Responsibilities

The basic responsibilities of the BIM Designer include but are not limited to the following:

• Collaborate with others to develop CAD standards and best practices.

  • Reduce CAD labor
  • Realize opportunities for off-site fabrication
  • Reduce material waste
  • Accelerate project schedules

We want tools and processes that enable our documentation to be easily and intuitively understood.
