This article is going to discuss specialist
BIM companies and the revolution they are at the heart of within the
construction industry.
BIM or Building Information Modelling is now
considered the gold standard that the design and construction industry must
work towards. BIM is essentially a collaborative approach to design and
construction, providing intelligent information which is available for, and
updated throughout the life-cycle of the building, helping to ensure the
longevity and cost effectiveness of the construction and management of the
building. The UK government is committed to having collaborative 3D BIM
Compliance on all its public sector projects by 2016.
BIM
companies – providing all the information you’ll ever need
Buildings Information Management is simple; it
is essentially software that contains all of the information you’ll ever need
about the building, from the design, construction materials and internal and
external structures and infrastructures. It should be updated and amended
regularly to reflect any changes to the building. Having this information in
the same place and available throughout the construction of the building and
later for use by buildings and facilities managers, will mean that the building
can be properly managed and any maintenance required will be easier given the
information to hand. Additionally having a thorough understanding of the
building will mean the life cycle of the property could be extended by a number
of years, helping to ensure longevity and cost effectiveness.
Intelligent
Decisions for a better future
BIM companies will enable the design and
construction industries to make intelligent decisions about the way they
construct buildings and the materials they use, working towards safer and more
efficient working conditions, implementing innovative energy efficiencies and
assist both facilities and building managers to proactively maintain and manage
a building throughout its intended lifecycle. Looking to the future,
industry-wide BIM compliance
in 2016 will lead to greater efficiencies within the design and construction
industries, passing the cost savings and long term management and maintenance
benefits on to the end user and ensuring the building is efficient in terms of
both cost and energy for the future.
Cost
saving and long term efficiencies for effective buildings management
There are various BIM companies are available
who have implemented the modelling techniques required as part of the move
towards BIM compliance. It not only proves to be effective for the construction
project, but also helps in minimising the cost of the long-term management and
maintenance of the building. The move towards BIM compliance can only be a
beneficial thing for the building and construction industries.
