3 Ways BIM shapes the future of Building Industry
Why BIM? Building Information Modeling or BIM as it is widely known is not just a modern tool or technology. It is a creative approach to design, construct and operate the structures. According to the National BIM standard, BIM can be defined as follows: “BIM is a digital representation of physical and functional characteristics of a facility. It serves as a shared knowledge resource for information about a facility, forming a reliable basis for making decisions throughout its life-cycle” BIM Engineering serves as an essential tool for three important phases of the project: designing, construction, and operation. How does BIM enhance the design process? During the design phase, BIM helps to create and review multiple design scenarios and convey them to the clients while still maintaining a single model. BIM helps in creating several models without losing the design intent in the middle of the process. BIM helps to create information during one stage ...
