Modern design cannot be imagined without the application of BIM technologies. Modeling is increasingly used in the design of new construction of buildings and construction, renovations and major repairs, which makes up the majority of projects underway. 2D programs are still used for the inspection of buildings and construction. Visual and instrumental examination is not a difficult task requiring complex programs. But the introduction of BIM technologies ensures the acceleration of work on the inspection of buildings and structures, significantly improves the quality of the result, and also maximizes the actual condition of building structures.
