Understanding Building Information Modeling

Building Information Modeling, known as BIM, has several definitions. In simple terms, it is the process of creating and managing information for a constructed asset. This includes; buildings, bridges, dams, or any of a wide range of structures.  BIM is a digital representation of the project’s functional properties and characteristics. It is a comprehensive process for creating, managing, and using the entirety of the data about a specific project.  It provides the architect, designer, or builder with the ability to manage every component. This includes; physical properties, graphic look, and the functional properties that goes into a project.

BIM services involve the development of an advanced 3D model for a proposed project and includes all structural, architectural, and mechanical/electrical/plumbing components.
