How does BIM help Architects and Contractors?

Every industry involves chances of risk and responsibilities, but the Construction industry is the ones who are engaged in higher-stakes of risk that may include loss of human life. Taking Safety measures is a major priority for the construction industry. So by using BIM Services, it can help Architects, Engineers, and contractors reduce these risks in an efficient manner than conventional processes.

What is BIM?

At present, BIM (Building Information Modeling) is quite a buzzword for the construction industry. It is a procedure that links all the necessary part of the design and construction process. BIM helps in a thorough understanding of the projects to make a correct decision afterward

Benefits of BIM for Architects and Contractors

  • For Architects, it is easier to make their clients and contractors understand the design from scratch to finish. The modification can be easily created and recognized by them. Clash Detection and Resolution can be carried out in the model itself.
  • It is less time-consuming and economical for the architects that might have spent time on coordination, processes etc.
  • BIM gives a digital representation of any structure that has made work for architects better that helps them to communicate their designs well and make minimized errors in complying information.
  • For Contractors, Their work got more effective due to amounts of data and level of details provided by the 3D Models. It helps them to enter their information in terms of product information and job site activities under Common data environment (CDE) In case of any queries, Contractors can enter Request for information form directly in the model for architects to rectify errors before construction work begins.
  • BIM benefits the most for the contractors in providing accurate digital representation for validating cost estimates and risk evaluation.

Conclusion

The future hold of using BIM would be enhanced more and more by Architects, Engineers, and designers when they would start grappling the benefits for those clients who require information in a compatible format. Collaboratively working is an essential part of BIM. Teamwork is enhanced by using BIM for Architects and Contractors. BIM helps them to provide a higher level of detail so detect clashes, cost estimates, and make schedules more accurate
