    Using bim in construction projects management

    TitleUsing bim in construction projects management
    Publication TypeCommunications in International Conferences
    Year of Publication2015
    AuthorsReis F., Couto J. P., Pimenta L., and Salgado P.
    Abstract

    The progressive technological advancement of tools, materials and construction techniques also caused the increase of the specialties that make up a building and hence its complexity, as result of the constant search for innovation, comfort and convenience for users. BIM is a response to the need to harmonize and coordinate the various tasks and specialties involved in a project, allowing to identify and correct interferences between the various projects on time without putting into question the deadlines, avoiding rework and extraordinary expenses with demolitions, repairs and corrections of errors derived from errors or omissions in designs and even erroneous readings of the projects, since it allows to check and interpret in real time in a 3D model, as will be the building and giving full freedom and information for reading the project, allowing even to plan and control the “Time” and “Cost” variables more effectively and of organized manner.
