Introduction to the BIM Model App in Methvin
The BIM Model App in Methvin brings a powerful new capability to your construction management toolkit. It allows teams to upload, view, and interact with IFC (Industry Foundation Classes) files directly within the Methvin platform. With support for BCF (BIM Collaboration Format), users can raise and share issues, collaborate seamlessly, and improve decision-making across disciplines.
Key Benefits
- Improved Project Coordination: Combine multiple IFC files—such as structural and HVAC plans—to identify clashes and optimize workflows.
- Centralized 3D Model Viewing: Upload architectural, structural, plumbing, or MEP models and view them in a single shared canvas.
- Precise Measurement and Scaling: Get accurate dimensions without needing external tools.
- Collaborative Issue Tracking (BCF): Share and manage construction issues in context, directly on the 3D model.
Whether you're an architect reviewing design accuracy or a site engineer checking coordination between plumbing and electrical systems, the BIM Model app ensures everyone is working from the same virtual model—minimizing errors and miscommunication.
