BIM

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is much more than a 3D design. BIM is way of working, managing information in a team environment, enabling everyone to understand a building through the use of a digital model, which holds all the information needed to design, construct and maintain that building.

 

KWH Engineering is dedicated to using BIM to best serve our clients. Some examples of our implementations include:

  • MEP Modeling using Autodesk Revit and ArchiCAD
  • Cloud Modeling
  • Clash Detection
  • Material Take-Offs
