1. Introduction to Building
Information Modeling (BIM)
• Transforming the AEC Industry
• Presented by: Your Name
• Date: 2025

2. What is BIM?
• • BIM stands for Building Information
Modeling
• • A digital representation of physical and
functional characteristics of a facility
• • Serves as a shared knowledge resource for
information about a facility

3. Why BIM?
• • Improved collaboration
• • Better visualization
• • Accurate documentation
• • Clash detection
• • Cost & time savings

4. BIM vs Traditional Methods
• • Traditional CAD: 2D drawings, manual
updates
• • BIM: 3D intelligent models, automatic
updates
• • Enhanced accuracy and coordination

5. Key Components of BIM
• • 3D model
• • Data-rich elements
• • Coordination & collaboration
• • Lifecycle management

6. BIM Levels (0 to 3+)
• • Level 0: Paper-based, unmanaged CAD
• • Level 1: Managed CAD in 2D/3D
• • Level 2: Collaborative BIM using common
data environment
• • Level 3: Full integration, cloud-based

7. BIM Uses & Applications
• • Design visualization
• • Construction planning
• • Facility management
• • Cost estimation
• • Sustainability analysis

8. BIM Tools & Software
• • Revit – Architectural modeling
• • Navisworks – Clash detection
• • ArchiCAD – Design
• • Tekla – Structural modeling
• • AutoCAD – Drafting

9. Challenges in BIM Adoption
• • High initial cost
• • Need for training
• • Resistance to change
• • Interoperability issues

10. Future of BIM
• • Integration with IoT, AI, Digital Twins
• • Smart cities
• • Enhanced collaboration and automation
