The majority of BIM use remained in the design, procurement and planning stages and as such, only isolated current impacts on the CM were suggested. The study centered upon the development of Building Information Modelling (BIM) in the UK construction industry and its pontential affect on the role of the client’s construction manager (CM).

A small degree of cracking is quite common in most concrete structures, and can sometimes be ignored depending on how prevalent they are. Since the main function of concrete in the cover zone is to protect the steel reinforcement from corrosion, cracks in floor slabs can generally be filled with a cement paste. Anyway good job.

This is the third blog post in a series that discusses the advantages of working on concrete projects in a BIM process for structural engineers. Segmentation is dictated by engineering, architectural, or fabrication requirements, and its reinforcement is determined by the structural engineer.

Life-cycle information exchanges have previously been identified in the structural steel domain—an analysis model, a design model, and a detailed model. The analysis model reflects the needs of structural engineers to evaluate the requirements of the building and size the system to meet the facility’s requirements.
