In the new BIM Guidebook for MEP Designers we explore how BIM workflows empower MEP design work during each project work stage from conception to construction. The guidebook also explains how advanced design software, such as MagiCAD, use the data in a BIM model for intelligent digital engineering functionalities.

BIM
Early phase design—also referred to as conceptual design or preliminary design—is a phase of the design process preceding the detailed design of the various building services systems. An investment into early phase design has the potential to address some key issues that appear in later design phases.

When examining the history of BIM adoption we see that it starts with a vision for digitalisation supported by technological innovations and development. This was then followed by industry initiatives on standardisation and country specific BIM mandates. The innovation and development of BIM technologies has been led by key software providers which followed different strategies. […]

Building Information Modelling (BIM) has transformed the building industry, improving productivity profitability and project quality. However, transitioning to BIM is not always as easy as it sounds and there are some existing challenges that may hold back BIM on the level of national programs, project disciplines, and even individual companies.
BIMWhite Paper
Building Information Modelling (BIM) has already had a transformative impact on the practices, efficiency, and results of the building industry. Digitalisation has automated routine tasks, empowered creative efforts, and produced financial and quality benefits at every stage of a building project. Subsequently, many countries have taken concrete steps to establish official guidelines and mandates for BIM technology use in construction.

We recently talked with Arto Kiviniemi, Honorary Research Senior Fellow at University of Liverpool, about the current state and future of BIM adoption in Europe. The following is an excerpt from our interview.
The full interview will be available in an upcoming white paper: BIM adoption in Europe – Current state, challenges, and a vision of tomorrow.

Digital Twins are slowly making their way into construction. A digital twin is a virtual model of a building that collects real-world information about the structure via sensors, drones and other wireless technology. The “twin” continuously learns from multiple sources, including advanced analytics, machine-learning algorithms and artificial intelligence (AI) to gain valuable insights about the […]

Why use BIM? BIM is used to improve the efficiency of the construction process, reduce waste during the construction and to improve the quality and the efficiency of the buildings. Many advanced industries have championed the concept of “Failing Fast.” That is, experimenting and trying new things – even if the first time around means failure – leading to another iteration and eventual success.
