Building Information Management

MAY 16, 2013

Building Information Modeling, BIM, is the life-cycle management of the built environment supported by digital technology. As such, the core requirements of BIM include collaboration, standardized information, multiple domain competencies, and several supporting interoperable technologies. Why is BIM of to a slow start?

I’ve been asked by one of my industry software provider friends to write a piece on the current state of Building Information Modeling (BIM), as it relates to estimating in the here and now. BIM is fully useful now. In the building sector, BIM is largely confined to the design-build arena. Why Design-Build?

In an era of rising costs and new technology, here’s how to bring more accuracy to construction estimating. . When it comes time to kick off a new construction job, an accurate estimate is the first step toward project success. What is a Construction Estimate? Usually, an accurate estimate is set before you place a bid.

BIM based computerized quantity take-off and cost-estimating solution has flourished in the last 4-5 years. Quantity take off procedure can be enhanced with BIM as estimate of the quantities are derived from BIM models and the model contains the information on all the objects in the building in addition to their dimensions.

BIM objects are much more than just graphical representations. Using them as placeholder to connect to a wider source of information provides for a powerful and rich source of information. . All BIM objects have properties, and most also have geometries (although some do not, for example a paint finish).

BIM is the life-cycle management of the built environment supported by technology. It is a calculation of all facilities-specific costs (not including furnishings or non-facility specific equipment) divided by estimated lifespan of the building (30 or 50 years), and the total gross area. Is this an appropriate metric?

With rising material costs and razor-thin margins, construction professionals must ensure that project costs and materials are precisely estimated so they can make accurate projections and optimize their bids. . While each project is unique, estimators often rely on years of knowledge of what materials are required to complete the project.
