past and present in the methods of structuring knowledge, making it possible today to transfer this capability to machines even in a sector like AECO, always been information-intensive but resistant to technological transition. In terms of knowledge, the most established paradigm has been Building Information Modelling (BIM), with IFC functioning as the main schema for standardizing the industry's information. Added to this are knowledge graphs that, emerging with semantic web technologies, allow storing knowledge in structures consisting of nodes and edges with semantic meanings. Nevertheless, a barrier to the widespread adoption of BIM is its accessibility. Querying BIM models is often limited for stakeholders without digital skills, who may struggle to access the vast amount of information stored in these complex informative models.
