Preventing loss of information:
BIM is a shared information pool where every stakeholder enters relevant data; Building Information Modeling services are thus able to ensure that there are no information losses at the time of handing over the project to the next stakeholder. Information losses have been a problem with all the conventional building systems as the different stakeholders tend to work in isolation; however BIM helps establish a shared resource where the information is safe for the entire lifecycle of the structure.
Added dimensions:
BIM offers a much wider scope as it is not about just the two dimensions (2D) of the traditional design and drafting process or three dimensions (3D) of the CAD software. It adds two more dimensions to the three dimensions of CAD programs- length, breadth and depth- that are cost and time. It is, therefore, able to present a more holistic view of the building process, not just the geometry.
A consistent process:
BIM consists of several powerful design tools that allow the designers to extract different views from a comprehensive building model. They can thus produce drawings that give a very accurate and realistic idea of the final structure as they are based on a single instance of each object and are always consistent.
Unlike all the existing building systems, Building Information Modeling services provide a process that is simple and smooth. It defines objects as parameters in relationship with other objects. This means that in case one object changes, all the related objects are altered accordingly. This helps you save time and improve efficiency.
