Guide to Getting Started with BIM

If you're looking to gain a comprehensive understanding of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and its various applications in the construction industry, our latest guide is an excellent resource for you. 

This free-to-download guide provides a detailed overview of BIM's fundamentals, history, international standards, implementation, and more, with the aim of empowering construction professionals to harness the full potential of BIM. Additionally, it highlights how BIM can enhance project efficiency, minimise errors, and increase transparency, thus making it a must-read for anyone interested in BIM.

BIM has revolutionised the construction industry by changing the way stakeholders collaborate, plan, and execute construction projects, from design through to maintenance. Due to its advanced digital representation of a building over traditional methods, BIM has become an industry-standard in design and is widely used by architects, specifiers, and other industry professionals.

According to Dodge Data & Analytics, 88% of architects and engineers believe that BIM enables better design insight, and 82% of BIM users have reported achieving a positive ROI.

As the industry focuses on maintaining an accurate "golden thread" of information and the decarbonisation of the built environment, the impact of BIM will grow even stronger. BIM already plays a vital role in creating and maintaining up-to-date golden threads of information, which optimise production, reduce costs, and champion sustainable practices. Its importance in this regard will only increase in the future, making it an essential tool for all construction professionals.
