When VICO picked up Constructor about 5 years ago, it elected to upscale the reasonably capable but also architect biased modelling software into a complicated construction suite. Get rid of the architectural baggage Archicad was weighed down with, and make Constructor a stand alone, construction focused, modelling package.

Worse even from that fact, it did little to improve the processes (don’t believe me, go to weekly meetings of medium to large projects), it had done almost nothing to increase accountability and decrease corrupt practices that plague the industry. I say, I see no future for current BIM.

Still, when I put on the hat of the ‘virtual design manager/construction coordinator’, I go for Archicad.

While I personally all but stopped following any media on BIM, crazy ideas do emerge still of some alternative BIMs, prompted by reading words like ‘revolution’ and ‘disruptive technology’ in relation to the industry and what BIM is doing or will be doing to it. But, maybe it is OK like this – this industry is stuck where it wants to be.

First, many years before it became live, I predicted, that the ‘British wholesale BIM Mandate’ was not going to work – even though the letters behind the names of those driving it, could complete the entire alphabet, I guessed, all of them together could hardly model a barn or a small outhouse at any LOD, if their life was depending on it.

Many remain confused about the meaning and value of BIM (building information modeling). BIM is NOT 3D modeling (Revit, Archicad, Bentley, etc.), BIM is the visualization and modeling of the built environment to assist in associated decision support, via ANY means, leveraging digital technology.

I really truly beleive that moving to a non object based Computer Tool like 2D CAD was one of the worst things our industry ever did.
