BIM Overview
What is BIM? BIM stands for Building Information Modeling/Management and is a digital representation of the physical and functional characteristics of a building. This involves managing a 3D Model's information about the buildings components, structure, and systems.
Objectives
- To be used throughout the building Life cycle
- Data Integration / Collaboration
- Life Cycle Management
- Simulation and Analysis
Approach
What Are the Benefits
- BIM improves Efficiency
- BIM Reduces Errors
- BIM Helps make decisions for the Buildings Lifecycle
Regulatory Compliance
- BIM can assist that designs comply with Local building Codes and Regulations.
- Compliance checks can be made to address potential Issues early in the design phase
- Clash Detection
Data Driven Decisions & Enhanced Visualization
- Based on the detailed information, material specifications, and overall building performance you can make more informed decisions
- 3D Renderings & Walkthroughs
- Visualization Tools
Systems Design
- Defining the structure of the system including the components and how they interact
- Efficiency ensuring that the system operates effectively
- Incorporating BIM and Systems Design
Results
- Cost and Time Savings
- Visual Communication
- On-Time Delivery
