BIM & Beam

AUGUST 1, 2018

This is the third blog post in a series that discusses the advantages of working on concrete projects in a BIM process for structural engineers. Segmentation is dictated by engineering, architectural, or fabrication requirements, and its reinforcement is determined by the structural engineer.

One of the 2 best model coordinators we ever had, he now calls himself a FIM, for Fabrication Information Manager. It was about the Fale Pasifica (see link) and the project was explained by 3 parties involved, the architect, the structural engineers’ team and the representative of the manufacturer of the main structure.

Plans are like a set of drawings or two-dimensional diagrams that are used to narrate a place or object or to communicate building or fabrication instructions which are drawn or printed on paper and can take the form of a digital file. and many more.

With that, window and exterior door placement is especially critical, as an incorrect rough opening means calling a concrete cutter to make it bigger (expensive) and also may require the services of a structural engineer depending on where the cut or cuts need to be made within the block wall (also an additional cost).
