Why is building information modeling (BIM) valuable to engineers as well as architects?
BIM enables architects and engineers to effectively collaborate in three dimensions to design better-integrated, better-coordinated buildings. The ease of design iteration in BIM also allows engineers and architects to objectively investigate and compare options that otherwise wouldn’t be considered.Finally, we believe BIM has the potential to deliver more cost-effective construction through better inter-disciplinary coordination with the future capability of using the building information model for direct fabrication. 3. How can project teams benefit from working within an integrated building information model? The benefits are numerous. By working within a shared building information model, engineers and architects can more effectively communicate design intent to clients and stakeholders; provide better integrated, sustainable solutions; reduce coordination clashes and interferences between disciplines; more quickly and easily evaluate alternatives; reduce requests for information a
