Why BIM Needs Digital Twins
7
BIM, on its own, is an immensely powerful tool. Architects, fabricators, structural
engineers, and more depend on this technology to visualize building components and
share project information. However, when buttressed by an IoT framework, BIM takes
on a whole new level of utility.
This is no big secret — a connected jobsite is an efficient jobsite. Supported by a
robust IoT ecosystem, BIM becomes a project-wide information delivery tool that can
help uncover new efficiencies. From project bidding to building, when 3D models are
elevated to digital twins, BIM can convey a diversity of details that all construction
phases need to get the job done.
