Make BIM Advantage YOUR Advantage
BIM Advantage is a pioneer in delivering value to structural engineers. With 18 years of experience working with BIM (Building Information Management) and VDC (Virtual Design and Construction), we build bridges between design and production. Our BIM services alter and streamline production, saving our clients dozens of man hours on the site, as well as helping follow-on trades with shared elements. Through BIM Advantage, our clients become efficient and hyper-collaborative with developers and project partners.
Alleviate bottlenecks and prevent delays and challenges onsite through our advanced modeling and expertise in virtual design and construction.
Make BIM Advantage, Your Advantage.

What is BIM?Building Information Modeling (BIM) is the foundation of digital transformation in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry. BIM applies intelligent insights to the tangible aspects of a building. While a CAD design may show you the layout of a space you intend to remodel, BIM tells you which walls are load bearing, where shared elements are placed, and what materials are specified throughout the project.

How much money will I make or save with BIM?This can vary from contractor to contractor. However, studies have shown consistent savings across all construction activities, including estimation, planning, and (most of all) during production. When properly deployed, BIM acts as a central point of planning and communication for your project, both internally and externally.

How much does BIM cost for structural concrete?Costs of BIM drawings vary with trade and project size. Typically it equates to less than 10% of the cost of the project and will ultimately save far more in production and planning costs.
