This article has as its theme the discussions on Building Information Modeling (BIM) within the scope of the research presented at the SIGraDi congresses. The main objective of this article is to present a mapping of the BIM approach by the SIGraDi community, showing how this technology has been appropriate, especially in Latin America. It was possible to understand, through the analysis of the occurrence of the BIM theme in article titles in the last 15 years, that there are four predominant approaches, namely: (1) BIM implementation processes, (2) impacts of BIM tools and their advent, (3) BIM teaching methodologies and (4) BIM uses. It is expected to contribute to the mapping of the main aspects and perspectives of how BIM has been incorporated in the research developed by the members of SIGraDi.
