BIM for Architects and Engineers

Epochal transition in design practice
1. Construction-level building models
  1. Analysis/simulation/cost applications
    1. Enhancing visualization/ communication
  2. Leon Battista Alberti
    1. distinguished architectural “design” from “construction” by proposing that the essence of design lay in the thought processes associated with conveying lines on paper.
2. Conceptual design
3. The integration of engineering services.
4. Construction-level modeling
Outline of the architeural services
