BIM Q&A: How to Build a 3D BIM Information Model and Which Software to Use?

When selecting BIM modeling software for a project, the first step is to clearly define the application goals, followed by identifying the specific tasks required to create a satisfactory model.

BIM Q&A | How to create a BIM3D information model? What software is used for creating BIM3D information models?

1) Define Application Goals: For example, the BIM application for a particular project may focus on pipeline optimization prior to construction, managing cost, quality, and safety during construction, and addressing complex node disclosures.

2) Identify Specific Tasks:

① Conduct collision detection for mechanical and electrical pipelines to identify design issues, followed by pipeline layout optimization based on the collision results before construction begins.

② Use 3D models or construction simulation animations to showcase complex nodes, ensuring construction personnel fully understand the design intent and specific construction processes.

③ Implement dynamic resource management, allocate funds efficiently, and monitor costs in real time to achieve effective construction cost management. Additionally, enhance on-site quality and safety management by proactively identifying potential issues, monitoring progress in real time, and analyzing problems after they occur.

3) Selecting Project Modeling Software

Based on the tasks outlined above, the project will use Revit for mechanical and electrical pipeline collision detection. For dynamic management of resources and funds during later stages, Guanglian Da is the preferred software for engineering quantity calculation and accounting in the northern region. This company also uses Guanglian Da for bidding and pricing. Therefore, this project will utilize Guanglian Da civil engineering calculation software for model deduction and rule processing.

Considering that Revit’s reinforcement modeling is more complex compared to Guanglian Da’s steel bar calculation software, the project will handle reinforcement and steel bar calculations with Guanglian Da steel bar software. To optimize construction site layout, Guanglian BIM construction site layout software will be employed. Leveraging BIM’s visualization capabilities, the site layout can be reviewed in advance for feasibility, ensuring construction machinery meets requirements at different stages.

Moreover, this approach facilitates accurate machinery tracking within Guanglian BIM5D, enabling the development of an effective machinery entry and exit plan.
