While humans have been engineering architectural feats for thousands of years, traditional drawings are often siloed, stagnant, and vulnerable to rapid obsolescence. . Building information modeling (BIM) is set to change all that, its revolutionary goal since the 1970s when it was first proposed. BIM in Real Life .
