BIM AWARENESS

What is BIM BIM for Whole Lifecycle Different Dimensions of BIM


BIM & 5D BIM

3-DIMENSIONAL MODEL
Visualization of project,
Interdisciplinary,
How do we define 5D BIM Quantities.
in comparison with other
dimensions?
ASSET MANAGEMENT PLANNING AND
As-build BIM model, SCHEDULING
It allows a cost manager to Operation and Construction timeline,
collaboratively manage and Maintenance Simulation of production,
management logistics of execution
control the project cost with
the project team with a 3D
model in a more efficient
manner and per the
standard method of
measuerment.

SUSTAINABILITY COST AND ESTIMATION


Energy management, Estimating expenses, cash
Climate impact assessment flow, material management
Why 5D BIM ?
5D BIM Digital Cost Estimation Solution
One Focus Integrated Digital Solution
Real time data collaboration, flexibility to the information exchange and cost data
management for informed decision making.

Seamless Team Collaboration


Connect all stakeholders and streamline work process, to support remote
collaboration and coordination.

Common Data Centre Management


Granting the access to the right people to the right project through the secured
common data centre.

Embedded Measurement Rule for Accurate QTO


Intelligently built-in local measurement rules for faster, smarter and accurate
quantity takeoff aid with 3D visualization & validation.

Smart Reporting
Generate insightful quantity and costing reports with present or custom-made
template easily.

CUBICOST – TIO PRODUCTIVITY
Let’s take a 50000 ㎡ Project as an example…

Productivity & Efficiency: Same workforce to accomplish more.

POTENTIAL TRANSITION OF QS POSITION
WAY FORWARD

The requirement/value for a QS for BIM takeoff: not about knowing the

calculation rules, or master of the BIM modeling method.

But to have the knowledge, ability, and experience to analysis the BIM

model for quantity takeoff

Short-term & Mid-term: Do the BIM quantity takeoff

In the long run: consider linking to BQ for cost estimation as well.
