Problems Affecting The Adoption of 3D BIM Modeling

Issues, including cost overruns and time, material waste, and inefficiency of the process have hampered the architectural industry, engineering and construction (AEC) worldwide. Although the reasons for this may be different from project to project, lack of interdisciplinary coordination between designers services, construction engineers and entrepreneurs is the most common of all. Given these unfavorable results of the project, there is significant pressure by governments, especially in developed countries, accelerate or to mandate the adoption of 3D BIM modeling at different levels for projects funded by the government .


Although parametric modeling tools that BIM technology is increasingly used for private construction projects government projects are also seeing the benefits many companies employing potential ACS who have already made the transition to the integrated use of Revit 3D model information for the design and construction stages. While moving from the design process based on traditional CAD to modern workflow enabled BIM is essential to eliminate the design clashes / coordination and maximize the effectiveness of the design, there are inhibitions and key concerns for what is a paradigm shift for the industry.

A common concern is the training of technical CAD, who are familiar with the drawing tools like AutoCAD and BIM and interference detection applications such as Autodesk Revit and Navisworks.

The greatest obstacle to implementing BIM is the perception among some groups that the ongoing projects in the BIM transition period, suffer. As the adoption of BIM is more than the formation of the software, which requires a total change in the form of a construction project is conceptualized, designed, constructed and maintained. Although traditional design methods necessary for CAD Managers with a CAD technician team, modern designs based on BIM require BIM managers to liaise with representatives of specific disciplines to map the level of detail (LOD) BIM or phases required by customer, job sharing protocols / processes, and to assess compliance with standards for interoperability and information exchange.

In addition, there is a widespread view among the ECB brotherhood that while adopting a 3D BIM modeling wholly to the life cycle of a building entails costs, time and performance of energy efficiency, considerable effort goes into the preparation detailed content personalized with the customer's specifications. BIM requirement of approval also requires a level of interaction throughout the design and procurement teams is unusual and has certainly been accelerated by the use of BIM practice. Clearly define the scope of BIM and requirements of the parties is already becoming a challenge, especially for the MEP industry where designers and commercial contractors are traditionally treated individual design and detailed design. The overlap in the design and detailed design becomes the kind of challenge that designers MEP trades and MEP are used to obtain the resolution in the context of the adoption of BIM.

Collectively, these problems are a challenge and sometimes cause seizure involved to take BIM project, something that we see will change with the continued demand for intelligent building design.
