BIM
Building information modeling is a state-of-the-art technique for optimizing project work in the construction industry across the entire building lifecycle – from design, planning, construction and management right through to demolition. Architects and engineers with different specialties work together in highly connected teams to create a central, digital building model. This model, which is also known as the “digital twin,” can also be used in future lifecycle phases – for example, construction scheduling or maintenance – and so helps to avoid errors and cut costs.
