Want to see what the future of BIM looks like? Head to Informed Infrastructure to read all about the historic Grand Paris Express (GPE) project, a monumental undertaking that will effectively double the size of the Paris metro system, easing travel and connecting vital parts of the city.
According to the article, “Although it’s a historic project by any measure, it’s also one of the first infrastructure projects of this scale to use Building Information Modeling (BIM) from start to finish. With six architectural and civil engineering design firms participating in the project, and all of them producing 3D models instead of traditional 2D design content, the GPE is taking BIM for infrastructure to a whole new level.”
