Análise da aplicação da metodologia bim no processo de orçamentação da construção civil

Abstract

The current competitive market in the civil construction industry has led to the need of accurate estimates of the global cost of a project. Researchs and personal experiences show that the Building Information Modeling (BIM) has been used nowadays as a method capable of bringing numerous advantages. These benefits include an automatic and accurate estimate of costs, the efficiency when facing changes in the project, the support needed for making decisions during the life cycle of the building and the possibility to assess different scenarios. The present work aims to assess the use of BIM methodology and its concepts to link a parameterized 3D model with its cost budget. The main discussions presented here are based in conditions observed during the design of a building used for health services, in which the BIM methodology was used in the model followed by the cost budgeting in the software Revit and Arquimedes. In addition to that, it was made a comparison between the methology proposed here and the traditional methodology used for estimating the cost budget of a project. It was concluded that the use of BIM is promising in obtaining more accurate results, since the process gather the user and his experience with smart BIM tools. This allows the professional to get faster and accurate automatic results while estimating the costs in civil construction.
