Implementing New 3d Technology Tools

Foundation of IT in a place is very crucial for most business. Organizations can use IT resource to create innovative and strategic process that helps business to reach beyond the status quo. Organization without new technologies resources can lose momentum and fall behind in competition. On the other hand, organizations with effective and updated technologies remain competent and superior; get competitive advantage thus acquire and maintain their big market share.

In his paper, the author explains us how the technology advancement is taking place, how 2D modelling started initially, how it led to 3D modelling and now how building information modelling techniques are being linked to 3D modelling. BIM is not just about modelling, but it also includes project planning, design and construction. He clearly explains what BIM is in the form of a flow chart. Where he says that B in BIM stands for Residential, commercial, healthcare, institutional, sports and entertainment, I in BIM stands for Spatial, element, systems, quantities, schedule, operations and M in BIM stands for site, architectural, structural, MEP systems, sustainability and management. This all phases of the program are a continuous chain where programming, design, pre construction, construction, operations, and demolition are done. This research also supports that the concept of building information modelling is not only useful for the building’s geometric modelling, but also it can assist in the management of construction projects. In this research, the author has collected information from 35 construction projects that have already utilized BIM. The most common result that was observed was the cost reduction. For some people, BIM is a software application, where as for others, it is a process for designing and documenting

This concept could be widely used in the construction industry to increase productivity, and also to enhance organization amongst partakers involved. If there were professionals trained in investigating and scrutinizing various actions employed while a construction project is underway, they could easily identify where there is scope of improvement, and also provide suggestions to improve its

(Sivaprasad & JangaJe, 2012): With the introduction of Information Technology in the business, every organization that comprises IT has started to take benefits of this technology. This is done by attaining the advantage over other competitors in the market, by providing new features to the customers after incorporating technology at the operational side specially, increasing the operational speed and reducing the probability for any error in operations. (Wen, 2012): IT also assists higher management in the process of decision making.

With the rapid advance in technology, the internet continues to change the landscape of our personal and professional lives. Right now the civil engineering field is a mix of traditional and cutting edge. Much like the retiring baby boomers who have decades of experience;

The goal fo architectural and engineered construction drawings is to organize, clarify, and effectively convey an enormous amount of detailed information in order to describe how a complicated building, such as a medical clinic or net-zero house must be built. Andrew's construction drawings have a quality of sophistication that demonstrates his genuine understanding of the complex codes and project criteria. It is important to note, on all of the projects Andrew has been involved in, I have never had a change order; this is undoubetly due to the consistant high quality of his work. I have no doubt that his concetrated attention to detail will be a critical asset in his future career.

Before the beginning of the 19th century, building structures were only thought of as assembled constructs. Where the design and aesthetic of them were dictated by the utilization and boundary conditions. Towards the start of the 19th century, the knowledge and understanding of engineers changed due to the establishment of technical colleges around the world. "When science found its way into the building practice, there was a shift initiated that, besides some other technical innovations, also brought a whole new view of structures and how they were developed" (Rinke and Kotnik 2010). A more science-based view on the structural aspects of truss design marks the transition from a craftsmanship-orientated construction to a theory-oriented construction. This made the design of trusses and all structures more rational, systematic and highly efficient.

Many organizations are working with large amounts of data and important information that can be detrimental to the survival of their business, and organizations typically rely on information systems to manage and carry out their operations. Information systems can be described as an integrated set of components used for storing, collecting and processing data for providing information, digital products and knowledge (IMGI, 2006). For this paper, the strategic analysis decisions along with what we may need to watch out for pertaining URL for the IT field is discussed, along with the impact that these decisions will have on the company. Furthermore, the potential changes in IT related to innovation and organizational process is also reviewed,

The design and construction of buildings can be a complicated business involving different professions, contractors, sub-contractors and operatives. This type of work is varied and employs many construction personnel with different roles and responsibilities, working together to complete a project in as successful way- on time, on budget and to the right specification. A large project would involve a great number of different activities:

As it has been evident in the 21st century, almost all companies at the global level are utilizing Information technology in their attempt to achieve the desired productivity. It is however worth noting that manufacturing, processing, assembly as well as service industries and companies have sought to utilize IT without emphasis on the specific achievements. In this context, it has come to the notice of many critics that entrepreneurs are utilizing IT just for purpose of achieving high profits and without paying key attention to the strategic importance of the same. As Carr argues, the power and the ubiquity of IT has increased prominently but this system is no longer offering the desired strategic advantage.

Information Technology (IT) is a foundation for conducting business today. It plays a critical role in increasing productivity of firms and entire nation. It is proven that firms who invested in IT have experienced continued growth in productivity and efficiency. Many companies' survival and even existence without use of IT is unimaginable. IT has become the largest component of capital investment for companies in the United States and many other countries.

The section I read covered the history of the Industrial Revolution and its impact on the building process from the 18th century to the 19th century. Beginning in the 18th century and throughout the 19th century, new machinery, and industrially fabricated materials began to appear on construction sites. Entering the 20th century there was a real attempt to adopt the industrial manufacturing processes from the previous centuries, due to a high demand for housing and construction during the post war period. It wasn’t until this time mass production of materials and machinery altered the building process which led us in a direction of robotics in architecture. With the increasing interest of time and cost saving, and increasing population of cities, by the end of the 20th century distinct change had occurred in the design process- resulting in new technology development to keep up with the transforming society. Looking at the history of the industrial revolutions impact on architecture I can understand the consistent pursuit on innovation and the demand to improve the building process, and what architecture has become today- the introduction of robotics in my opinion, is much needed. Without the constant evolvement of previous technology the modern world we live in today wouldn’t exist but because of the great adaption to society, building has entered a realm where human

In the present scenario, BIM acts as an important key tool for growth in Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry globally. As per Mc Graw Hill construction Report (2012), the percentage of BIM adoption in the United States of America (USA) is been gradually expanded from 49% in 2009 to over 71% in 2012. And by United Kingdom Government in 2011, BIM is mandated in Government Projects to reduce delays of projects, carbon level, and cost overruns. And also in Singapore Government provides funds for adopting BIM and to increase its usage among AEC industry (Kushwaha and Adhikari, 2016)- P526. And Even the Global Construction sector output will be augmented from US$ 7.7 to US$ 25 Trillion by 2025. And also, the growth is expected to increase from 35% to over 55% by 2020. But, In contrast of it, Indian counterparts are not tapping the true potential of BIM tools and using them for visualizations and walkthroughs (Autodesk, 2005) (Kushwaha

Quantity surveying, Design analysis (based on the type of materials), Wood and other fabrication works can be induced in one single model to reduce the number of complications thereby increasing visualization and also functionalization within construction project team.

Introduction Construction Management is not a new idea. The function of the Construction Manager is to work on behalf of the owner to complete a project within the plans and specifications provided. In the last few years construction practices have changed dramatically. Technology, materials, government bureaucracy, financing, design, and engineering have all advanced. With the complexity of the construction process increasing, owners demand accountability and accurate guidance during the entire planning and construction process. The importance of project management to construction derives from the nature of how the industry’s business activities are conducted. Project managers in construction are responsible for the overall success of
