Emerging technologies can also be used by construction businesses and designers to increase the usability of current BIM tools.
Fremont, CA: Building information modeling (BIM) can potentially change the built environment's resilience.
Natural catastrophes have been growing in frequency and magnitude since the turn of the century, and scientists fear they will become considerably more catastrophic in the coming decades.
BIM, along with other digital construction and building information technologies, may be necessary for designing a society that can withstand catastrophic tragedies.
Construction companies, designers, building owners, and first responders may more easily prepare facilities for disasters and lessen the damage a crisis might do with BIM.
Designing More Resilient Buildings using AI and BIM
Architects and construction businesses may use building information modeling to design new structures created from the ground up to be catastrophe resistant.
When simulation technology gets paired with BIM models, designers can forecast how the building would perform in a natural disaster. For example, designers may use existing technology to simulate fire spread, estimate earthquake damage, and anticipate how floods would affect a structure.
