In any Building Information Modeling (BIM) workflow, models progress through different stages of development. Many begin as rough concepts but then evolve into detailed, data-rich representations used for design coordination, construction documentation, and facility management. But how do teams align on the specificity and precision appropriate to the phase?
It is the task of the architects and structural engineers in charge of renovating an old building to reconcile the preservation of historical character, safety, functionality and energy requirements. The use of BIM for renovation projects can ease such a complex operation.
