There are four stages to implement BIM effectively:ġ. This is why software is needed to record everything digitally. We all know that starting the job properly is half of the work, and that it is essential to think before we act. This is the only way that effective communication and exchange of data can be achieved. Is the correct information being exchanged in the calculation and work preparation stage?ĭoes the personnel responsible for installation have the correct drawings available and do they correspond to those of the contactor?ĭoes the construction material correspond to that set out by the planning team?Īwareness building must not only take place within your organisation it must be shared among all the partners involved in the construction project.
BIM ensures a reduction in fault-related costs, since we first use the support of ‘virtual construction’ before embarking on the actual construction.īIM begins with building awareness: being aware of potential improvements to be made in the areas of communication and coordination (for those who are familiar with the ‘Lean Approach’: Continuous Improvement). A construction model enables effective coordination and there is software to detect faults. Although the model is comprehensive, it does not automatically mean that all data can be found in a single database or file. It is a digital 3D model which integrates architecture, building and installations. Little BIM: the process used within a construction or installation company to optimize the design and building internally.īig BIM: the process used between all partners involved in the construction to optimize the design and building externally.Īn important final product of the BIM process is a construction model. BIM has since become an umbrella term to cover many aspects.īIM is divided into ‘Little BIM’ and ‘Big BIM’: We take care of the drawings, calculations, estimates, materials lists and planning.
BIM means ‘Building Information Modelling’: a process geared towards launching a complete construction project that includes all relevant information.
