Catalog description

This course introduces students to the application of Building Information Modeling (BIM), both as a product and a process. BIM is a new approach to the built environment as a building project delivery platform in which digital representation of a building process is used to facilitate the exchange and interoperability of information. This course introduces students to the various benefits of improved design quality, reduction in design errors, improved field productivity, reduction in conflicts, and their associated changes as it relates to manufacturing cost and time.
