Bonsai BIM Add-on

Building Information Modeling, or BIM, is a way of digitally describing our built environment to computers. Aspects of our built environment that can be described are:

• Products, like walls, doors, and windows
• Processes, like construction or maintenance tasks, and procedures
• Resources, like labour, materials, and equipment
• Controls, like permits, orders, costs, or calendar availability
• Actors, like occupants, clients, architects, and liable parties
• Groups, like systems, inventories, or zones

These objects may have lots of data and relationships. Examples of data might be classification systems, physical materials, associated documents, simulation results, and construction types. The data may be relevant to multiple disciplines, such as architecture, engineering, and construction.
