 Pro & Cons
Advantages Disadvantages

Better planning and design: Incompatibility with partners:

-can visualize a completed building -not yet universally used among
-allows better planning and design that construction professionals
takes best advantage of available space
and resources

Fewer reworks: Legal issues:

-allows you to see potential problem -The legal ramifications of using BIM
areas and fix them software have not yet been extensively
-reduces the need for costly rework tested, let alone settled
and revision

Savings on materials: Cost of software:

-can track and monitor resources and -requires a substantial investment in
provide detailed information new technology
-can replenish supplies only when
necessary

Support for prefabrication: Lack of experts:

-allows you and partners to more easily -limited numbers of experts working in
prefabricate components of the project the field
offsite, which saves time and money -require an additional investment in
training and education

About Revit

Revit is a single application

built for Building
Information Modeling with
features for architectural
design, MEP (mechanical,
electrical and plumbing)
and structural engineering
and construction.

Revit is not BIM,

Revit is built for BIM
Revit substance
 vs AutoCAD
The main difference is that AutoCAD is
primarily a drafting tool to create basic
geometry that represents real life,
while Revit is used to create geometry that's
equipped with real-life information, hence the
term building information modeling, or BIM.
 Summary
There may be a lot of focus on technology, but BIM is also
about people and processes.
People need to understand the opportunities offered by
technology and make choices about how to use it.
People need to review their old processes and change
these to make the most of new technology. Then adopting
new processes, people need to use technology to do more
with less effort and in less time, not simply do the same as
before more efficiently.

Technology and good processes can improve

collaboration, but only if the people involved want to
collaborate!
