Construction timeline software5/28/2023 ![]() ![]() A building information model can be designed in software that may or may not be parametric. ![]() As an infrastructure project develops, project drawings and changes are correspondingly adjusted with each change in the model. Modern BIM models are 3D with orthographic 2D plans that also come with section and elevation views. Most modern BIM can render engines, optimize feature specific taxonomy and program environment to build model components, and ambition to do more. We thoroughly discussed what Building Information Modelling (BIM) is in a previous post but for clarity of this article, the ideal BIM software is capable of representing the physical and intrinsic properties of a building as an object-oriented model tied to a database (Bergin, 2011). All these engaging stories come down to the race to create the perfect collaborative solution to disrupt the 2D CAD work flows (Bergin, 2011). ![]() It’s also interesting to note that a portion of BIM’s history is entwined with the Cold War. The concept of BIM is not attributed to one person but is a rich history of innovation from the United States, Central and Northern Europe and all the way to Japan. It has been the buzzword and may seem new to many but in actuality, the ideas and technologies behind BIM have been evolving for more than fifty years (Silva, 2011). For the last two years, everyone’s gushing about BIM in building and construction expos. Lately, building information modelling ( BIM) has been making waves in the construction industry. ![]()
