Congratulations to two of our BIM Management team, Ulick Fitzmaurice and Ruari O'Byrne for completing their masters degrees in Construction Informatics.

The primary emphasis of the programme is on learning how existing technologies can be more efficiently applied throughout the construction process. The programme’s focus is strongly oriented towards the development of the underlying knowledge and the skills involved in the application of ICT systems through BIM processes in the AEC industry.

Building Information Modelling (BIM) is the process of generating and managing building data during its life cycle, from analysis of design, structure, environment & cost through construction management to end user integration with building management systems. J.B. Barry & Partners Ltd offers a range of computer modelling options to meet specific client requirements from basic 3D mass models & photomontages to complex Building Information Models, component creation and rendered presentations aligning to the EIR conditions for the data and information control, structuring and management specifications.

J.B. Barry & Partners Ltd has built BIM models of the structural and civil elements of projects which construction companies have used with compatible software to track time & costs during the construction phase of projects. In addition, J.B. Barry & Partners Ltd has prepared models of existing buildings to facilitate the analysis of the buildings structural performance and how these can be improved through refurbishment options. These models are generated in-house using a variety of software packages such as; Autodesk Robot, Autodesk Revit and Autodesk AutoCAD Civil 3D. Authoring tools (Autodesk Navisworks Manage) have been implemented by J.B. Barry & Partners Ltd to validate and verify the generated information to provide a standardised level of quality.
