BUILDING INFORMATION MODELING (BIM)

BIM is a process supported by various technologies to create multi-dimensional representations of physical and functional characteristics of buildings. The different technologies Burke uses allows the team to run clash detections, model 3 dimensional spaces and visualize what the project will look like through a 360-degree visual of the space. Using these tools and technologies gives Burke the ability to coordinate projects earlier and mitigate and reduce construction requests for information and change orders. A few tools that the Burke team uses are:

• Navisworks Manage
• Revit
• Sketchup
• Google Cardboard
• Adobe After Effects
