STRATEGIC MODELING

For those who have adopted BIM, the use of this software has changed the way we do our work and in many ways for the better. But just as with anything that is new or different, has this technology not also allowed creation of new poor practices or allowed us to more quickly and, on a larger scale, perpetuate old poor practices? It is our observation that often additional effort is spent modeling minute details that have no relevance to bidding or construction just because it is possible to do so. Every tool requires skill to be used effectively, and the use of software is no different. Technology has brought about great improvements in the design and performance of tennis rackets, but tennis players understand that natural ability is still honed by practice and must be combined with a strategy to win tournaments. Design professionals must know how to wield the tools in their hands.

It is also important to understand who will be using the BIM and the drawings derived from it. You also need to know the limitations faced in construction, for example, the fact that the overall building layout for foundations and superstructure is often performed during inclement weather. Until the building is dried in, rain, snow, heat, and wind all have an effect on the work performed. As the project progresses, different trades build upon the work of other trades and must deal with issues of construction tolerance and imperfect work by others. This downstream effect has an impact on how we should look at documentation.
