Abstract

Technology is changing the way industry does business. The construction industry is going through similar changes with the adoption of Building Information Modeling (BIM). Visualization of the entire construction process and understanding each individual assembly of materials has become a standard requirement for individuals in the construction industry. It is this visualization or BIM technology of the structure that most of the Architectural, Engineering and Construction (AEC) companies are embracing or adopting currently. BIM is taking hold of a majority of projects across the nation and all over the world. Traditional ways of visualizing buildings limited the AEC professional to individual capabilities and usually took several years to develop and master. BIM is giving everyone in the construction industry that very mental visualization much quicker. Building Information Modeling not only helps the construction professional, but is also helping the clients visualize what their building will look like when done. Visualization is not the only change occurring in the AEC industry-productivity is undergoing a drastic change as well. The benefits of BIM are occurring across the entire Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry.
