Everything you need to make the most of building information
modeling

If you're looking to get involved in the world of BIM, but don't
quite know where to start, Building Information Modeling For
Dummies is your one-stop guide to collaborative building using
one coherent system of computer models rather than as separate sets
of drawings. Inside, you'll find an easy-to-follow introduction to
BIM and hands-on guidance for understanding drivers for change, the
benefits of BIM, requirements you need to get started, and where
BIM is headed.

The future of BIM is bright--it provides the industry with
an increased understanding of predictability, improved efficiency,
integration and coordination, less waste, and better value and
quality. Additionally, the use of BIM goes beyond the planning and
design phase of the project, extending throughout the building life
cycle and supporting processes, including cost management,
construction management, project management, and facility
operation. Now heavily adopted in the U.S., Hong Kong, India,
Singapore, France, Canada, and countless other countries, BIM is
set to become a mandatory practice in building work in the UK, and
this friendly guide gives you everything you need to make sense of
it--fast.

* Demonstrates how BIM saves time and waste on site

* Shows you how the information generated from BIM leads to fewer
errors on site

* Explains how BIM is based on data sets that describe objects
virtually, mimicking the way they'll be handled physically in the
real world

* Helps you grasp how the integration of BIM allows every stage
of the life cycle to work together without data or process
conflict

Written by a team of well-known experts, this friendly, hands-on
guide gets you up and running with BIM fast.

Stefan Mordue is a chartered architect, construction project manager, registered CDM coordinator, and NBS technical author. Paul Swaddle is a chartered architect, BIM futurist, and NBS business solutions consultant. David Philip is head of BIM at Mace and part of the HM Government Task Group Core BIM team.
