3D-printed house could help solve Japan's construction crisis

일본의 건설 위기를 해결하기 위해 3D 프린팅 기술을 활용한 두 층짜리 주택 'Stealth House'가 공개되었다. 이 주택은 지진에 강한 설계 기준을 충족하며, 14일 만에 현장에서 완성되었다. 3D 프린팅 건설 기술은 노동력 부족과 생산성 저하 문제를 해결할 수 있는 잠재력을 지니고 있으나, 제도적 규제와 금융 지원의 한계가 도입을 가로막고 있다. 일본 정부와 민간 기업들은 기술 표준화와 인력 양성에 힘쓰며 3D 프린팅 건설의 확산을 추진 중이다.

Stop calling every 3D model "BIM." 🛑

There is a massive difference between a model that looks good and a model that works for you. While a standard 3D model is great for visualization and marketing, a true BIM (Building Information Modeling) model is a digital twin powered by data.

BIM Model Planning With Bim Level of Development

Structured BIM modeling improves project delivery. The bim level of development defines LOD 100–500 and helps teams understand model maturity. This reduces communication gaps and improves collaboration.
