Features of the Organization of Construction with the Use of Technologies of Information Modeling

Abstract

Gradual universal transition to the technologies of building information modeling (BIM technology) became the reply to the need of taking into account huge volumes of information during designing, construction and maintenance of buildings and structures. The possibility of such transition is caused by the intensive development of information technologies and the emergence of the specialized software products aimed on the creation computer (i.e. information) model of a construction project, including all the information about it. The availability of the computer model of the construction project allows to organize the process of designing, construction and maintenance of the building in a new way. This article is devoted to the features of the implementation of BIM technologies in Russia. It is based on the results of the research on the experience of implementation of BIM in various countries, on the problems of implementation of technologies of information modeling in Russia, and also on the effect which the leading Russian organizations in the implementation of BIM field could obtain, namely, the substantial increase of efficiency of the organization of the construction process.
