        abstract = {The construction industry is undergoing a significant digital transformation driven by the adoption of advanced technologies such as Building Information Modelling (BIM) and Digital Twin systems. A digital twin represents a virtual replica of a physical asset, enabling real-time monitoring, simulation, and performance analysis throughout the lifecycle of a building. This paper presents the development of a digital twin of a building using BIM to enhance construction efficiency, coordination, and decision-making. The proposed approach integrates 3D modeling, 4D scheduling, and 5D cost estimation within a unified BIM environment. The digital twin enables improved visualization, clash detection, construction planning, and lifecycle management. The study highlights the methodology adopted for digital twin creation, system components, expected outcomes, advantages, and limitations. The results demonstrate that BIM-based digital twins significantly improve construction management and support sustainable and data-driven decision-making across the building lifecycle.},
