What is 5D BIM
Why use 5D BIM for your project
- Visualize the entire project during the pre-planning phase. 5D BIM is most valuable during the pre-planning phase when you have the ability to visualize the entire project from beginning to end and analyze how different design concepts impact your project as a whole.
- 5D BIM enables the contractor to better manage expectations. The contractor can analyze design, schedule and cost utilizing a visual model to determine the best plan forward to yield the best possible project outcome.
- Solve problems in the office. 5D BIM allows design concepts to be visualized, providing project participants a proactive approach to identify potential problems in the office long before their become an issue in the field.
- Simplify data reporting to improve understanding of your project scope. 5D BIM helps to clearly communicate complex project details by converting thousand-line Gantt charts into 3D models.
- Preventing project delays is invaluable. As problems become foreseeable, project delays and cost overruns are less likely to occur.
Visualize Your Project
BIM is achieved with the help of compatible software that adds layers to the 3D model. This helps resolve challenges as they come up in real-time, and to keep the project on track. The software is capable of modeling all construction components, as a whole or by individual pieces and parts, from start to finish.
