BIM Survey

Created by the Government for the Digital Built Britain Strategy, BIM involves the use of digital methods to collaboratively manage information and data across the entire life of built environment assets. BIM uses 3D models with attached data and information to connect and share information efficiently across the supply chain.

Building Information Modelling

Building Information Modelling (BIM) surveys are integral to the modern construction and architectural landscape, facilitating the creation of digital representations of physical and functional characteristics of places. These surveys underpin the BIM process by providing detailed information that feeds into a shared knowledge resource for information about a facility, forming a reliable basis for decisions throughout its life cycle, from initial planning through to demolition.

The benefits of BIM surveys are numerous, significantly enhancing project efficiency and collaboration. They enable precise pre-construction visualisations, improve coordination among stakeholders by providing a unified information resource, and reduce the risk of errors and discrepancies, thereby saving time and costs. Additionally, BIM surveys support sustainable building practices by allowing for more informed choices about materials and designs, ultimately contributing to the optimisation of the operation and maintenance of the building. This holistic approach to construction project management revolutionises how buildings, infrastructure, and utilities are planned, designed, built, and managed.

BIM Survey FAQs

Building Information Modelling (BIM) is a digital methodology that involves creating and managing comprehensive 3D models of physical and functional characteristics of a facility. These models serve as a shared knowledge resource, facilitating efficient decision-making throughout the asset’s lifecycle—from initial design and construction to operation and maintenance.

Surveys for BIM involve capturing precise spatial data of existing structures or sites using advanced surveying techniques like 3D laser scanning. This data is then used to create accurate 3D models that form the foundation of the BIM process, ensuring that all project stakeholders have access to reliable and up-to-date information.

These surveys provide accurate, real-world data essential for creating reliable BIM models. They enhance collaboration among project teams, reduce errors by ensuring designs are based on actual site conditions, and improve project efficiency by streamlining workflows and facilitating better decision-making.
