Engineering Drawings

2,000 years ago Today

Not much has changed in 2,000 years Today we use CAD

Traditional CAD

Focus on drawings production Project’s information in multiple

files and formats Difficulty to manage changes

late in the project Risk of data loss during

multidiscipline coordination

Linear Workflows Traditional CAD

Building Information Modeling

Building Information Modeling (BIM) provides insight for creating and managing projects faster, more economically, and with less environmental impact.

Not always called BIM. Also referred to as (VDC) Virtual Design and Construction

MANAGE

BUILD

DESIGN

PLAN

BIM is an intelligent 3D model–based process

Others include… MBD, EED, DP and more.

Why is BIM important to the Civil Industry? Benefits

Decreasing operating costs and exposure to liability Consolidate design applications and maintain internal standards

Strengthen relationships with clients and vendors Deliver consistent / reliable results

Distinguish services from the competition Unequaled responsiveness to design changes and alternatives

Attracting and retaining competent professionals Implement/adopt industry leading tools and practices

BIM is more than just the model 3D Models Have a number of downstream uses Quantity takeoffs Construction Sequencing Cost Estimates Renderings / Animations Public meetings / hearings Referendums Documentation Automated Machine Guidance Below grade coordination Hydrology And more….
