Thank you for Subscribing to Construction Business Review Weekly Brief
As businesses reopen after the COVID-19 pandemic, digitization has taken center stage across industries, and the construction sector is no different. Facing an acute shortage of skilled labor, the construction industry focuses on leveraging technology and tools that drive productivity. Building Information Modeling (BIM) software like AutoCAD, Revit, SketchUp, Archicad, and more have made the life of construction workers much more straightforward. Filling the gap in skilled labor with technology is the best way forward for the BIM sector. One technology that has progressed leaps and bounds is Augmented Reality (AR), and its applications have found their way into the BIM space. As AR becomes increasingly available, it will shape how the BIM data is used and consumed and streamline construction operations, especially when connected to real-time data from connected IoT devices. In addition, BIM technology can make jobs safer, more efficient, and productive.
Modular construction has been around for several decades but is experiencing a new wave of attention due to changing customer perceptions and advances in digital design, planning, and production technologies. This new trend will have a significant impact on the usage of BIM tools during the design phase. Design decisions will be made more upfront, and designers will align their projects to the manufacturing process whilst focusing on the efficiency of manufacturing and assembly.
