Frequently Asked Questions

5D BIM, or building information modeling in plain words, is adding the dimension of cost to a 4D BIM model or adding cost and time dimensions to a 3D BIM model. This data-rich model is intelligently used across a project’s preconstruction stages to plan budget, minimise material wastage and other cost estimations.

Rated amongst the best 5D BIM specialists, BluEnt uses premium software for creating BIM models such as Revit, Bentley SYNCHRO, Navisworks, ACC, CostX, PriMus IFC etc.

3D BIM models tell about the spatial and geometrical aspects of the project. Basically, representing the model in the X, Y and Z dimensions.

4D BIM adds a dimension of time to it. 4D simulation and schedule linking enable the stakeholders to understand the progress of the project over time.

With 5D BIM, cost data is added into the BIM model that enables real-time budgeting, quality take-offs, and better financial control throughout the project lifecycle.

BluEnt’s 5D cost estimation and quantity take-offs services help to build responsive 5D data-rich BIM models that establish iterative cost plans. Thus, helping the stakeholders track real-time cost forecasting, improving budgeting accuracy and streamlining procurement.

Indeed, reducing cost overruns and material wastage. Get a clear financial picture from planning to handover with BluEnt’s expert 5D BIM services.

To get started with 5D BIM cost estimation services, you’ll need:

• 3D BIM model of the project.

• Scheduling information for the construction projects, such as tasks, duration, and dependencies.

• Cost data for materials, equipment, labour and other expenses.

Yes, 5D BIM modeling services by BluEnt are intelligently designed to cater both new construction and renovation projects. Thus, helping them to manage costs and schedules effectively.

BluEnt’s 5D cost estimation BIM services automates much of the quantity takeoff process by extracting material quantities directly from the 3D model. This data is then used to generate accurate cost estimates, which keeps on updating automatically as the design evolves or changes occur in the project.

While beneficial for a wide range of projects, 5D BIM estimation services by BluEnt are particularly advantageous for large-scale and complex projects with intricate designs and tight deadlines. Projects where precise cost control and budget management are critical or the ones that require extensive collaboration among multiple stakeholders, also form our expertise.

The cost of BIM services completely depends on the scope, size and complexity of the project. To get the most competitive and accurate quote, feel free to reach out to our 5D BIM implementation experts.
