Architectural BIM Services and Design Development
Architectural BIM (Building Information Modelling) services help architects, engineers, and builders to create digital models of buildings, which can be used for planning, designing, and execution of construction projects.
Services offered by architectural BIM service providers include:
- 3D rendering and visualization
- Developing Revit architectural BIM models with specified LOD (Level of Detail)
- BIM quantity take-offs and constructability analysis
- Shop drawing preparation
- Design development and construction documentation
- 3D walkthroughs and clash detection
- Virtual information models and 4D simulation
Benefits of BIM for architects include:
- Time, cost, and labor savings
- Improved design flexibility and accuracy
- Better collaboration and communication among stakeholders
- Enhanced project visualization and clash detection
- Streamlined construction and project management
Architectural BIM services providers use software such as Revit, AutoCAD, BIM 360, Navisworks, and 3DS Max to deliver these services. Some companies also offer additional services like 3D laser scanning, point cloud to BIM, and renovation and remodeling services.
