BIM (Building Information Modelling) is a digital technology that allows architects, engineers, and contractors to create a digital replica of a building or infrastructure project. Here are some recent news and updates related to BIM:

  1. BIM adoption on the rise: According to a recent survey by the National Institute of Building Sciences, 75% of architects and engineers in the United States are using BIM, up from 45% in 2015.
  2. New BIM standards released: The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has released new standards for BIM, including ISO 19650-1:2020, which provides guidelines for the use of BIM in the construction industry.
  3. BIM for infrastructure projects: The UK's Highways England has announced plans to use BIM for its major infrastructure projects, including the £1.5 billion A14 Cambridge to Huntingdon improvement scheme.
  4. BIM for sustainable buildings: A new study by the University of Cambridge has found that BIM can help reduce the environmental impact of buildings by up to 20%.
  5. BIM for facility management: A recent report by ResearchAndMarkets.com predicts that the global BIM for facility management market will grow from $1.4 billion in 2020 to $3.5 billion by 2025.
  6. BIM for construction planning: A new software tool called "BIM for Construction Planning" has been launched by the UK's Construction Industry Council, which aims to help contractors and clients plan and manage construction projects more effectively.
  7. BIM for energy efficiency: A recent study by the University of California, Berkeley has found that BIM can help reduce energy consumption in buildings by up to 15%.
  8. BIM for disaster response: The US Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has announced plans to use BIM to improve disaster response and recovery efforts, including the creation of 3D models of affected areas.
  9. BIM for urban planning: A new study by the University of Toronto has found that BIM can help urban planners create more sustainable and resilient cities by incorporating data on climate change, population growth, and infrastructure needs.
  10. BIM for education: A recent report by the National Institute of Building Sciences has found that BIM can help improve education and training in the construction industry by providing a more immersive and interactive learning experience.

These are just a few examples of the many recent news and updates related to BIM. As the technology continues to evolve, we can expect to see even more innovative applications of BIM in the construction industry.
