While the industry is currently fixated upon 3D visualization tools, aka Revit, Archicad, Bentely… they only represent components of a BIM solution. Here’s a list of BIM Construction Cost Estimating Requirements: 1. Appropriate level of technology to assure productivity, collaboration, security, audit trail.

That said, BIM has been preoccupied with 3D visualization to the extent that many/most feel that Revit, Archicad, et al are all that’s needed to implement BIM. BIM is the life-cycle management of the built environment supported by digital technology. RSMeans Strategic Partner.

Revit, Archicad et al… are NOT BIM, but rather 3D visualization components of BIM. We currently serve over 85% of United States Air Force bases and rapidly growing numbers of other DOD and non-DOD (United States Army Corps of Engineers, Army, GSA, Homeland Security, VA.)

Forget the 3D visualization distraction for a moment and let’s focus on the important component of the BIM acronym; the “I” for information. A good example is the continued use of proprietary spreadsheets for cost estimating and other somewhat complex domains. INTRODUCTION. Proprietary (e.g.,

The topics include the use of BIM in: student projects, interdisciplinary collaboration in studios, scheduling and estimating classes, IPD projects and facilities management. This has included “CAD” using PEAC, GDS, MicroGDS, AutoCAD, MicroStation, SketchUp, ArchiCAD and “Raster” using Cadcore/Hitachi PrEditor, ScanGraphics, Scan2CAD, etc.
