A BIM system is becoming one of the construction industry's most versatile and valuable tools. It is possible to incorporate underground construction into BIM to enhance its potential further.
FREMONT, CA: The latest advances in building information modeling (BIM) have enabled construction technology, particularly underground, to become more dynamic and capable than ever.
Working around buried structures and components is a challenge by nature. Still, by incorporating BIM, the process can be made much more efficient, safer, and clearer than its traditional counterpart.
Understanding underground structures: BIM construction technology allows underground structures to blend into their surroundings in a big-picture context. Adding below-surface items to BIM allows the project to be visualized and designed from top to bottom, from beginning to end. The underground components must integrate with the primary structure and adapt to its requirements. Incorporating them into the BIM ensures everything is considered. Buried water lines, among other things, are important to the building.
Less Invasive Construction: Excavation of trenches is a destructive process that disrupts the surrounding environment and the local community. Microtunnels are far less invasive than trenchless excavation. BIM makes these processes easier to implement.
The above-ground tools are useful for detecting buried structures. A detailed digital model can be created using that information for things like pipes and tunnels. Planning makes it possible to dig inconspicuously.
