The Use Bim Modeling For Building Construction Projects

BIM is an integrated method that helps engineers to visualize project’s critical physical and functional characteristics digitally – before it is constructed! BIM process improves the structural engineer’s workflow and can help structural engineer actively contribute to the sustainable design of a building. The BIM solution are available in the industry market which are based on coordinated and more consistent information generated with Revit and AutoCAD Civil 3D software.

One of the most important progresses in building applications for BIM is the project planning where design and construction come together. At the core of a project planning, there lies building design, the backbone of a project planning. 4D scheduling plays an important role in project planning. With 4D construction simulation process, architects can evaluate various options and choose the best alternative at project design phase.

How BIM Modeling is Beneficial for Building Construction Projects

4D modeling is an advanced development over 3D Model. Some of the factors are as follows:

Difference between Detection and Declaration: During design and building construction factor, potential spatial conflicts may arise between building components. It is not easy to identify or predict these conflicts using 2D or 3D layouts. But, 4D model identifies various issues related to space, schedule and sequencing, and resolve them ahead of the construction process.

Advanced combination and Cost evaluation: Integrating human resources, equipment and material resources with the BIM model, 4D scheduling helps to better schedule and cost estimate of the project. 4D BIM also monitors procurement status of project materials.

Plan of the Project: 4D model allows the scheduler to view the entire construction site in a nutshell. The scheduler is able to move around, look outside, inside and under the building and verify the progress of project. It helps the scheduler to detect inconsistency and avoid visual incongruities in the representation.

Better Time Management: Integrated with BIM modeling, 4D scheduling helps the owner as well as project team to easily visualize time constraints and opportunities of improvement and investment in the project.
