Advantages offered by architectural BIM during design development phase Architectural BIM Modeling provides enormous advantages to design and construction professionals during the design development phase as it reinforces high-end 3D visualization during it, which is not at all practical with when it comes to twodimensional drawings. A perfect or error-free design leads to the reduction of design error, change orders, wastage of materials and budget overrun etc, and developing architectural design becomes really simple with the assistance of Revit Architecture.

That means architectural BIM results into the creation of error-free architectural design in 3D form which include high level of details about architectural elements. In Revit Architecture, architectural elements can be modeled with high Level of Detail which can allow architects to see concrete details about them such as their dimensions, size, quantity, location and orientation etc. The best part is that design and construction professionals can also add additional data which is not related to geometry in architectural models and which helps them in analyzing other crucial details about the project. For example, with the addition of non-geometrical data such as 4D, 5D and 6D in architectural model design and construction professionals can effectively calculate the time and cost of the project which help them to a great extent when it comes to streamlining project activities. When the project is reviewed by building stakeholders they can effectively analyze the effectiveness of the design in terms of it being financially feasible for construction.


When it comes to obtaining clarity on the design, 3D visualization reinforced by Revit tremendously help design and construction professionals. When it comes to identifying the constructability of the design in actual location 3D models are again very helpful for architects and engineers. For improving design quality of architectural model clash detection services can be performed.

Since high quality architectural design is developed by BIM modelers, it is quite feasible for design and construction professionals to extract high-end architectural drawings from it. Generally when it comes to performing actual construction, architects and engineers use those drawings which are extracted from Building Information Models as they are immensely accurate.
