Fulcrum Acoustic BIM models are now available.

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a 3D computer program used to organise every aspect of constructing a building or renovation. Covering such services as electrical, HVAC and plumbing, BIM software allows users to work collaboratively while developing a building plan before beginning construction.

Building Information Modelling is a broad term that describes the process of creating and managing digital information about a built asset such as building, bridge, highway and tunnels. BIM objects are digital descriptions of products or materials that, when combined with other BIM objects, create a BIM model.

A BIM object usually has 3D geometry that describes its physical appearance, as well as data that describes what it is, how it is classified, its performance values, material types and expected lifetime. In parametric models, each object need only be defined once and can then be placed in the model in multiple locations as required. If the object is then changed, these changes will appear throughout the model.

‘As audio coverage patterns are an important aspect of many construction projects, we now support BIM with models of our loudspeakers, available in a number of different popular formats,’ Fulcrum says.

Models for Fulcrum Acoustic can be reviewed and downloaded from the BIM website.
