Abstract :This study presents a comprehensive literature review on the digital preservation of historic buildings by focusing on the integration of Historic Building Information Modeling (HBIM), artificial intelligence (AI), and virtual reality (VR). Historic structures are under continuous threat from natural disasters, human negligence, wars, and environmental decay. Traditional preservation approaches, though valuable, often fall short in terms of time efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and accessibility. The integration of digital tools—particularly HBIM—offers a multidimensional solution, enabling accurate documentation, simulation of environmental impact, and data-driven decision-making. Through qualitative content analysis of scholarly articles and case studies, the research identifies current practices, benefits, and limitations of digital preservation methods. Findings suggest that the convergence of HBIM, AI, and VR enhances the sustainability and accessibility of cultural heritage conservation projects.
