At Diatec group we recognise that while there are many similarities between all AEC sectors when looking at BIM and digital engineering processes, we also understand that there are differences. Some of these differences for Engineers are distinct benefits, such as using the 3D model workflow to speed up the structural design by utilising two-way transfer between the design and detailing software. Other differences are unique challenges, for example building a practical level of detail in the model without to convey design intent without creating a huge model full of redundant data.
