About this title

Synopsis

Understand the latest advances in BIM with this fully updated guide

Building Information Modeling (BIM) has become an increasingly central component of architecture and the building trades. Modern BIM software has moved beyond the simple 2D and 3D modeling tools of the past to incorporate simulation, analysis, project management, and more. BIM Handbook: A Guide to Building Information Modeling for Owners, Designers, Engineers, Contractors, and Facility Managers has long served as the essential introduction to this subject and its ever-expanding applications. Now fully updated to reflect the increasing standardization of BIM practices and its cutting-edge industry frameworks, the latest edition of this key text remains the fundamental tool for understanding the backbone of innovation in construction technology.

Readers of the fourth edition of BIM Handbook will also find:

• Expanded treatment of the owner’s perspective in BIM and BIM integration
• Detailed discussion of new industry-specific frameworks such as ISO 19650
• Exploration of the relationship between BIM and digital twins for construction, operations, and maintenance

BIM Handbook is ideal for any professionals in the building trades, including owners and operators of buildings, architects, engineers, contractors, fabricators, developers of BIM software, and more.
