This paper discusses the use of BIM on the re-modelling and refurbishment of Manchester Central Library and Town Hall Extension.

Synopsis

This paper discusses the use of BIM on the £145M re-modelling and refurbishment of Manchester Central Library and Town Hall Extension. We believe this is the first time BIM has been implemented on such a large project of this type and demonstrates Manchester City Council's clear commitment to deliver all projects in this way, in line with UK Government policy.
