BIM stands for Building Information Modeling. BIM or Building Information Modeling is today a hot topic in the building industry, amongst architects, engineers, contractors, project developers, manufacturers, building professionals…

Some BIM definitions speak about the digital representation of the building process, others refer to software, or to a collection of building data in a d-base.

The US National Building Information Model Standard Project Committee has the following definition: “Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a digital representation of physical and functional characteristics of a facility. A BIM is a shared knowledge resource for information about a facility forming a reliable basis for decisions during its life-cycle; defined as existing from earliest conception to demolition.”
