BIM Application and Practice with Rhino — A Case Study of Steel Construction in Datong Library

Abstract:

BIM is widely accepted in construction because of its concept of integration, and will be the mainstream in the future. BIM became more and more important in collaborating on all the working stages during building life-cycles due to its great advantage in data integration and processing. The connection between Rhino, a designing software, and BIM becomes necessary. This article introduced the adoption and implementation of Rhino in the Steel Detailed Design and Construction in Datong Library. The guidance and effectiveness of parameterized models generated by Rhino in smoothing the complicated steel construction process was also introduced.
