The Increasing Importance of BIM for Civil Engineering
Every building project, no matter how small, comes with many aspects to consider and disciplines to reconcile. Sometimes, that’s the hardest part — having everyone work together without getting in each other’s way. For decades now, architects, engineers, and building contractors have looked for ways to resolve this problem, as well as cut project costs […]
BIM and Collaboration Between Structural Engineers and Drafters – Ep 016
As BIM evolves into two groups, namely structural engineers and drafters, the groups need to start working closely together. When BIM tools get better, the BIM tools will link with structural analysis better.
BIM as an Effective Tool in Project Management
BIM (Building Information Modeling) has been revolutionizing the AEC industry in terms of economic and technical viability, over the past few years. The advantages of the long-term application of BIM can be leveraged most efficiently in the field of project management. The need for management of an asset is a continuous process; from inception to […]
