BIM-based Formwork Modeling and Detailing Formwork has a fundamental role in concrete construction. Construction concrete contractors have gained more accuracy and efficiency by using a constructible 3D model. BIM-based formwork modeling allows structural contractors to preemptively resolve issues with formwork size and shape. It allows contractors to examine formwork elements in reference to other building elements and examine their correlation in a 360-degree view. Read on to learn more about BIM-based formwork modeling. https://bit.ly/3zkyhl9 ..read more
