FEBRUARY 15, 2012

Latest software for estimating & designing architectural projects. If the price surpass the budget then the architect have to make redesign until it come up with the budget. This software is ideal for generating floor plans, cost estimates, landscape designs, and masterful 3D illustrations. Wednesday, February 15, 2012.

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. Expectations and budgets got scarily out of synch. Clients generally became less aware of the real-realities of the industry.

When you look at a building as a product instead of a project, you realize that what you spend on design [typically 2% to 5% of the overall budget] has significant implications on bigger costs, such as materials [50%] and labor [15%].” We’re building it as we draw it, which is a departure from the norm.” Photo: Jeff A.

Building information modeling (BIM) is beginning to fundamentally change the building industry in a very positive way. In an industry known for construction delays and cost overruns, high quality BIM projects are being built on-time (or even early) and significantly under budget.

For some reason BIM authors (architects, engineers, etc) think that because they create the initial BIM information they have the right to full control and to charge for the BIM model throughout the life of the building. The architect doesn’t model ductwork, they use the mechanical engineer’s model.

build your as-built model in the existing phase. Once an as-built model is done you might want to archive a copy of the model just incase the design scope changes and you have to start all over again with a clean as-built. The model builder is going to have to do partial demolition of walls, floors, roofs, ceilings, etc.

At the time they were advised by a particular software provider how to get into BIM and that quickly saw them part with enough cash to purchase a dozen of BIM-suites and train a matching dozen of BIM modellers by the same provider. The company started on its BIM journey with big ambitions about 3 years ago.
