BIM - BUILDING INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY

BIM APPLICATIONS IN AEC INFOGRAPHICS

THE FIRST PHASE OF THE SECOND PROJECT REQUIRES US TO PRODUCE A REVIT MODEL OF THE SELECTED ARCHITECTURE DESIGN USING ARCHITECTURAL COMPONENTS LIKE WALLS, ROOF, STAIRS, FLOOR, CURTAIN WALLS, DOORS AND WINDOWS. WE ARE REQUIRED TO DEMONSTRATE OUR UNDERSTANDING OF MODELLING IN A REVIT BY COMPILING OUR WORK IN PROGRESS (WIP).

*KINDLY CLICK THE TITLE 'PROJECT 1 - BIM APPLICATIONS IN AEC INFOGRAPHICS' FOR THE PROJECT' 1'S BRIEF

THIS PROJECT REQUIRES US TO CONDUCT A STUDY ON THE CURRENT APPLICATIONS OF BUILDING INFORMATION MODELING (BIM) IN THE ARCHITECTURE, ENGINEERING & CONSTRUCTION (AEC) FIELD. THIS PROJECT INTENDS TO EXPOSE US TO THE VARIOUS CURRENT APPLICATIONS IN

THE AEC INDUSTRIES, THROUGH AN IN-DEPTH REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE. THE FINDINGS ARE THEN PRESENTED IN THE FORM OF AN

INFO GRAPHIC. I HAVE SELECTED THE APPLICATIONS OF BIM IN PROJECT MANAGEMENT FOR MY STUDY FOCUS & HAVE CREATED A COMPREHENSIVE INFO GRAPHIC COVERING TOPICS .
