The ever-increasing fast-paced development is accelerating the demand for BIM architects and BIM Engineers. BIM-buzz has become evident from its presence in every architecture and engineering resume.
The real question is whether BIM just serves as the selling point to land into higher paying jobs or is it really the need of the hour. Let’s find out!
Understanding the Breadth and Depth of BIM
Before we jump to conclusions related to the BIM career, let’s first understand the deeper meaning and value it holds.
BIM is the major revolution in terms of management, communication, and generating of data related to the AEC industry. Ditching the conventional 2D drafting methods, the novel approach is via BIM modeling to generate a virtual prototype of the building.
BIM is both broad and deep. It’s the amalgamation of building services, draftings, subjects, and methodologies on one platform. Through Revit architecture and various other platforms, Building information modeling accommodates vital information pertaining to the project.
Rich in detail and data-oriented models virtually highlight all the clash points and evaluate the efficiency to be taken on-site for smooth construction, operations, and maintenance of a building.
