Price and time are in the construction business very important factors. Recently is very popular to use BIM technology to control them both. From the well-built 3D BIM model we can be obtain information of the location, quantity and geometry of items. Then with adding the fourth dimension to the model, time that is needed to carry out the elements is added. When fifth dimension is added to the model we add pricing of the elements.
The goal of my thesis was building such a model. For reference I showed building a 5D BIM model on a commercial-parking building with three floors of parking and one floor of commercial spaces. Architecture of the building I made in ArchiCAD (3D BIM). Then in program Synchro (4D BIM) I made time schedule. After additional measures in the program CostX and determining the values of the elements I made a financial plan fort the building (5D BIM).
