Building information modeling (BIM) is a process for creating and managing digital representations of physical assets, like buildings. BIM uses 3D models to integrate data from multiple sources to create a digital twin of an asset. This model can be used throughout the asset's lifecycle, from design to construction, operations, and maintenance.
Benefits of BIM
Improved collaboration
BIM allows project teams to share information and collaborate more effectively.
Reduced rework
BIM helps teams identify potential problems before they become issues in the real world.
Better decision making
BIM provides access to relevant information, which helps teams make informed decisions.
Cost savings
BIM helps project managers monitor project costs and avoid delays and miscommunication.
How BIM is used
Construction
BIM can be used to plan, design, and build buildings, highways, and bridges.
Operations and maintenance
BIM can be used to manage buildings throughout their life, including operations and maintenance.
Infrastructure
BIM can be used to manage transportation assets, like highways and bridges, throughout their lifecycle.
