BIM (Building Information Modelling) is a digital process for planning, constructing and managing buildings that combines 3D models with rich information about materials, products and technical properties. It is not just a drawing or a 3D model, but a complete information system that enables architects, engineers and contractors to better communicate, transparency and accuracy.
When designers use a so-called Building information modelling or BIM library, they get more than just the product shape. The pre-prepared files include:
- Geometry – a 3D model that they can insert into their project;
- Technical properties such as product dimensions, thermal values, weight, materials;
- Visual data about the texture, colour shades, and product finish;
- Meta data such as product codes, manufacturer contact, and links to documentation, etc.
With the BIM booklet, the designer saves a lot of time, as he does not have to manually enter data. In addition, it ensures that the data is accurate and aligned with the manufacturer’s realistic offer.
Key advantages for designers and investors …
- … it is definitely a time saver, as inserting products into a project is easy, without manual modelling.
- Since all information is centralized and connected (a change in one place is reflected everywhere), the possibility of errors is significantly reduced.
- The data in the BIM booklet is clear, therefore enabling more accurate estimates and fewer unforeseen expenses, thus optimizing costs.
- Architects, designers, contractors and investors use the same data, which enables better coordination.
- The BIM system also emphasizes sustainability and transparency, as it includes all information on energy efficiency, material durability and lifespan.
BIM is becoming a standard in architecture and construction, as it is increasingly required by public tenders and investors. Because we are aware of this and understand that time is of the essence in design, we at JUB have also prepared an updated BIM library of our products. This will simplify your work, make it faster and even more accurate.
JUB’s latest BIM booklet includes:
- Updated colour chart,
- New products added,
- New systems included,
- Even more precise technical features,
- Optimized files for faster work.
- Available for ArchiCAD, Revit and AutoCAD.
With our BIM library, you get all the product data you need in one place.
