BUILDING SMARTER

Sneha Gurjar explores the practical applications of BIM in today ’ s construction projects

Building Information Modeling ( BIM ) has emerged as a groundbreaking catalyst in the construction sector , fundamentally altering how projects are conceptualized , designed , and executed today . The transition from conventional design methodologies to AI-driven processes has ushered in unprecedented levels of efficiency and precision across all phases of construction , spanning from initial design and documentation to on-site implementation and ongoing management . This departure from traditional practices represents a digital metamorphosis , harnessing cuttingedge technology to enrich collaboration , enhance decision-making processes , and streamline construction workflows . In stark contrast to conventional techniques such as 2D drawings and fragmented data management , BIM stands as a comprehensive 3D modelling paradigm .
