Building Information Modelling
for efficient development planning
Reduce costs and delays to your project by investing in Building Information Modelling using state-of-the-art BIM software.
Welcome to BIM 3D
Your BIM partner of choice
BIM 3D specialises in Building Information Modelling (BIM).
We are BIM experts, using this and other industry-standard software to help developers, facilities managers and project leaders visualise building projects in 3D and with all services shown.
This helps to ensure plans are absolutely accurate before any work begins on site, giving you confidence in your site work and saving costly re-working during the project.

- What is a BIM Software?
Building Information Modelling (BIM) is a process that starts with the creation of an intelligent 3D model. This model can be constructed to show electrical, mechanical and public health facilities and enable document management, project coordination, and simulation throughout the entire lifecycle of a construction project. The main purpose of BIM is to help individuals, businesses and government agencies to plan, design, operate and maintain projects more efficiently.
In a competitive and demanding construction industry, BIM is a key asset. It not only allows design and construction teams to work more efficiently; it also allows them to capture the data created during the process to inform operational and maintenance decisions and activities. For this reason, there is an increasing demand for BIM services, and companies need to know they can rely on expert partners to help them reduce project time and cost.
BIM delivers and helps to operates built assets using well-structured digital information that’s easily available to all involved parties. This means it is more a way of working than a specific software, physical object or entity. BIM works most effectively when all parties collaborate and share the information they create in a mutually accessible online space known as a common data environment (CDE). This collection of data is known as ‘information model’ and can be used to inform all stages of a built asset’s life cycle: from inception right through to operation and renewal.
To make the most of the opportunities offered by intelligent 3D models, different uses of BIM may require different software applications. There are many types, including:
• Object-oriented 3D modelling software for creating and manipulating models (Autodesk Revit or Bentley MicroStation)
• Engineering analysis software (Risa 3D or Tekla Structures)
• Rendering software (Lumion, 3D Studio Max)
• Coordination software (Navisworks or Tekla Structures)
• Estimating software (Timberline or Graph iSOFT Constructor)
• Middleware (Innovaya or Avatech Earth Connector)
• Detailing software (Tekla Structures or SDS/2).

What do we do?
We work with you at any stage of a project, from initial concept to reviews and refits. Take advantage of our experience and capability, and work in partnership with us through the life of your project and beyond.
Time-critical 3D modelling
Helping you to meet project demands when time is against you.
Local and global projects
We work with local, national and international companies to help them develop and manage their facilities.
Completely collaborative
Revit software can be linked to other software to deliver true collaboration across everyone involved in the project.
All building services covered
Our 3D models cover all electrical, mechanical, public health and other services, to an accuracy of 25mm, ensuring that you are confident your designs meet legal and regulatory standards.
Clash detection
One of the most important procedures in the BIM process, this provides real-time collision detection during designing which gives the team clues to improve their design among multiple building systems, preventing costly rework during construction.
Your project partner
We work in partnership with you, with the potential to give you a dedicated member of full-time staff, depending on the scope of your project.
