- [Instructor] This next section's on construction and design. The first question is, will fabrication-level BIM be created? And if yes, by whom? Fabrication-level BIM allows for manufacturers to fabricate off of the BIM model. Will it be the engineers that provide that model, or will it be the engineers that work for the manufacturers that will provide that model? Usually it's the engineers that work for the manufacturers that provide the model, but if they do than that responsibility needs to be indicated in the BIM execution plan so that those individuals will provide that fabrication-level BIM model as part of the final project. The next question is, will estimates be generated from the design model? Estimates can be generated from the design model based on the confidence you have in that design model. That means that the more accurate the design model is, the more likely it'll be that you can generate an estimate from the information in that model. The lower the level of detail…
