I've just returned from the BIM conference in Anaheim. Well... Building Information Modeling has hit its tipping point.
BIM has reached a 20% penetration. But most are still in the BIM 1.0 phase - 3D modeling, concept and design.
BIM 2.0 is still an early adopter application and should take off in 2008 as interoperability standards solidify. We will then reach a point where objects tied to data = budgeting, analysis and decision making as never before.
BIM 3.0 makes the revolution complete. BIM 3.0 promises complete virtual simulation and collaboration; from design, construction through life-cycle performance.
BIM exploits the shift from HTML to XML. What????
Sorry - this video will help you see the significance. Look for this tag line - "content is not longer tied to form." Information can be tied to any object or relationship within BIM. You might just call this intelligent design.
I watched the video three times before it sunk in. There's a lot going on but its worth watching.
