  BIM WORKS offers commercial and residential drafting and design services. We utilize all the latest and greatest technology in producing BIM (Building Information Modeling) work. Building Information Modeling is a method of constructing a building virtually in 3D to reduce conflicts and errors in real world construction. These BIM models also coordinate design intent between all project architectural and engineering consultants reducing errors and omissions due to conflicts and miscommunication. BIM models when combined with architectural rendering software can produce amazing 3D images to effectively communicate design ideas and intents to clients. Show less
