A national masonry Building Information Modeling (BIM) initiative is underway. Currently, if an architect or engineer wants to determine how a particular material might look or function in a building, masonry is not there. Steel, concrete, and precast are there but not masonry. Six industry groups and several other affiliated organizations have banded together to change that. Through this collaboration, the National BIM for Masonry Initiative (BIM-M) created a roadmap for developing and deploying BIM for the masonry industry. David Biggs, Biggs Consulting Engineer, is the masonry industry coordinator for the initiative and will share his insight on this project.
