Unlike CAD Software, which uses software tools to generate digital 2D and/or 3D drawings,
BIM facilitates a new way of working: creating designs with intelligent objects.
Regardless of how many times the design changes—or who changes it—the data remains consistent, coordinated,
and more accurate across all stakeholders. Cross-functional project teams in the building and infrastructure
industries use these model-based designs as the basis for new, more efficient collaborative workflows
that give all stakeholders a clearer vision of the project and increase their ability to make more informed
decisions faster.
With BIM, the model is actually a complex database and the room is a database element that contains both geometric
information and nongraphic data. Drawings, views, schedules, and so on are ?live views of the underlying
building database. If designers change a model element, the BIM software automatically coordinates the change in all
views that display that element—including 2D views, such as drawings, and informational views, such as
schedules—because they are all views of the same underlying information.
