Abstract
Building Information Modelling (BIM) has the potential to increase effi ciency in the construction industry by changing traditional 2 Dimensional (2D) information exchange to a method of delivery that promotes collaboration and integration across the construction supply chain. From a Quantity Surveyor (QS) perspective, BIM offers capabilities to generate Quantity Take-Off (QTO) directly from a 3 Dimensional (3D) model. This paper outlines the 4 Dimensional (4D - Planning) and 5 Dimensional (5D - Cost) process. It also addresses some of the issues that the QS may come up against when generating and using BIM quantities and some diffi culties when transitioning from a 2D to a BIM process.
