CAD drawings are used during Level 0, but there is no sharing of the generated information models. Softwares like Aconex or Viewpoint can be used as the CDE. In a few words, BIM Level 1 is focusing on the transition from CAD to 2D and 3D pieces of information. To the contrary, everyone is free to use a distinct CAD model.

Construction communication challenges often arise as preferred technologies (BIM, IPD, CAD) often leave non-techie types out of the conversation loop. Everyone in construction operations is visual and depends upon drawings, plans and models to convey ideas. Remember the PDF? The PDF standard hasn’t left the construction industry.
