Assignment Objective:

This assignment aims to comprehensively understand Architectural supplemental

services, specifically Building Information Modeling (BIM). It's market trends, current

status, factors to consider, services provided, and more in-depth details.

I. Introduction

In the Architecture field, the Architect's role is more than just designing and planning

services. Architects can provide various additional services to fulfill the different needs of

customers and projects. Supplemental services broaden the area of architectural practice,

allowing architects to address issues beyond building design. From interior design to

sustainability consultancy and project management, architects offer a diverse range of

services adapted to the particular needs of a project. Building Information Modeling (BIM)

services are one of the various supplemental services an architect can provide. BIM is an

advanced model-based technique that provides insight into designing and managing

construction and infrastructure projects in a more cost-effective and environmentally

friendly manner. BIM allows an understanding of how the Architectural, Mechanical,

Electrical, Plumbing and Fire Protection systems fit into the structure, making designs

more precise and coordinated, reducing errors, and improving collaboration.

II. Background Research

a. History of Building Information Modeling (BIM)

The technologies that underpin BIM have evolved for more than 50 years alongside

computer science research. The 1970s and 1980s saw watershed moments in computing
 ii
and software development. As a result, it's no wonder that the history of BIM has gotten a

jump start in recent years. (Oberste-Ufer, 2020)

20th Century

Charles M. Eastman, a US professor, released a paper in 1975 titled "The Use of Computers

Instead of Drawings in Design". Prof. Eastman stated that it would be revolutionary to have

a tool that included Information about maps, facades, viewpoints, and sections in the same

document — and that a single change altered everything. As the name suggests, before

BIM gained widespread adoption in construction and design, the standard was two-

dimensional computer drawings and even hand-drawn models. (Singh, 2023)

2000s

The early 2000s saw the introduction of BIM 1.0. This period saw the first widespread

adoption of BIM in the construction industry. It enabled 3D modeling and the integration

of some data. BIM 2.0 was developed in the mid-2000s. This phase witnessed a more

advanced level of data integration. BIM could now handle Information on supplies, costs,

and schedules—project management and coordination have substantially improved. BIM

3.0 evolved in the late 2000s, following the development of cloud technologies and real-

time collaboration. Stakeholders may now collaborate easily, regardless of their

geographical locations. This represented a new degree of transparency and efficiency in

the construction process. (Singh, 2023)

Present time

Today, we are on the verge of BIM 4.0. This period represents comprehensive integration,

with BIM as a dynamic system rather than a mere tool. It incorporates artificial intelligence,

and buildings are digitally created before they exist. Building Information Modeling (BIM)
 iii
has remarkably transformed the construction industry. The influence of BIM is evident.

Architects, engineers, and contractors now rely on digital models to make decisions, which

leads to better design, cost control, and reduced errors. It reduces rework and waste while

increasing sustainability. (Singh, 2023)

b. Current BIM trends

• 3D Printing

The evolution of 3D printing technology allows professionals to construct precise

architectural design parts rapidly and with minimal material waste.

3D Printing is one of the important extensions of the 3D modeling process in BIM, creating

actual models by layering thin materials. This technology improves team collaboration by

allowing them to study and understand structures' dynamics, functionality, and efficiency

through physical representation, which was previously impossible with BIM. As 3D

Printing evolves, more AEC professionals will appreciate its advantages in producing

superior solutions.

• Digital Twins

A digital twin is a 3D space model linked to real-world data, acting as a dynamic

reproduction of a building or asset. It resembles the genuine equivalent, allowing for

remote management and decision-making. Digital twins are becoming increasingly crucial

for sustainability planners, particularly when paired with environmental and health-related

sensor data. These sensors monitor emissions, contaminants, humidity, and noise,

providing helpful Information about the asset's performance. However, it is critical to

 iv
provide individuals with actionable intelligence and dynamic advice so that they may

effectively act on their findings.

• Internet of Things (IoT)

IoT has the potential to transform BIM modeling and project installation. IoT streamlines

data distribution to prefab workshops, contractors, and modelers, simplifying the process.

Real-time data acquired by IoT devices improves the design process, resulting in efficient

ready-to-order designs. This accelerates the entire design process from beginning to end.

• Drone Usage

Drones have become essential instruments for project managers and AEC experts in the

building industry. They efficiently capture and report on project progress, providing

reliable data quickly over broad areas. BIM specialists use this data to improve their

models, resulting in a more trustworthy BIM modeling process. Furthermore, drones'

capacity to scan rugged terrain shields human surveyors from potential hazards at

problematic sites.

