Building Information Modeling (bim) Technique For Sustainable Design

Share:    

Building Information Modeling (BIM) process improves the structural engineers workflow

and can help structural engineer actively contribute to the sustainable design of a building. BIM is an integrated process that helps engineers to visualize projects critical physical and functional characteristics digitally - before it is constructed! Available BIM solutions in the market are based on coordinated and more reliable information generated with Revit and AutoCAD Civil 3D software.

By using BIM, structural engineers can:

# Visualize real-life appearance and performance of a structure or building

# Simulate and Analyze structural members

# Design projects from the earliest phases

# Manage Project documents more effectively and accurately

# Deliver project faster and with less impact on environment

BIM for structural engineers utilizes above approach for the whole structural engineering process. The structures virtual model can be used for collaboration with architects, electrical, mechanical, plumbing, civil engineers and other stake holders. This same 3D digital model can be integrated with design, analysis and construction documentation, and is utilized as the basis for digital design-to-fabrication planning and construction. Using Building Information Modeling (BIM), structural engineers can track material quantities and investigate various design options that eventually result in a more sustainable design.

At the heart of the structural engineering 3D Modeling process is the Revit Structure software. BIM and Revit Structure allow structural engineers to minimize waste and optimize the re-use of materials. The comprehensive & intelligent information model generated through a BIM process can also be used for analysis and simulation - helping structural engineers to make better informed decisions and optimize the building or structure for flexibility, future modifications and environment friendliness.

In near future we may see industry trends such as Building Modeling, Sustainable design and Design-to-fabrication methods continue drive the structural engineering market. As the market swifts in this direction, sustainability will become an integral part of the foundation for all successful projects. Each material in the building process will be selected for considering environmental factors and once the building life ends, all materials will be recycled.
