3. How Does BIM Work? Accurate steel members - Size, weight, performance, cost. Accurate connections Accurate 3D position Simulation of - Installation process & equipment requirements - lighting - structural performance - etc. Overlap with other 3D elements to identify collisions. - Mech, elec, plbg, - Walls, ceilings, FF&E - Access for maint. & repair Illustration…..
4. Influence vs Cost Curve Typical ‘Value’ Engineering ! Virtual Building Design Proposed Entry 25% 75% Lifecyclecost Strategy Design Construction Operation Cost of Changes Ability to Change Effort
