Why use BIM ?

CAD and GIS• Boundaries• 2D or 3D• Fragmented• Obscure Meaning

DOCUMENT / IMAGE

• Not usable

• Not re‐usable

BIM• “Mug”• Shapes and symbols• has Materials• has Capacity• kind of Equipment• touches “Table”

Sharing …

• When ?• now, • later, • again, • continuously

• With whom ?

• Yourself,

• Your colleagues

• Project partners and contractors

• Clients

• Regulators
