CLASSIC BOOK on BIM and CONSTRUCTION MODELING
Nothing like this book has ever been published for our industry

3D Construction Modeling is a user friendly book that walks you through the virtual construction process for a small house. It is not only practical but the only guide that shows you step-by-step how to build a construction model using SketchUp. Building information modeling (BIM) is an important new tool for the design and construction industry.

The book and CD-ROM feature a trial version of the modeling software, video tutorials, and real-world construction details in ten easy graphic lessons (and can be used with any version of SketchUp). This unique graphic narrative is designed to introduce novices to the key features of construction modeling as well as inform advanced users of many of the advantages of preconstruction visualization.

3D Construction Modeling uses an innovative, simple comic format to bring busy professionals and students up to speed and enhance productivity in a very short period of time.
