This fact brought home the realisation, that it is exactly 20 years since I bought my first ArchiCAD licence. That date did not mark my introduction to (what much later become) BIM, for a number of years before 1996 (about 5) I dabbled with 3D AutoCAD (fully modelled buildings with it in DOS). Again, you must use ArchiCAD.

I consider myself to be a model-based construction information practitioner (shortened to a ‘BIM- meddler’) rather than an ‘expert’ or even ‘specialist’ Thursday, December 1, 2011. Still, when I put on the hat of the ‘virtual design manager/construction coordinator’, I go for Archicad.

I observed a phenomena: over the years the number of users of 3D (model) based software in AEC has raised dramatically while their average skill level dropped tragically. Archicad did it for an entire decade through the nineties; Presently, both packages and many more are all plodding along route 2.

While the industry is currently fixated upon 3D visualization tools, aka Revit, Archicad, Bentely… they only represent components of a BIM solution. First and foremost BIM is the life-cycle management of the built environment supported by digital technology.

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.
