What is BIM?

Building Information Modelling (BIM) is the process of generating and managing building data during its lifecycle. BIM involves representing a design as objects that carry their geometry, relations and attributes.

BIM allows construction professionals to explore key physical and functional characteristics of a project digitally before it’s built. Using BIM to simulate real-world performance for a better understanding of the impacts on cost, schedule and sustainability allow them to identify and resolve problems early in the design phase.

BIM is NOT a software platform, although there is software that enables BIM E.G. Autodesk Revit and Graphisoft ArchiCAD.
