How Concrete Contractors are benefited from BIM?

Image
Concrete is one of the most popular building materials. It is often used by the property owners in residential and commercial constructions for the ease of access, high durability, minimal maintenance, withstanding to high weather conditions and fire-safety. In order to add value to construction and reduce construction cost, concrete contractors are increasingly depending on BIM. The virtual construction of 3D BIM Models for the concrete trades helps the contractors in various construction projects such as retail chains, commercial, healthcare, schools, dams, bridges and dams.  Let’s now take a look at the BIM Services through which the Concrete Contractors get benefitted? 1.        Model Creation of Cast in Place, Pre-Cast & Reinforcement – Constructible Parametric BIM Model provides component oriented design and planning for concrete 2.        Analysis of Constructability – Virtual project construction enables review of construction plan & specifications, s

Contractors Managing Fire Protection Systems Better with BIM
