Digital Twin Prototyping and Simulation Process Proposal in Architecture Through the Integration of BIM and IOT

Abstract

Building Information Modelling (BIM) integrated with real-time Internet of Things (IoT) data streams is emerging as a foundational approach in the development of architectural digital twins. This study proposes a structured and replicable process to achieve an architectural digital twin by integrating BIM and IoT technologies. In the proposed framework, real-time environmental data from a 35 m² indoor room was collected using Arduino-based sensors and processed through Excel and Dynamo to synchronize with a Revit-based BIM model. The results demonstrate successful and continuous real-time synchronization of environmental data with the BIM environment, offering valuable insights for optimizing building performance and comfort conditions. However, limitations such as scalability to larger spaces and response time delays require further research. The study presents a novel pipeline for smart building management by integrating real-time monitoring and digital visualization. Future studies should focus on improving automation workflows, minimizing latency, and extending applicability to complex, multi-room settings. This research contributes to the growing field of digital twins by enabling data-driven, real-time environmental monitoring and enhanced decision-making for architects and facility managers.
