Hello, Hi, Anthony Kamil here.  As part of my education initiative to educating the industry. I want to create a series of videos that would help and educate companies and individuals to the key elements in BIM Implementation. Please enjoy these videos, and don't forget to share, like, comment and subscribe to my youtube channel.  Together we can digitise the construction industry. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwyeZ336FsqtWk7y3IScJOjND5NTC4oJS www.agkdesign.co.uk www.instagram.com.agkcreativebim Please follow, on instagram, twitter and facebook. Thanks A.K AGK Creative BIM

The construction industry has traditionally been focused on the upfront capital costs of construction. Shifting this focus to better understand the whole-life cost of assets, where most money is proportionately spent, should make for better decisions upfront in terms of both cost and sustainability. This is where 6D BIM comes in.   Sometimes referred to as integrated BIM or  iBIM , 6D BIM involves the inclusion of information to support facilities management and operation to drive better business outcomes. This data might include information on the manufacturer of a component, its installation date, required maintenance and details of how the item should be configured and operated for optimal performance, energy performance, along with lifespan and decommissioning data.

The fifth dimension is taking simple 3d geometry and applying the cost element   Drawing on the components of the information model being able to extract accurate cost information is what's at the heart of 5D BIM.   Considerations might include capital costs (the costs of purchasing and installing a component), its associated running costs and the cost of renewal/replacement down the line. These calculations can be made on the basis of the data and associated information linked to particular components within the graphical model. This information allows cost managers to easily extrapolate the quantities of a given component on a project, applying rates to those quantities, thereby reaching an overall cost for the development.   The benefits of a costing approach linked to a model include the ability to easily see costs in 3D form, get notifications when changes are made, and the automatic counting of components/systems attached to a project. However, it's n...

They always ask. What is construction sequencing? what is 4D? Here is your answer. 4D BIM adds an extra dimension of information to a project information model in the form of scheduling data. This data is added to components which will build in detail as the project progresses. This information can be used to obtain accurate programme information and visualisations showing how your project will develop sequentially.   Time-related information for a particular element might include information on lead time, how long it takes to install/construct, the time needed to become operational/harden/cure, the sequence in which components should be installed, and dependencies on other areas of the project.

A further understanding to 2D and 3D BIM.  Firstly, we have started off with 2d.     2D, as we know it on paper. That is the X,Y axis. This hand drawing, this is auto cad.    The third dimension 3D, Is the addition of adding the Z axis.    3D BIM is perhaps the BIM we are most familiar with - the process of creating graphical and non-graphical information and sharing this information in a Common Data Environment (CDE).   As the project lifecycle progresses this information becomes ever more rich in detail until the point at which the project data is handed over to a client at completion.   

The confusion is real. The other day I had a customer come and enquire about Level 5 BIM?? I mean really.. I said what do mean about Level 5 BIM, he said I want costing.. So I thought i'd create a video about the different dimensions of BIM
