Building Information Modeling BIM

BIM process supports the ability to coordinate, update, and share design data with team members throughout the design, construction, and management phases of a building's life

When a change is made anywhere in the model, all of the views update automatically
If you add an element in plan view, it displays in the related section and schedule views

Workflow

BIM has changed the process of how a building is designed

Plans, Elevations, Sections are simply 2D versions of the 3D Model

Changes made in one view automatically update in all views

Even Construction Documents update automatically with callout tags in sync with the sheet numbers
