Abstract

Technological advancements in the construction industry have significantly transformed project planning and control practices, particularly through the integration of Building Information Modeling (BIM). This study aims to compare the efficiency of volume and cost estimation for box culvert structural work using the conventional method and the BIM-based Quantity Take-Off (QTO) approach. The research was conducted as a quantitative case study on the Serang–Panimbang Toll Road Project, Section III, Package 2. Modeling was performed using Autodesk Revit, and data analysis was supported by Microsoft Excel. The study found that the total volume of Class C-2 structural concrete (F’c 20 MPa) amounted to 541.986 m³, while reinforcement using deformed steel bars (BjTS 420B, fy’ 420 MPa) totaled 63,307.27 kg. Volume discrepancies between the two methods ranged from 2%–11% for concrete and 19%–28% for reinforcement. Cost analysis revealed savings of IDR 69,333,150.00 for concrete work (4.38% efficiency) and IDR 361,957,107.00 for reinforcement (22.65% efficiency) when using the BIM-based QTO method. These findings demonstrate that BIM-based QTO provides higher accuracy in representing geometric complexity, reduces estimation errors, and enhances both cost and material efficiency. The study also highlights the applicability of BIM beyond vertical construction, extending its relevance to horizontal infrastructure projects. Therefore, the BIM-based QTO approach is recommended as a reliable and effective tool for cost planning in large-scale infrastructure developments, particularly toll road construction.
