Building Information Modeling (BIM)

Madison has dedicated and experienced staff that use BIM to create 3D structures via Revit and AutoCAD. These programs give Madison the ability to translate 3D drawings into a coordinated BIM model. These models use detailed sheets and parametric families to enhance project design efficiency and coordination.

Using BIM provides the added benefit to visualize project components, improve project coordination, identify clash detection, and provide cost effective solutions. Madison uses BIM during Design-Build projects to merge the construction components with the design schemes to share the 3D models of a project, and enhance trade collaboration.

BIM (Building Information Modeling) is an intelligent 3D model-based process that gives architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) professionals the insight and tools to more efficiently plan, design, construct, and manage buildings and infrastructure. BIM is used to design and document building and infrastructure designs. Every detail of a building is modeled in BIM. The model can be used for analysis to explore design options and to create visualizations that help stakeholders understand what the building will look like before it’s built. The model is then used to generate the design documentation for construction.
