Building information modeling (BIM) is used to support sustaining a competitive ability and surviving in competitive construction environment. Structural design is the systematic examination of the balanced firmness and hardness of a design. BIM implementations change the ordinary structural design system via application of data operating schemes. Currently, BIM implementation in structural design has been widely recognized and accepted both by construction professionals and managers. This paper explains how the use of BIM can be a significant platform for structural design. This research aims to consider the present status of BIM and analyses how architectural design, structural design and construction firms are practicing structural design phase of BIM in their design and operations. BIM and respective field in structural design literature is reviewed and analyzed to identify the benefits of using BIM. A data collection is carried out to evaluate the result of reviewed literature.The results of using BIM in structural design are assessed to determine if it increases the efficiency of structural design. BIM supports structural design with rational, collaborative, knowledge based models and operates the knowledge contained in the models to anticipate, encourage, and investigate task performance, display, and charge throughout the whole project life cycle. Therefore, other phases of construction project should also be examined in the future projects to address the status of up-to-date literature about BIM.
