Reviews

...an excellent resource on the history of BIM, its current status, and its future potential, with some very intriguing ideas for its further development... Ingram... has captured his extensive experience as one of the pioneering developers of BIM, which makes his analysis of current trends and the possible future of BIM very compelling. Every technical book has a different flavor based on the background and expertise of the author, and we are fortunate to have Ingram's captured in Understanding BIM.
