, and modern energy, SDG 9 for Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure, and SDG 13 for climate action. Buildings play a crucial role in achieving these goals, and the integration of smart materials into building components can enhance energy efficiency and sustainability. Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a powerful tool that can facilitate this integration. This study explores the use of BIM in integrating smart materials into building components, analyzing case studies and examples to illustrate its effectiveness. The findings highlight the pivotal role of BIM in advancing sustainability efforts within the construction industry, particularly concerning SDG 7, SDG 9, and SDG 13. The integration of smart materials in building components, guided by BIM, offers a promising pathway towards affordable, reliable, and sustainable energy solutions, adapting technology to achieve sustainability and address climate change. This research contributes to the discourse on achieving the SDGs and underscores the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration in addressing global energy challenges. | ||
