Building Information Modeling (BIM) is the innovative growth driver for digitalization and modernization in construction. The advanced technology supports building technology planners in the management and visualization of complex projects.
BIM software enables planning projects to manage data more efficiently and automate workflows to achieve higher productivity and more control over building services planning. With BIM, planners can optimize building lifecycles and reduce the cost of building construction and maintenance.
The most important facts in brief
Modern BIM solutions facilitate the planning, construction and maintenance of even complex construction projects
Shared data environments facilitate the interoperability of different trades
BIM programs with a wide range of application options increase the effectiveness of processes and reduce costs sustainably
What exactly is BIM software and what must it be able to do?
BIM as such is initially not software, but a control and planning concept that handles the entire life cycle of a building with digitized and virtual detailed information.
A BIM system based on this method enables optimized planning, construction and management of buildings. For this purpose, a digital twin of the real building is created, which combines all construction plans and data in a precise 3D model.
All parties involved, from architects, planners and engineers to construction companies and facility managers, work with this model. This results in smooth collaboration throughout the entire life cycle of the building.
