The BIM modeling process and any Virtual Design Building approach that is incorporated into it can be used throughout the entire construction process as it has a seamless approach and can be applied at multiple stages of the project.
A number of companies in the construction industry, including architects and general contractors, are already using BIM modeling on a daily basis, although its use in the civil sector is not yet widespread. There is still a large amount of technology that is used to construct roads, bridges, and tunnels. A civil structure, for example, a bridge, is more complex and requires a great deal of analysis along with the validation of the design in order to function properly.
A BIM approach can help the stakeholders of a project plan, collaborate, and implement the overall construction of a project, no matter whether it is a brand new project or a renovation, or a reconstruction of an older bridge.
