Abstract: Abstract Building Information modelling (BIM) is pervasively discussed and applied in the AEC/FM sector, however, its true adoption rate and quality are never ideal. This paper takes the human-organization-technology iron triangle as critical analysis lens of BIM adoption in construction project organizations. It systematically reviews the three vertexes (human, organization, and technology), the three edges (human-organization relationship, human-technology relationship, and technology-organization relationship), and the core (the human-organization-technology relationship) of the iron. On this review, it gives a comprehensive and fresh research and practical perspective for BIM adoption, states the importance of the balance among the human, organization, and technology, and identifies the key issues for future research in BIM adoption.
