3D BIM (Building Information Modeling) for Construction
Technologies are changing the way we think, create and design. For effortless and error-free solutions, technologies provide the tested ways to simplify the conventional routines. With the inception of 3D BIM modeling technology, the construction world welcomes digitization to their dust-laden environment. 3D BIM is such an application that takes the construction planning into 3D world for better communication to the infrastructure.
BIM: Building Information Modeling is a process where architectures and engineers can plan, design, construct and manage building infrastructure more efficiently. 3D BIM modeling helps any construction analyze the designing plan and change the fault parts, if any. Coordination and construction problems are being checked through the 3D BIM modeling.
The industry defines BIM in different way and each definition solves a knot of understanding to present the application better to people. Let’s take a look what others define the application.
Autodesk: A much known name for application like Revit and AutoCAD, Autodesk shares invaluable information about BIM. For them, BIM is an intelligent model-based process with which designing and engineering projects gets accuracy and accessibility for building and construction. The Data plays an important role for any construction, and in BIM, ‘I’ stands for information – the much needed data to analyze every stage of a project, starting from conception to construction.
Graphisoft: The maker of ArchiCAD (a BIM software platform), GRAPHISOFT has a different view from that of Autodesk. According to them, BIM is nothing but a use of 3D virtual model of building and a process of managing building data. Since the model is a fundamental factor that defines how the project will be, BIM gives the details about the model and completes the foundation step effortlessly. In this application, a digital version of a construction is made, including parts and pieces of the project.
Bentley Systems: The developer of AECOsim Building Designer and ProjectWise, Bentley Systems comes up with a new prospect of BIM in construction. They think BIM enhances the control over project by using the effortless methodologies. Information earned from this application is huge that also has an implication on a supply chain of a project with a greater accuracy.
There are different views of BIM which help you analyze an array of benefits the application gives you. In Construction, BIM has been a proven process that improves a better outcome and solves construction complication smoothly.
The application of BIM for Construction:
- Architecture and building design
- Civil and structural engineering
- Energy and utilities
- Highway and road engineering
- Landscape and land surveying
- Offshore and marine architecture
- Rail and metro transportation engineering
- Tunneling and subway architecture
- Urban master-planning and smart city design
BIM has an astounding effect on making a construction accurate and free from any faults. A 3D model has been prepared for building, and further decisions have been taken accordingly.
