VDC & Building Information Modelling (BIM)
VDC & Building Information Modelling (BIM)
Virtual Design and Construction (VDC):
- Broader Scope:
VDC goes beyond just creating digital models; it’s a methodology that integrates BIM with other technologies and processes.
- Project Planning:
VDC is focused on planning the best approach to deliver a construction project, including scheduling, cost, and risk management.
- Digital Simulation:
VDC allows for digital simulation and analysis of various scenarios, helping to identify potential issues and optimize the project.
- Increased Efficiency:
By using VDC, construction projects can be made more efficient, reducing delivery time and lowering construction costs.
- Collaboration:
VDC enhances collaboration among stakeholders by providing a shared platform for information and communication.
- Benefits of VDC:
- Reduced construction time
- Lowered construction costs
- Improved collaboration
- Enhanced decision-making
- Increased project efficiency
Building Information Modeling (BIM)
- Digital Representation:
BIM creates a digital representation of a building’s physical and functional characteristics, encompassing the entire building lifecycle.
- Shared Knowledge Resource:
It serves as a shared knowledge base for information about a facility, forming a reliable basis for decision-making.
- 3D Modeling:
BIM involves creating 3D models of the building using specialized software.
- Data Integration:
BIM integrates various project data, including materials, costs, and scheduling information.
- Collaboration:
BIM facilitates better collaboration and communication among project stakeholders.
