If you are, or have been involved with BIM in any sort of form, move past the cheesy headline of this post and think: are you truly confident that this ‘BIM’ thing is working? After all, there almost never are two projects available with exactly the same set of base conditions, done in parallel, one with and one without BIM.

BIM objects are much more than just graphical representations. All BIM objects have properties, and most also have geometries (although some do not, for example a paint finish).
