Introduction to Building Information Modeling (BIM)

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a digital design and planning process that improves collaboration and communication between architects, engineers and construction companies. BIM enables the creation of a digital model of a building that contains all relevant information, such as geometric data, materials, installations and operational data. This digital model can be used throughout the entire life cycle of the building, from planning to maintenance.

BIM is an important part of the digital transformation in the construction industry and offers many benefits, such as improved planning accuracy, reduced construction time and increased efficiency. BIM can also be used to improve the sustainability of buildings by analyzing the energy efficiency and environmental impact of buildings.
