An Integrated What-If EngineOne of the things that makes building information modeling so much more than just 3D is the connection to a database. Mining the data can help us to study the impact of project decisions in a more predictive way than gut feel and experience alone. Better informed early decisions lead to less downstream changes and therefore less change orders, value engineering, and rework on the part of architects, engineers, and builders alike. The Green Product Platform for BIMBuilding green needs to get easier. From both an environmental and technological perspective, the building industry has made incredible strides forward, but we’re not there yet. Ratings systems like LEED, CHPS and others that require specific metrics from products have set the bar for responsible building. And while BIM sets the standard for how we’ll work tomorrow, simplifying the documentation process that proves we’ve done the right thing needs to be integrated into that process.
