How BIM Will Impact your Future Infrastructure Projects

by InEight | Sep 10, 2021

Among the top items construction companies plan to invest in within the next five years is building information modeling (BIM) processes and technologies. This is because they acknowledge BIM is helping and will help represent the future of their...

Enhancing Asset Management with Today’s Best 3D Common Data Environment

As capital projects become more complex, we know that managing these costly assets means bringing crucial data — and people — together in new and better ways. Doing so increases accuracy and heightens collaboration. And, by collecting data throughout the construction execution phase, owners can even get real-time insight into the status of their projects. […]

Why 3D Model Visualizations Are So Important for Capital Projects

We have all heard the expression “a picture is worth a thousand words.” Because of its truth, it’s one of the many reasons why the visual nature of a 3D project model can bring clear and precise information to the forefront for all stakeholders. Now you may be thinking, “Wait a minute, Dale. I cannot […]

The What and Why of Hard and Soft Clash Detection

Clash detection has come a long way. Long before 3D models were a thing, we were identifying design issues by executing a manual check of design drawings. Though this manual process was satisfactory, it was not nearly as effective as today’s advanced 3D software where you can pull all of your disciplines into one model, […]

Leveraging the Real-Time Value of Building Information Modeling (BIM) Technology

Even before the first crews arrive at the jobsite, a good deal of meticulous planning has already gone into each multifaceted capital project to ensure it doesn’t go over budget, fall behind schedule or venture out of scope. As with any construction project, though, things often change as new information becomes available or […]

How to Use Intelligent 3D Models During Construction

What’s an intelligent model? A simple definition might be the geometry, shapes, 3D faces and vertices that make up the spatial definition of things we’re building linked to information such as that contained in databases, documents, photos and checklists. By that definition, we certainly already have intelligent models. So why then does it seem like […]
