IMPORTANCE OF BIM IN CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY

Structural engineering, construction companies have a series of deficiencies that hinder their processes and interactions, decreasing their productivity, lacking collaborative and interconnected processes, not including current work methodologies such as building information modeling (BIM). BIM methodology seeks to integrate processes and professionals involved in engineering tasks by working on platforms with coordinated and intelligent 3D virtual models. BIM has great potential for structural engineering companies and solves their most salient problems. Characterized by the optimization of resources, flexibility, and adaptability, the methodology proposed for BIM implementation within Structural engineering, construction companies clearly and objectively identify the resources and expectations of the organizations, sets out the requirements necessary to develop the BIM methodology, and provides practical and technical recommendations for planning and monitoring the implementation. Over the past decade the fields of civil engineering, structural engineering, have increasingly used the building information modelling (BIM) approach in both professional practice and as the focus of research.
