Description
Book SynopsisThis report has been written with the specific aim of opening up the subject presented by the Secretary of State to consider the interaction between engineering, the environment, economics and politics.
Trade ReviewThis third edition has been brought up to date with current guidance and statistics which indicates the uptake of BIM in the UK and worldwide.
As an Engineer and Project Manager I found this book had compelling arguments encouraging the use of BIM. The potential of BIM is vast; projects can become safer, efficient and more sustainable.
The book takes the reader on a journey through every aspect of planning and implementation. Much of the guidance on technology, effective communication and collaboration is transferable to all projects.
I would recommend this book to those new to BIM as it outlines the advantages of BIM and clearly explains every stage of the process. Existing BIM users will also benefit having this book for reference and consideration of current legal complexities and technological limits.
