BIM
The construction industry is leveraging technology to make construction management and site operations more efficient and sustainable. The major construction industry trends include building information modeling (BIM), construction robotics, and the use of advanced building materials. Further, the COVID-19 pandemic creates the need for newer ways of construction that adhere to worker safety and regulations. […]
The construction industry is subject to many enduring pain points. The sector lacks enough skilled workforce, has stagnant productivity levels (1% growth in productivity over the past 20 years) and struggles with collaboration on project management. Several technologies have emerged to help address construction’s biggest woes. One of them is building information modelling (BIM). Building information […]
BIM has been the talk of the town in the AEC industry for several years. Yet, for all the talk, there is a lot of confusion about BIM in construction and how it can help contractors. One common misconception is that BIM is merely a technology, or that it only refers to 3D design (though 3D models […]
Building information modeling (BIM) is one of the most promising recent developments in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry. With BIM technology, an accurate virtual model of a building is digitally constructed. This model, known as a building information model, can be used for planning, design, construction, and operation of the facility. It helps architects, […]
Recent digital breakthroughs run alongside new hardware solutions with equal ingenuity. The following 10 recent breakthroughs include both areas of development. Discover how they can transform and prepare your operation for the future. Prefabrication Prefabrication is nothing new, but technology is making its benefits easier to access. Mobile technologies provide visibility into the manufacturing process […]
Construction 3D printing is a method for manufacturing construction elements or entire buildings by means of a 3D printer printing concrete, polymer, metal, or other materials, layer-by-layer. The most common type of printer is based on a robotic arm that moves back and forth while extruding concrete. Other methods for 3D printing include powder binding […]
VR technology is rich in potential uses for the BIM and AEC industry. With its growing popularity, it’s only a matter of time before we include Virtual Reality platforms to our growing list of software integrations In the meantime, I wanted to share with you (in no particular order) some of the notable VR platforms on the market […]
BIM Creators is a Dutch specialist in designing and applying 3D BIM models. The primary market is MEP (Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing) systems, but the company does spatial planning projects as well. All company activities are centered around BIM models: designing BIM projects design, performing clash detection, and creating data management systems so that project […]
Who hasn’t wanted to walk down the ever welcoming streets of Paris, or escape into the lush green pastures of New Zealand especially during a hectic working day? Who hasn’t wanted to go bungee jumping on a boring afternoon? Well, not everything is pocket friendly, but there’s indeed a way to experience all this sitting […]
