A digital 3D model of a building that contains detailed information used for designing, building, and managing the structure.
Building Information Modeling is a digital process and technology platform in which a three-dimensional, data-rich model of a building is created and shared among project team members throughout design, construction, and operations. BIM models contain not just geometric information but also data about materials, costs, schedules, and systems, enabling clash detection, quantity takeoffs, and coordination among disciplines. BIM use is increasingly required by owners and mandated by government agencies on large projects.
The project team runs BIM clash detection and finds 37 conflicts between structural steel and MEP routing before any work begins in the field.
