Building Information Modeling Digital Technology: The detail practice of BIM technology used in Environmental design teaching in High Educational Institution

Abstract

Building Information Modelling(BIM) is the foundation of digital transformation in architecture, engineering, and construction(AEC)industry. BIM is the holistic process of creating and managing information for a built asset. A traditional CAD and 3D modelling technology is widely used in university’s architecture and landscape courses teaching today. Every single detail of traditional course education does not match the internationally market and BIM technology which is more common and popular today. Using BIM technology in university to teach architecture and landscape design will make changes to design education, and will improve the education practice in Environmental Design system. This article will introduce more detail about BIM technology, and how it changes and affects traditional architecture & landscape teaching, how this technology merged with professions, and how this technology brings comprehensive learning ways and new insight for students in their future career life.
