BIM Concept
A
shift in process and expectation is happening in the Indian construction
market
following the economic bloom and gloom, and architects are stepping up to the challenge. The focus is shifting from traditional 2D based to
a practical reality with respect to functional,
economic, energy, etc. All disciplines involved with a project can share a
single database. Architecture, structure,
mechanical,electrical, infrastructure, and construction are tied together and
challenge to coordinate them is unprecedentedly possible. Energy analysis can
be done at early stage of design, and construction costs are becoming more
predictable.
BIM allows use of a parametric
3D model to auto generate traditional building documents such as plans,
sections, elevations, details, and schedules. Drawings produced using BIM
supported software’s are not of manually coordinated lines, but interactive representations of a model. The changes made
in this Model are automatically coordinated throughout the project, which
eliminate the coordination mistakes, improve overall quality of the work.
There are many modeling software
packages in the fields which have excellent
application for conceptual level models, but these models don’t have the ability
to document a building design for construction.
