Quatrième de couverture:

Successfully Integrate BIM Throughout the Construction Life cycle

This practical book offers proven tools, methods, workflows, and invaluable insight on successfully integrating building information modeling into

every construction project. What′s a good system for model management? How do you distribute tasks among a team? How can contractors thousands of miles away work with your BIM models at the home office? From estimating, clash detection, and sustainability to in–field RFIs, facility management, and more, this book takes you way past theory into real–world specifics on implementing BIM throughout the entire construction life cycle.

Construction manager and architect Brad Hardin has managed BIM–enabled construction projects around the world, and he taps into his experience to provide hands–on tutorials, broad coverage of multiple software packages, and pages crammed with practical tips, smart tactics, and field–tested techniques.

• Set up the BIM project to succeed from the start by using the right contracts, the right processes, and the right technology

• Leverage BIM preconstruction tools for site and constructability evaluation

• Help the estimating group improve accuracy and get team buy–in

• Enhance communication within the team and with outside trades and vendors

• Weave together civil, structural, MEP, LEED standards, and sustainability data into effective BIM workflows

• Extract site and topographical information and create a plan model for site logistics and staging

• Deliver 4D animations and stills for clients, team members, and construction personnel

• Stay grounded in reality with team–responsibility checklists and implementation strategies

• Learn proven methods for tracking and managing in–field RFIs, shop drawings, and submittals

• Eliminate blueprints and multiple paper trails with a single–source facility management model
