BIM allows for:
- Clash detection and coordination between designs to reduce errors.
- Simulation of designs before construction to improve quality.
- Sharing of information across disciplines and teams to improve communication and productivity.
However, BIM requires:
- Investment in new software and training which increases costs initially.
- Strict guidelines and standards to be followed for effective collaboration.
2D CAD is:
- Familiar to many in the industry so requires less training.
- Less expensive than transitioning to new BIM software.
But 2D CAD lacks:

What are the aims of BIM?
Faster and more economic delivery of projects with less
environmental impact
Create value in every stage of the process (Plan Design
Build Manage)
User analysis to optimise sustainability of the life cycle.
Visualise design ideas
Simulate multiple alternatives -Ability to simulate projects before
they are built (higher quality outcome)
Identify clashes
Communicate intent - Accurate documentation
Improve productivity - Savings in time and money with improved
coordination
