z 2020 was a year of compulsive slow-paced life and even slower construction processes. The need for innovation and better technology has only grown hence. As we continue towards completing another year post the year of the global pandemic, there are both challenges and lessons learned. To begin with, Labor shortage and rising construction costs are on top of the platter of persistent challenges, to say the least. Let us have a closer look at the major trends that are believed to dominate the construction industry in the coming years.   1. Construction Management Software The construction industry has infamously been slow to leap into technology; however, these industry trends shall continue to persist. The Construction Management Software segment is increasingly becoming more advanced and easier to integrate with the on-site tasks. Many project management solutions are now being employed to improve the efficiency of operations and build an enhanced business reputation. COVID-19 did

What Are “As-Built” Drawings in Construction

Image
  As-built drawings are a fundamental aspect of each construction project. The fundamental motivation behind the as-built drawing serves is to replicate how the contractor built the project and identify what changes were made throughout the course of constructing the project. The last arrangements of as-built drawings hold significant data, for example, shop drawing changes, plan changes, field changes, affirmed and objected changes during development, and any minor or significant alteration to the last coming about the undertaking. At some random point in the span of the task, there ought to be a modern adaptation of the as-built drawings accessible for reference. What is an "as-built" drawing?  By definition, an as-built drawing is a modified arrangement of drawings put together by a temporary endless supply of a construction project. as-built drawings show the dimensions, geometry, and location of all components of the project. These 2D floor designs normally incorporate s

BIM - The Future of the Construction Industry

BIM is talked about a couple of lots within the building industry, but what's it used for and who should use it? Some say BIM may be a sort of software. Some say BIM is that the 3D model of buildings. Others say BIM could be a process that BIM is nothing quite an organized collection of all building data. BIM is all of the above and more. When it involves BIM, everything begins with a 3D digital building model. However, this model is quite just simple geometry and interesting textures added to that for visualization. a real BIM model consists of the virtual equivalents of the particular building sections that won't create a building. These intelligent elements are the digital prototype of the physical building elements like walls, columns, windows, doors, stairs, etc. that allow us to simulate the building and understand its behavior before the particular construction begins. WHAT CAN A BIM MODEL BE USEFUL FOR? 3D VISUALISATION The most basic use of a BIM model is for creating
