    Study Notes

    Building Information Modelling (BIM)

    • A process of creating and managing 3D building data during development.
    • A complex multiphase process that brings together various team members and their input.
    • Allows for collaboration and visualization of building components during the design process.
    • Aims to achieve significant savings by facilitating changes and modifications in early design stages.
    • Offers a reliable digital representation of the building, enabling informed decisions throughout its lifecycle.
    • Utilizes data related to geometry, space, light, geographic information, quantities and properties of building components.
    • Plays a vital role in the construction and facility operation processes.

    Need for BIM

    • Facilitates concurrent work on most building lifecycle aspects, allowing for improved efficiency.
    • Allows for a shift from traditional architectural phases towards more streamlined data sharing.
    • Integrates actual construction pieces and parts into the modeling process for greater accuracy and efficiency.
    • Emphasizes the importance of senior management support, cooperative work, and conflict resolution.
    • Calls for strategies to reduce resistance to adopting new technologies.

    Australia's BIM Adoption

    • The government's role in BIM adoption is critical, through policy, funding, and demonstrator projects.
    • Emphasizes the need for improvement in Information Technology (IT) infrastructure, computer hardware, and software.
    • Focuses on training and knowledge acquisition related to BIM, including collaborations with external experts.

    Nigeria's BIM Adoption

    • Highlighting the importance of increasing BIM knowledge and expanding research in this area.
    • Encourages adequate senior management support for BIM implementation.
    • Emphasizes the need for providing adequate training and educational facilities.
    • Pushes for government obligation in using BIM for projects.
