1. Top reasons for using Building Information Modeling!
The landscape of Architecture, Engineering and Construction industry has experienced a drastic
change in the last few years globally. Today only few people construct stand alone houses which
were quite prevalent a few decades ago, that means common people are now inclining towards
buying flats and apartments according to their requirements. Due to advancements in technology
and tools sophisticated flats and apartments are getting constructed and more and more people
are buying them today as they are not that expensive.
With the advancement in technology and techniques drastic changes are taking place in imaging
and building documentation process. Implementation of right technology and methods is the key
to accomplish a building project today. The right technology that I am talking about is Building
Information Modeling which is used for performing multiple tasks throughout the project
lifecycle by design and construction professionals.
One of the prime reasons for using BIM is to separately develop the design of individual building
disciplines such as architecture, structure and MEP with the help of Revit Architecture, Revit
Structure and Revit MEP respectively.
Brilliant design is developed with the assistance of all these BIM software as they provide great
platform for design development in terms of allowing design team members to collaborate and
coordinate successfully. Distribution of information effectively among design development
teams allow them to create accurate and effective design. Multidiscipline BIM models that are
generated by design development teams with the assistance of Revit can be further fine-tuned.
When I say fine-tuning the design, it means removing the errors from the design and that is
achieved by AEC professionals by executing clash detection process.
Navisworks plays an important role in clash detection as it incorporates effective tools that are
indispensable for users when it comes to detecting the errors. Errors are always detected between
model elements belonging to different disciplines. Clash detective tool of Navisworks allow
AEC professionals to identify every possible error that exist between model elements. Solutions
for the detected errors are provided after that. Clash detection process is largely accountable for
eliminating costly rework which eventually leads to seamless construction.
Building Information Modeling also help in developing energy efficient buildings since Revit
allows architects and engineers to develop energy analytical models.
