Building Information Modelling and Construction Industry

Building information modeling has simplified the way construction industry works. 
BIM is a way of creating and incorporating the complete project information. 

BIM covers all three phases of construction: pre, during, and after. This modelling has made it easy for the architects and engineers to understand the project. 

What are the benefits of BIM

1. Easy and better design coordination
2. Optimization of design
3. Easy iterations
4. Improved timelines in construction
5. No clashes between disciplines
6. It is an interactive software
7. It is useful for expansions

BIM Models give the client a visual perspective of the look and feel of the facility after construction. This model also helps the contractor to comprehend the building and plan properly. 

BIM also helps facility managers in operation post-construction. 

Why is BIM commonly used in the construction industry? 

BIM modeling provides for good and seamless coordination between disciplines. Once the architects create the BIM Model, consultants and engineers of other disciplines can access the model for their designs. 

BIM also helps identify the redundant components of the project and remove them. It helps identify bottlenecks in the project and process. It provides a lot of clarity to the project. 

It makes project coordination easy and helps keep a check on different phases of the project. 

To conclude, BIM models help to optimize the design by adding value to the project. That is one of the reasons why architects and engineers use BIM model for designing projects.
