Introduction Many construction companies have made sizable investments in building information modeling (BIM) and utilizing BIM databases for 3D content. Teams that use BIM processes are more likely to benefit from reduced project errors, streamlined communication, increased client satisfaction, and higher-quality projects. But if you aren't bringing your 3D content out of the computer and into the real world, you're limiting your ability to experience all of the benefits BIM provides. If you aren't using BIM data in the field, you're missing out on the opportunity to provide project stakeholders with: ý Enhanced 3D design review ý True coordination and collaboration ý More effective project planning and management Being able to clearly visualize project data in both the office and the field is a win for all project stakeholders. Visualization improves the design review process, enables better coordination and collaboration, and facilitates more effective project planning and management. Yet, many are downgrading BIM models into 2D documents just before actual construction takes place. In doing so, they're creating a distinct disadvantage.
