BIM - Building Information Modeling/Management
BIM - Two different names for the same software. What is it?
Just the latest in software that can empower projects from Charette to Completion, and from Architect through GC.
From AIA data, projects that use BIM and IPD (Integrated Project Delivery) stand to save 7% on contingency costs. (Typical projects run 10% contingencies, where BIM based projects are normally around 3%.)
"Clash Detection" is another BIG advantage with BIM based projects. This is the ability to determine, still in the design phase, if a project's various systems will intersect and cause problems. Even by being too close to any other element near that system. It's better to find this out on the computer, rather than in the field. This is part of the reason why contingencies are lower with BIM based projects.
Superior 3-D presentation capabilities. Clients love the ability to walk around the inside and exterior of a building before it is finished. To be able to do so in the design phase, and make design changes based on those experiences saves time and money before construction starts!
What to do? Hire Green Tek Haus and our staff of BIM experts! We have a great team for each of the major BIM platforms and some of the not-so famous ones, too! We can also help you with Sketch-Up, and using it as a tool to transition into BIM. Many "old-school" drafters find it easier to either: learn Sketch-Up and use it in conjunction with BIM, or find a firm (like ours) to enable them to send sketches (or scans of) to us to implement into the BIM model(s).
Please contact us today for a free quote! We can help with BIM Trainings, IT, Implementations, Migrations, Standards and more, too! Please CLICK here to see our VectorWorks (BIM with CAD output) Example Files.
