BIM or Building Information Modelling is a process of creating and managing construction information using 3D techniques. BIM modelling can be used across a project’s lifecycle and represents both the physical and intrinsic properties of a building as an object-oriented model tied to a database.

BIM allows for project teams to work together to create and share a range of project documentation with the benefit of interconnectivity which in turn creates better project decisions during the correct stages of the project.

Some believe that the BIM approach is only worthwhile on bigger projects, but there is benefit and value to adopting BIM for all projects. BIM allows for a collaborative way of working to deliver masses of information over a Common Data Environment.

Adopting BIM is a long-term investment for all involved in the delivery of a project. Engaged clients have access to an early view of their building ‘as built’ and can foresee issues and tailor its operation before work even begins on site.

Unlike CAD systems, BIM offers an infused software which allows uses in-system calculations and offers the ability to connect with specifications developed with tools such as NBS Create.

BIM can also offer solutions to maintenance of buildings prior to completion of the project.

The Waterproofing aspect of a project is required to meet the same environmental standards, regulations and Government mandates as all other aspects in the built process. This means that the easy access to relevant and necessary information that BIM can provide is vital for the application of waterproofing, but also in its maintenance, to ensure it meets those Government standards.

Delta Membrane Systems Limited has significant experience in delivering waterproofing solutions to both large and small residential and commercial developments.

Delta products can be found on The National BIM Library, which has been developed by NBS. This free of charge online resource is well worth a visit. To find out more about Delta's BIM models visit https://www.deltamembranes.com/services/technical/bim/
