BIM (Building Information Modeling) involves creating a digital model of a building to allow everyone to understand it. The use of BIM in the UK construction industry is increasing, with the government requiring its use by 2016. There is high demand for quality BIM objects that contain information, geometry, behavior and presentation attributes. The National BIM Library provides object standards and access to thousands of BIM objects to help the industry adopt BIM practices.
