Summary activities
I've got lot of new information, defenitely i will continue study and search about BIM for more experience.
I see that BIM is an excellent tool, especially for MEP coordination. I agree that construction companies should implement this tool to have an edge over companies that hesitate.
I needed this information to enhance my knowledge when speaking to potential client in the AEC industry as I am a total newbie.
Well presented information, not only in the structuring of it, but also in how much is included in the material.
