Building Information Modeling - Civil Engineering Software

Buildin Information Modeling (BIM) and its benefits for future work and jobs
BIM Software

The Building Information Modeling (BIM) provides the 3D object library of the physical building. In essence, BIM is a way to construct building virtually, before building in the real world. While it has its root in architecture, the principles of BIM apply to everything that is built, including roads and highways, and the benefits of BIM are being experienced by Civil Engineers in the same way they enjoyed by Architects.
The use of powerful Building Information Modeling (BIM) for Infrastructure tools even at the conceptual design stage allows infrastructure designers to map out a variety of schemes from the outset to maximize land usage and at the same time minimize environmental impact across the range of Civil Engineering disciplines, including Road, Rail, Utilities, and GIS. BIM allows engineers more easily to predict the performance of the project before they are built, respond to design changes faster, optimize designs with analysis, simulation, and visualization, and also deliver high-quality documents. The most immediate benefits of BIM are for the road and highway projects and it is particularly important for transportation agencies because it can shorten the time to contract to let, resulting in projects being complete sooner and within more predictable timetables.
By investing in BIM for infrastructure civil engineering businesses will be able to increase the efficiency and profitability within the company as well as being more competitive in the marketplace. And at many places for completing projects, fast BIM will no doubt be the first call for supply.
BIM expands significantly the design decision matrix, facilitating collaboration among the various disciplines and systems, identifying clashes before construction begins. Also the design and construction teams, modeling can greatly aid owners in managing projects through their useful life.

    I would say this is one of the best articles I’ve read. From beginning to end you nailed it totally. To write this you might have worked hard for research. Thanks for sharing this good article.Structural engineering services

Great Man-Made River (GMR)

Libya's Great Man-Made River: The Great Man-Made River in Libya is one of the most ambitious Civil Engineering projects in the history of mankind.  In the year 1953, the Libyan Government found not only vast oil reserves but also a vast quantity of fresh water locked under the strata. Most of the water was trapped around 7000-30000 years ago, which is divided into 4 different basins. The first basin is named the Kufra basin, which is near the Egyptian border which covering almost 35000 sq kilometers and is quite deep, around 2000 m deep. The other basins are in the Sirte Basin, which covers 10000 sq kilometers, the third in the Murzuk Basin, and the last in the Jabal Fezzan Basin, covering 4800 sq kilometers.  The GMR project will be used to transfer water to the North of the country to provide water for irrigation purposes for more than 6 million people. This will be a changing point for Libya, and Colonel Muammar Gaddafi called it the Eighth Wonder of the World. The work sta...
