Architectural BIM

Architectural BIM: the architectural model for design, permit and construction stages, coordinated with the structural and MEP models.

The architectural model as the basis for drawings, quantities and coordination with the other discipline models.

What it is used for

  • Design, permit and construction-stage drawings from one model
  • Room and area schedules, self-contained units, lettable units
  • Basis for visualisation and tendering

When the design comes from outside

The design often sits with another practice. In that case we take on the modelling for the later service phases – from drawings, from an existing model, or from both.
