The development of sports buildings into intelligent buildings needs to rely on BIM technology in order to be realized. BIM technology produces a new approach to design that departs from the traditional morphological design of sports buildings and changes the way data analysis relies on sensory design to establish a set of rational criteria for the overall analysis of sports buildings.
