Introduction to building information modelling (BIM) software and virtual & augmented reality.
Building information modelling software, or BIM, gives teams a collaborative platform to improve productivity, save costs and streamline work processes.
Certain countries, like the UK, have mandated BIM software for all government construction projects.
BIM software can help with compliance regulations, by providing accurate information for permit applications, and enabling plan reviews, as well as remote progress walkthroughs and inspections, all using the same 3D model.
By providing a realistic and holistic view of a project, BIM models can also help with identifying mistakes or making changes to designs before construction is underway, saving on costly reworkings.
Building information modelling software, in conjunction with Virtual reality, can improve understanding of complex projects.
Virtual reality (VR) software is used to create immersive 3D environments useful for training or product prototyping.
In the design process, VR gives teams, contractors and clients the opportunity to walk through plans and see a high-fidelity concept of what the project will look like.
There are many options to explore when considering adopting building information modelling software and VR technology.
BIM Hollowview and Microsoft have developed ‘Revit Holoview’, a software that brings 3D Autodesk Revit models to life, using the latest in mixed reality technology and the Hololens wearable smart glasses.
Other software tools available to help meet your construction needs, include cloud-based solutions to facilitate project delivery from early-stage design through to construction.
Vendors to consider include Redcrater.co.nz, Microsoft HoloLens, Autodesk Construction Cloud, InEight, ProCore, Urbest, AbstractBIM, Revit, Inventor, ActCAD, Oracle Aconex, or ArchiCad.
A software analysis tool like Capterra.co.nz can also provide you with valuable insights into how users rate different products.
