3. BIM technology

• Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a
digital representation of physical and
functional characteristics of a facility. A BIM is
a shared knowledge resource for information
about a facility forming a reliable basis for
decisions during its life-cycle; defined as
existing from earliest conception to demolition

4. Participating Technologies

AutoCAD
AutoCAD Revit
Autodesk Navisworks
Autodesk Entire Portfolio
Bentley-Microstation
ArchiCAD, Intergraph, Solidworks

5. The goal of BIM is to empower all parties involved in a construction project to share, collaborate and interact seamlessly, driving time and cost savings

6. Improved communication between project parties.

• Project parties can understand and review the
design more easily, which helps guarantee its
accuracy and completeness, and visualize and
evaluate alternatives in terms of cost and
other project parameters.

7. BIM throughout the project life-cycle

• Management of
building information
models
• BIM in construction
management
• BIM in facility operation
• BIM in land
administration and
cadastre

8. Advantages Disadvantages

Advantages
• Improved visualization
• Improved productivity due to
easy retrieval of information
• Increased coordination of
construction documents
• Embedding and linking of vital
information such as vendors for
specific materials, location of
details and quantities required
for estimation and tendering
• Increased speed of delivery
• Reduced costs
Disadvantages
• The complexity of the
study of technology
• Expensive software

9. BIM advantages in figures

• 20 % reduction in build costs
• 33% reduction of costs over the lifetime of the building
• 47% to 65% reduction in conflicts and re-work during
construction
• 44% to 59% increase in the overall project quality
• 35% to 43% reduction in risk, better predictability of
outcomes
• 34% to 40% better performing completed infrastructure
• 32% to38% improvement in review and approval cycles

10. Conclusion

BIM encompasses two key attributes:
Object intelligence: the ability to associate material
and assembly data with graphic elements.
3D: complete 3D graphic representation of buil
dings.
But BIM is still evolving, and challenges remain.
Standards for the management and exchange of
data need to be agreed on.