• Cloud Technology

Cloud technology provides a wide range of computer services via the Internet, including

storage, databases, networking, servers, software, and analytics. This allows architects,

designers, and engineers to collaborate seamlessly from multiple places while accessing

the same Information. Cloud integration increases productivity, lowers errors, and

improves communication in building projects. (Huyen, 2023)

• AI-Powered Automation

BIM software embraces AI-powered automation to optimize repetitive processes such as

clash detection, report generation, and building system optimization. This leads to fewer
 v
human errors, faster project completion, and higher accuracy. AI isn't stopping there; it's

also predicting design errors before they appear on the construction site, saving much

hassle.

• VR and AR

Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) are no longer limited to gaming. BIM

software uses these technologies to provide a glimpse into the future of our buildings. It

allows to overlay computer models over the real world, making on-site decision-making

simple. No more attempting to read complex designs; point the device and watch the vision

come to life. (ASBIM CONSULTING, 2023)

c. Market and Opportunities of BIM services

BIM outsourcing services facilitate communication, collaboration, and the creation of

design information-related models for all parties engaged in the design and execution

processes.

construction sector through the use of digital technology and collaboration.

1. Collaboration

BIM encourages collaboration among all stakeholders in a construction project.

This includes architects, engineers, contractors, and clients.

 ix
2. Information management

BIM is based on the management of data and Information throughout the life cycle

of a construction or infrastructure project. This encompasses the development,

distribution, and upkeep of data.

3. Visualization:

BIM allows stakeholders to see a building or infrastructure project in 3D, which

helps them better comprehend the design and construction process.

4. Accuracy

BIM increases accuracy and precision in design and construction by utilizing a

single, comprehensive model that includes all critical Information.

5. Efficiency:

BIM streamlines the construction process by minimizing errors, enhancing

communication, and allowing stakeholders to coordinate more effectively.

6. Sustainability:

BIM can be used to examine and optimize a building or infrastructure project's

sustainability by providing statistics on energy usage, material use, and

environmental impact.

SWOT ANALYSIS

Strengths:

• SWOT analysis says BIM can help reduce waste and save precious time and money

spent on a project.

• BIM gives the 3D designs of a building project, an improved feature of this method.
 x
• This information modeling system stimulates the construction sequences, making

the entire construction work smooth and clear.

• BIM implementation enables errors and thereby avoids the risks that may be caused

during the construction time.

• BIM also significantly minimizes the use of energy over a building's lifecycle

• BIM can be applicable even in the smallest companies.

• BIM is widely used in all construction industry sectors, including construction,

engineering, civil, mining, facility management, etc.

Weakness:

• BIM does not encourage collaboration across diverse occupations.

• It prioritizes building over Information.

• To effectively deploy BIM, multiple sectors of an organization must collaborate.

• To widely deploy BIM, each country's government must take the initiative.

• Another weakness is that BIM lacks a unified software platform.

• Even while BIM saves money, integrating the software and training the workers

requires upfront costs.

Opportunities:

• BIM implementation provides possibilities to engage with international BIM

leaders in education.

• BIM can be defined as the DNA of future construction because it contains all of the

project's Information before the building begins.

• BIM adoption helps to build new skills and knowledge in the field.
 xi
Threats:

• The introduction of BIM may threaten the traditional working styles of the

construction sector.

• If BIM is employed, the type of construction contract needs to be altered.

• There is a limit to knowing the BIM fully.

• The number of construction enterprises implementing BIM is decreasing, as is the

number of suppliers.

BIM service Challenges:

• Lack of standardization.

One of the most critical issues in the BIM sector is the need for standardized processes and

protocols. Different software applications, file formats, and terminologies can cause

confusion and inefficiencies. Standardization is critical for effective communication and

collaboration in the industry.

• Integration Issues

Another challenge that BIM faces is the integration of different applications and

technologies. Other teams may utilize different software, and ensuring they can collaborate

seamlessly is challenging. Integration difficulties can cause delays and errors in

Advantages of Outsourcing Revit BIM Drafting Needs in the Philippines

Numerous factors make the Philippines an appealing destination for construction

organizations looking for dependable, high-quality outsourcing construction services.

These are the growing advantages, particularly when it comes to outsourcing Revit skills

in the Philippines. (GoTeam, & GoTeam, 2023)

• Cost-Effectiveness

Outsourcing to the Philippines provides significant cost reductions without compromising

project quality. Given its lower cost of living, the country provides competitive prices,
 xiii
making professional services more accessible than in Western countries. This also results

in high-quality Revit BIM models and documentation without exceeding the budget.

