BIM Modeller

Job Summary: The BIM Modeler will be responsible for creating, developing, and maintaining accurate and detailed Building Information Models (BIM) for architectural and structural disciplines throughout the project lifecycle. This role requires a strong understanding of both architectural design principles and structural engineering concepts, alongside proficiency in leading BIM software. The BIM Modeler will play a crucial role in enhancing design coordination, facilitating clash detection, and producing high-quality construction documentation.

Key Responsibilities:

• BIM Model Creation and Development:

• Develop detailed 3D BIM models for architectural and structural elements from design drawings, sketches, and specifications.

• Ensure models are accurate, clash-free, and adhere to project standards, BIM Execution Plans (BEP), and industry best practices.

• Integrate architectural and structural models with other disciplines (e.g., MEP, civil) to create a comprehensive federated model.

• Develop discipline-specific BIM content and families as required.

• Coordination and Collaboration:

• Participate actively in BIM coordination meetings, identify clashes and inconsistencies between architectural, structural, and other discipline models, and propose solutions.

• Collaborate effectively with architects, structural engineers, other discipline modelers, project managers, and construction teams to ensure design intent and constructability.

• Communicate design changes and model updates to relevant stakeholders in a timely manner.

• Documentation and Deliverables:

• Generate high-quality 2D drawings, plans, sections, elevations, schedules, and details directly from the BIM models for various project stages (e.g., tender, construction, shop drawings, as-built).

• Assist in producing material take-offs and quantity schedules from the BIM models.

• Ensure all documentation is consistent with the model and project standard

• Quality Control and Assurance:

• Conduct regular quality checks and audits of BIM models to ensure accuracy, completeness, and adherence to company and project standards.

• Implement and uphold BIM standards, protocols, and workflows throughout the project lifecycle.

• Maintain organized BIM documentation, version control, and file management.

• Problem Solving and Support:

• Troubleshoot and resolve any BIM-related issues or challenges that arise during the modeling process.

• Provide technical support and guidance on BIM software and workflows to other team members as needed.

• Stay updated with the latest BIM technologies, software advancements, and industry trends.

Qualifications:

Education:

Bachelor's Degree or Diploma in Architecture, Civil/Structural Engineering, or a related field.

Experience:

• Minimum of 3-5 years of proven experience as a BIM Modeler, specifically with architectural and structural projects, preferably in large-scale infrastructure or building construction.

• Experience working on complex and multi-disciplinary projects is highly desirable

Technical Skills:

• Proficiency in BIM software: Expert level proficiency in Autodesk Revit (Architectural and Structural modules) is essential.

• Strong proficiency in other relevant software: AutoCAD, Navisworks Manage (for clash detection and coordination), and potentially Civil 3D or other structural analysis software.

• Familiarity with BIM 360 or similar cloud-based collaboration platforms. o Understanding of Level of Development (LOD) concepts in BIM.

• Knowledge of relevant building codes, construction methods, and industry standards.

Soft Skills:

• Strong attention to detail and precision in modeling tasks.

• Excellent communication (written and verbal) and interpersonal skills.

• Strong collaboration and teamwork abilities.

• Analytical thinking and problem-solving skills to identify and resolve design and modeling issues.

• Ability to manage multiple priorities and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment. Highly motivated, proactive, and results oriented.

  • Knowledge of Dynamo or other visual programming tools for BIM automation.

• Experience with international BIM standards (e.g., ISO 19650).

• Experience in 4D (scheduling) and 5D (cost estimation) BIM applications
