What Is BIM

Model
• Building Information
Modeling (BIM) is a
digital representation of
physical and functional
characteristics of a
facility.
• BIM is a shared
knowledge resource for
information about a
facility forming a
reliable basis for
decisions during its life-
cycle

What Is BIM
It is Process Revolution
Information Management
New Design Thinking
Construction Solutions

• BIM is a process that
involves creating and using
an intelligent 3D model to
inform and communicate
project decisions.
• Design, visualization &
simulation

Re define and re think about
• Design Process
• Design, Information, Presentation & Deliverables
• Design is a group of scheduled decision
• Design is construction able solutions
Give answer to :
• What is the reason to do this by this way and when ?
• Project Level of integrity
You are moving :
• From Text to Parameter
• From Element to Object
• Early Solutions On office before expensive on site
New Definitions before Shifting to BIM

• Revit Model ( as Contract )
• DWG Format
LOD 100 - Essentially the
equivalent of conceptual
design, the model would
consist of overall building
massing and the downstream
users are authorized to perform
whole building types of analysis
(volume, building orientation,
cost per square foot, etc.)
LOD 200 - Similar to schematic
design or design
development, the model would
consist of "generalized systems
or assemblies with approximate
quantities, size, shape, location
and orientation.

• 2D PDF Files
• IFC Format
• DWF Format
• Revit Model ( as Contract )
• DWG Format
LOD 300 - Model elements are
suitable for the generation of
traditional construction
documents and shop
drawings. As such, analysis
and simulation is authorized for
detailed elements and systems.
LOD 500 - The final level of
development represents the
project as it has been
constructed - the as-built
conditions. The model is
suitable for maintenance and
operations of the facility.