• Skilled and proficient professionals.

Companies who outsource Revit and AutoCAD drafting services to the Philippines may

focus their efforts on what they do best, leaving these vital but time-consuming activities

in the capable hands of Revit drafters. Aside from financial rewards, many industries

benefit from the fresh perspectives and creative ideas that Revit drafters bring to their

projects. Their thorough awareness of worldwide architectural trends and standards ensures

that their designs are both functional and visually appealing.

• Efficiency and Agility

Outsourcing in the Philippines brings the benefit of flexibility. Depending on project

demand, outsourced teams can quickly scale their services up or down. Thus, this flexibility

enriches efficiency and delivery speed while maintaining excellent, high-quality results.

IV. Case Studies and Examples

Case Study 1: Issues And Challenges in The Philippine Construction Industry: An

Opportunity for Bim Service Adoption

It's interesting to learn about the construction industry's significant contribution to global

economic growth, particularly in the Philippines where it recorded an impressive GDP

increase in the second quarter of 2021. However, it's unfortunate that the industry faces

several challenges that result in significant declines in productivity. Building Information

Modeling (BIM) could be a potential solution to address these issues, but it seems that the
 xiv
technology is still in its early stages in the Philippines. Construction professionals must be

aware of BIM and its benefits to maximize its potential in resolving industry-related issues.

It's good to know that a study was conducted to identify these issues and the degree of their

occurrence in Philippine construction. The study's mixed-methods approach, including a

literature review and structured survey, provides a comprehensive understanding of the

situation. The identification of 11 frequently encountered issues and the use of descriptive

statistics and other data analysis methods provide valuable insights that could help improve

the industry's current state.

Table 1: Rankings of construction issues from the survey (Dimaculangan,2023)

According to Table 5, the top five issues frequently encountered in construction are time

delays, variation or change orders, quality issues, design changes, and safety. The study

found that time delays are the most frequent issue encountered in construction, which is

consistent with previous research. Filipino construction professionals also reported time
 xv
delays, change orders, quality issues, design changes, and safety issues as the top five

significant issues encountered in construction. All 11 issues were significant, with RII

values above 0.50 indicating a medium-to-highly significant level. The study also found

that the awareness level about BIM among respondents is not high, with only 20.90%

having significant knowledge and skills about BIM and 35.82% having no awareness. The

majority of the industry still uses traditional methods such as CADD-based drawing and

spreadsheets and does not implement BIM in their current construction processes.

(Dimaculangan, 2023)

Case Study 2: Adoption of Building Information Modeling (BIM) in the Philippines’ AEC

Industry: Prospects, Issues, and Challenges

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a modern technique and procedure utilized in the

architectural, engineering, and construction (AE&C) industries to improve facility planning,

design, and construction. BIM is regarded as one of the most promising developments in the AE&C

sector. It is now widely used in other nations, and the benefits in terms of time, cost, and material

waste are considerable. The Philippines, on the other hand, has been exposed to the BIM concept;

nevertheless, it is not extensively employed, nor has it been used to capitalize on the benefits of

developing an effective and efficient construction management system.

This study examined the prospects and benefits of using BIM, as well as its limitations and adoption

in the Philippine construction industry. The benefits and challenges of using BIM to achieve lean

construction, as well as the obstacles, limits, and issues associated with its adoption in the

Philippine construction industry, are discussed and reviewed. The study's findings can be used as a

benchmark to raise awareness among users and potential users directly involved in the building
 xvi
industry about the benefits of BIM in attaining lean construction. The findings suggest that barely

one-third of respondents use BIM, and roughly the same percentage are unaware of BIM ideas.

Figure 2: Benefits of BIM in the Philippines AE&C Industry (Baccay,

Bagcal, Barbier and Rodriguez, 2019)

As construction drawings become more accurate in BIM as they are created and evolved in

parametric 3D modeling, BIM gives a higher degree of detail and development, which is useful in

generating and communicating shop drawings and prefabricated details. Time reduction was placed

second in terms of benefits. The use of BIM software, specifically REVIT, enables a team to

generate drawings that remove redundancy in the process. The lowest-ranked advantage was cost

reduction; nonetheless, these benefits still contribute to overall project cost reduction. (Baccay,

Bagcal, Barbier and Rodriguez, 2019)
