A must-have reference to create content-rich BIM objects and
models
A cutting-edge technology, Building Information Modeling BIM
software allows AEC professionals to produce data-intensive 3D
building models that far exceed those rendered with the 2D
limitations of CAD, today''s industry standard. Unlike CAD, however,
no consensus has been reached among AEC industries for agreed upon
guidelines directing BIM models. To fill this void, this book
explores the different approaches used in designing a BIM model and
incorporates them into one cohesive strategy that serves as a
digital road map going forward.
BIM Content Development:
Details the various types of information graphic and data that
Building Information Modeling BIM can gather about a building,
such as its dimensions and material, its performance, its
functionality, its interaction with other structures, and how often
it must be maintained
Presents a vendor-neutral approach to thinking about, organizing,
and managing data used to create a 3D building model
Covers the different methods for organizing content, such as CSI''s
MasterFormat, Uniformat, OmniClass, and Industry
Foundation Classes IFC
Providing the means and methods for effective content creation, BIM
Content Development offers sound guidance for graphic standards and
data management solutions to maximize the ability of professionals
to operate on any BIM software platform-and shows how to strengthen
the decision-making process to unleash powerful tools for modeling
a building''s informational profile.
