Adaptability and collaboration are a necessity for BIM , the future of construction
By Will House
The rapid advancement of technology has driven significant change across sectors in recent years . And the architectural , engineering and construction industry is no different . Building Information Modelling ( BIM ) has become a mainstay on projects , and its quality is increasing exponentially . To keep up with these advancements , it is crucial that businesses adopt flexible and collaborative practices between sectors and divisions . In doing so , they can take full advantage of BIM across projects - from concept stages to design , through to construction .
The Paterson Redevelopment Project ( the Paterson ) exemplifies what can be achieved through effectively leveraging BIM technologies . Part of The Christie in Manchester , the Paterson is the largest cancer research campus in Europe . The £ 150 million facility , completed last year , will provide advancements in prevention , early detection , and treatment of cancer . By using BIM , the Paterson building was built to last , and to adapt with future scientific advancements .
