    Using Building Information Modeling (BIM) to enhance Work Packaging for Piping

    Using Building Information Modeling (BIM) to enhance Work Packaging for Piping

    One of the advantages offered by Building Information Modeling (BIM) to the engineering and construction industry is the capability to virtually plan and build a project before actual execution of work. BIM provides AWP practitioners with a completed model of final deliverables, offering visual foresight of access, laydown, crane staging, and various other construction sequencing challenges, enabling the formation of a more robust execution plan. BIM models can be used to sto
