This introduction to 3D Modelling covers the role of the diciplines and how they interact around the Building information Model.

Architect use of 3D modelling, outputs to the BIM stream of processes.

An overview of engineering design in the 3D modelling process and its outputs relating to the Building Information Model (BIM).

Building services engineering covers mechanical, electrical and public health aspects of design and maintenance and largely affects the environmental impact of the building. This designed in 3D has a major impact on the Building Information Model.

The detailer takes the output of the architects and engineering design to create a detailed 3D model which becomes the operational document for steel fabrication and erection. This model is usually kept up to date to represent the 'as built' design.
