Foreword -- Preface -- BIM handbook introduction -- BIM tools and parametric modeling -- Interoperability -- BIM for owners and facility managers -- BIM for architects and engineers -- BIM for contractors -- BIM for subcontractors and fabricators -- The future : building with BIM -- BIM case studies -- Glossary -- Bibliography -- Index.
Summary: "The BIM Handbook presents the technology and processes behind BIM and how architects, engineers, contractors and sub-contractors, construction and facility owners (AECO) can take advantage of the new technology and work process. Unlike CAD, BIM is a major paradigm shift in the documentation, work processes and exchange of project information. It facilitates collaboration and further automation, in both design and construction. AEC professionals need a handbook to guide them through the various BIM technologies and related processes. The collaborative nature of BIM requires professionals to view BIM from various industry perspectives and understand how BIM supports multiple project participants. The BIM Handbook reviews BIM processes and tools from multiple perspectives: the owner, architects and engineers, contractors, subcontractors and fabricators"--Summary: This treatment of building information modeling technology, tools and processes looks at how architects, engineers, contractors and sub-contractors, and construction and facility owners can take advantage of the new technologies.
