What is Cost Estimation? A 5D BIM model is an extended 4D BIM model with a variable known as cost of labour and materials needed for construction. A 5D BIM model enables fast estimation of cost for purchasing, installing, running, maintenance and renewal costs as the estimation process is automated through the adoption of a … Read more
4D Progress Monitoring A 4D BIM model is an extended 3D BIM model with an additional feature, known as time in the form of a schedule. A 3D BIM model with the attachment of time allows the team to carry out progress monitoring of the construction process during both design and actual construction phases. Click … Read more
BIM Constructability Analysis BIM-based constructability analysis is vital as it is used to review construction processes and methods during the design phase, which helps to identify potential obstacles and find ways to resolve any constructability issues that might occur during the course of the project. The team can review the entire project from the conceptual … Read more
2D Shop Drawings Apart from drawings for building constructions, Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software can also be used to generate shop drawings for prefabricated components like trusses, elevators, windows, cabinets, ductwork, plumbing, piping, HVAC, equipment which are produced by the contractor, supplier, manufacturer, fabricator or sub-contractors in the Architectural, Structural and MEP (Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing) … Read more
