COURSE DESCRIPTION
BIM is a process for creating and managing information on a construction project throughout its whole life cycle. As part of this process, a coordinated digital description of every aspect of the built asset is developed, using a set of appropriate technology. It is likely that this digital description includes a combination of information-rich 3D models and associated structured data such as product, execution and handover information.
BIM is used to improve the efficiency of the construction process, reduce waste during the construction and to improve the buildings. Intentionally, the BIM process and associated data structures are best defined in the ISO 19650 and 12006 series of standards.
BIM is the gathering of the following three components:
1. Agile development
2. Lean construction for the building industry.
3. Complete digitalisation of building design processes.
