Bouygues team launches BIM guide
Four construction businesses have teamed up to develop a guide to verification processes in building information modelling (BIM).
The work by the four - Bureau Veritas, Setec Bâtiment, Agence Coste Architectures and Bouygues Construction – is intended to enable technical inspectors to give their assessment and for principal contractors to sign off directly on the digital model.
The four partners are working alongside MediaConstruct (buildingSMART), a French developer of openBIM standards. The goal has been to set up a dedicated task force to provide the processes for assessment and approvals using BIM.
The four are working on new BIM processes that introduce the key development of enabling technical inspectors and health & security coordinators to issue their assessment on buildings and structures directly on the basis of the digital model. It will also allow principal contractors to sign off directly on the same digital model.
