Building Information Modeling Specialist or Coordinator. Building information Modeling (BIM) uses the computer to create models of buildings.These models are used to design and construct a new or renovated project. This workflow benefits for a successful and more profitable project.On the design team, the Architects and Engineers will create the design of the project using approved software. They would do coordination of all architectural designs and mechanical systems. This can include architectural design, structural systems, mechanical systems, electrical systems, plumbing systems, fire protection systems, fire alarm systems and telecommunication system. All of these models will be made at a detail level as outlined in the AIA (American Institute of Architects) documents. The coordination of these systems is analyzed more completely than the older 2 dimensional format with paper documents.On the construction side, the general contractor has a team of people to construct the project. In the contract, the GC is required to hand off an as built model upon completion of the project. In order to have an accurate model of what is actually constructed there needs to be BIM modelers from each sub-contractor to record the work and create a model. There are circumstances that may require the construction BIM modelers to reevaluate a layout made from the design team to make the building system work. Conflicting layouts are resolved prior to construction.I got involved with this workflow 20 years ago. I saw the value that this had. My experience had made me successful.
