Building Information Modeling

Computer Applications

Project 1

This project involves the study of the current applications of Building Information Modeling (BIM) in Architecture, Engineering & Construction (AEC). By completing this project, I was exposed to the various current applications in the AEC industries, through an in-depth review of the literatures. The findings were presented in the following infographic.
