Can civil engineers switch over from CAD to BIM?

BIM offers an important role in the business progression of Civil Engineers. By integrating BIM in the design phase, the civil engineers can transform information into insight to revitalize designs and facilitate speeding up approvals which produce more efficient and durable infrastructures.

 

An authentic BIM collaborative environment brings great advantages to the civil engineers to advance any civil projects in a superior way and get better quality and enhance productivity on highway, rail, airport, and other infrastructure projects.

The civil engineers can obtain the following benefits:

 

• Superior project ROI
• Improved collaboration
• More truthful documentation
• Well-organized and successful project delivery
• Enhanced visualizations and strengthened communication
• Customer support and formation of customer relationship
• Precise project cost estimation
• Superior project performance measurements
• Get design better with BIM and BIM analysis
• Streamlined planning and design
• Strong control of project coordinates amid architect & engineer

These are just the short synopsis of civil engineers are benefitted through proper BIM integration. But the lists for probable benefits of BIM are big.
