Moreover, it also helps to digitize many aspects of the building’s lifecycle, going further beyond than only the design phase.
When implemented effectively, it can also influence changes in a CAD design. Simply put, BIM makes CAD drawings come alive it makes them become smarter, more dynamic and provide much more information of the many systems that can be integrated into a building. Not to be confused with Computer Aided Designs (or CAD), whose purpose is focused solely on drafting and design, BIM uses CAD as a medium for bringing broad-scoped information about a building together. How does BIM work?īuilding Information Modeling integrates smart insights to tangible aspects of a building. With governments enforcing the use of BIM in new projects and a growing understanding of the benefits it offers for the AEC industry, the BIM global market is expected to grow from the 4.5 billion USD reported in 2020, to 8.8 billion USD by 2025, with North America being the spearhead followed by Europe and Asia Pacific. Nowadays, besides being an acronym that catches the eye of many looking into innovation in the construction industry, it has become an essential part in the sector. First introduced in the market in 1992, BIM began gaining traction a little over 10 years later.
