Abstract: Abstract Currently, Building Information Modeling (BIM) adoption has been led by several developed countries, and technical support needed for adopting BIM in the world. IFC has been called as an open BIM standard for exchanging and sharing BIM data among BIM software products. Yet, the current IFC standard might not be the best interoperability solution under all circumstances. In China, A great industry innovation is spurred by BIM, the research for China BIM Standard (CBIMS) is a very important landmark. Early in 2009, Tsinghua University carried out a theoretical and empirical research for CBIMS and completed BIM framework. This paper explains the basic content of IFC-based open BIM, discusses how open BIM, with the aid of IFC, and analyzes the development trend of open BIM in construction industry and proposes to the government policies for open BIM in China. It is still necessary to develop an open BIM solution that may support prediction of life cycle performance. Such a solution needs to be communicative to any open BIM software and thus has to be built upon open standards.
