Building Information Modeling - BIM is an intelligent 3D model-based process that

gives architectural, engineering and construction professionals the insight and tools
to efficiently plan, design, construct and manage buildings and infrastructure. The
course addresses the rapidly evolving needs of the built environment sector with
respect to the emergence of BIM as a working practice. BIM manager plays a crucial
role in advising clients, internal and external stakeholders on the benefits of BIM,
and in implementing and managing the major BIM processes. This requires the
demonstration of a complete knowledge of the BIM process & the ability to create
the project environment in which BIM can realise its full potential. In this course,
learners will be guided through each of the major project stages, from the strategic
definition of the project right through to handover, operations, and end of use. At
each stage, the trainer will demonstrate how to balance technical requirements with
project management skills, so the students are confident in implementing BIM
Program Description methodology. The course covers the key skills and competencies required for
implementing BIM-Building Information Modelling to AECO-Architecture,
Engineering, Construction & Operation projects.

Objectives:

• To learn the concept of Building Information Modeling

• To understand the workflow followed in industry during creation of BIM 3D

model which includes building the discipline-based model and create the
federated models.

• To explain the process of creating the BIM model

• To comprehend the various emerging trends of BIM & concept of digital twin

• Students pursuing Diploma / UG / PG Programs in Civil, Mechanical,

Educational Electrical and other allied domains
Qualification • Faculties in the field of Civil, Mechanical, Electrical and other allied domains
• Working professionals in the above domains

Basic knowledge about isometric structures and Engineering Graphics fundamentals
