Summary
A groundbreaking approach, Jeddah Heritage Building Information Modelling (JHBIM), offers innovative solutions for preserving Historic Jeddah. This method leverages advanced documentation techniques to address critical challenges such as structural degradation, erosion, and disaster risks in the city's historic district. By integrating Hijazi Architectural Objects Library with BIM technology, researchers demonstrate enhanced understanding of heritage buildings' materials, construction methods, and contextual significance. The study highlights JHBIM's potential to mitigate preservation threats while providing a robust framework for future conservation efforts.
