Digital Platform based Shop-drawing assessment Construction Information Management has been an interest of mine for a good 30 years. Over this time I become a fairly competent BIM implementer and had been involved with some pretty large projects all over the world. The process is linear and mostly broken over disciplines.

Engineering firm Melia Smith & Jones uses SOFiSTiK software for 3D rebar modelling in Autodesk Revit. Most engineers still produce classic 2D reinforcement drawings using programs such as AutoCAD ® combined with CADS RC. SOFiSTiK involves the annotation side when creating reinforcement drawings in Autodesk Revit.

Revit Structure was introduced (2005) and the conversation began again with engineers. A year later Revit Systems (now MEP) started the same dialog for another set of engineers. The notion of using computers to help accomplish the broad goals of BIM is nearly as old as computers so it''s not a brand new idea.

The contrast of texture is a method that draws attention to a particular point or place of a design by the texture. Visual weight is the property that gives elements in a design an ability to draw attention. Whereas if an element has a high visual weight that means that this element has the probability of drawing eyes towards it.

Building Information Modeling (BIM) can be a valuable tool in the hands of anyone who works in construction. That’s why, it’s critical for all construction agents to be aware of the different BIM maturity levels. Before we go further with that, it would really be useful to try to define what BIM actually means.
