The aspects and benefits covered by a BIM audit were discussed in our article (BIM Audit for Projects), but one of the most important, and often overlooked, is the reduction of digital debt that gradually builds up in a 3D model over time. This issue leads to a slow degradation of the model, resulting in:
- Degraded elements or elements with insufficient information
- Orphan elements within the model
- Undetected clashes
- Element data that does not correspond to real-world components
- Inability to generate projections or simulations
- Effects of digital debt in a BIM model
Avoid a decreased performance in your model
These issues lead to decreased performance of the model, both during the project and in later stages, and can even turn the model into a source of delay, something no one wants to revisit, instead of a valuable tool for information and coordination between disciplines.
If you don’t want this to happen to your project, contact Acero Estudio. We are BIM consultants specialized in BIM audits for ongoing projects and construction phases, and we are here to support you.
