Download as PPTX, PDF1 like1,202 views
The document discusses Building Information Modeling (BIM) and its significance in the electrical engineering field, highlighting its role in creating and managing construction project information throughout its lifecycle. It outlines the BIM process, the actors involved, and specifically details how electrical engineers can utilize BIM for efficient design and collaboration, while also introducing a specific tool, Elec Calc, which integrates electrical projects into the BIM process. The benefits of implementing BIM include improved design reliability, collaboration, risk reduction, productivity, communication, and overall project management.

- 5. 1. What is BIM BIM & Electrical Engineers The Building Information Model (BIM) is the hottest digital revolution within the building industry. It is the process for creating and managing information on a construction project during its whole lifecycle. BIM digital model implies a great interaction and interoperability. The BIM is a shared knowledge resource for information about a facility forming a reliable basis for decisions during its life- cycle, defined as existing from earliest conception to demolition.

BIM Actors BIM & Electrical Engineers Architects Engineers Manufacturers Contractors Building Owners BIM is used to produce the schematic architectural model & documentation The BIM architectural model is used for the engineering digital model & documentation BIM models of products are produced and distributed online via the BIM channels Time and cost are most efficiently managed thanks to BIM networked communication They can constantly check the project outcome and comment
- 8. 4. BIM & Electrical Engineers BIM & Electrical Engineers Electrical engineers can complete all aspects of electrical design including power and lighting, fire alarm, communications, security systems, and other building services in a single environment. Through BIM, electrical engineers will be able to detect clashes and avoid electrical conflicts due to contradictory information between documents and building systems.
