Building information modeling, or BIM, is a fairly mature process for designing and building today. Unlike a few years ago, one does not need to be convinced of the efficacy of the process. The conversation has transitioned from the ideological and philosophical realm to critical reflections on the technical implementation of the process. While the available technical software solutions are dominated by the software giants of the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry, I was surprised to find a flourishing community of users in a niche market with no-nonsense, purpose-built tools that seem to get the job done.

This review is a gist of my first impressions of the * application. I should note at this point that is just one product in a suite of products catering to homeowners, designers, builders and material suppliers in the residential and light commercial market. Since all the products of the suite are part of the continuum of the design-build process, I would be remiss if I didn’t present my thoughts on in relation to the other products.

Conceptual Framework The success of any BIM application within the AEC industry is measured by its ability to work with a plethora of applications and file formats. Proekt doma na 2 semji s otdeljnimi vhodami. The developer’s response to this unspoken challenge is just as vital for the success of the application’s adoption as is its technical prowess. For an application belonging to the there is one more challenge: catering to homeowners, designers, contractors and vendors — people with varying levels of technical skill.
The application needs to be pliable enough to accept inputs from all team members, while maintaining the continuity of information flow in what is still a very traditional industry. Figure 2: A simplified depiction of the Envisioneer Building Essentials workflow. Consequently, is a study in compromises — most of them successful. Would mostly fall into the category of a BIM authoring tool. The application is built on the premise that one already has a set of building parts (elements). The out-of-the-box application does contain an exhaustive catalog along with links to manufacturers for manufacturer-specific elements.
In order to assemble an element, one simply has to select the appropriate tool. The user can choose from a menu of relevant elements, neatly organized into categories. From here, it is a matter of placing the element using drafting aids such as Ortho and Snap in a manner similar to the technique used in most CAD programs. The ease with which the model is assembled is only a little more complicated than a first-person video game such as Minecraft. I Elements within buildings encapsulate geometric parameters, configuration details, rendering attributes, costs, vendor specifications and quantity attributes. The element property even has the ability to store multiple hyperlinks and attach sound clips. The act of consolidating all of this information in the form of a building model allows the user to retrieve not only shopping lists for various building materials by material categories or other abstract parameters, but also use the attached geometry for visual, structural and energy simulation.
