  2. What is a Building Information Model (BIM)?

  3. Building Information Model • Physical and functional characteristics of a building (data) in digital format • … a shared knowledge source or database of intelligent information about a facility • … stays with the building forever and is enhanced over time • … can be seamlessly maintained and used by all Adapted from ICC SMARTcode presentation
