Building Information Modeling (BIM) Roadmap: Supplement 2 - BIM Implementation Plan for Military Construction Projects, Bentley Platform

Abstract

Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology provides the communities of practice in facility planning, architecture, engineering, construction, operations, and maintenance with powerful tools to reduce building life-cycle costs, improve delivery time, and facilitate quality assurance. This report supplements the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) strategy and plan for implementing BIM previously documented in ERDC TR-06-10, Building Information Modeling (BIM): A Roadmap for Implementation To Support MILCON Transformation and Civil Works Projects within the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (October 2006). This report, Supplement 2 of ERDC TR-06-10, is intended for users of the Bentley platform who are working on BIM-related projects supervised by USACE. The text describes the Bentley workflow, and it highlights software capabilities and BIM project management practices that help the user make the most effective and efficient use of the Bentley platform.
