Method and apparatus for checking constructability of a building information model
A system for determining constructability of a building project comprises a processor to execute software instructions, a storage device accessible by the processor in which to store a database, the database to store therein a building products information model (PIM), the PIM comprising a first plurality of building products, the database further to store therein a building information model (BIM) for the building project, wherein the BIM comprises a second plurality of building products. A user interface (UI) via receives input from a user and transmits output to a user according to software instructions executed by the processor. In one embodiment, software instructions executed by the processor cause the system to receive input from a user via the UI to select the BIM, search the PIM for at least one of the second plurality of building products in the BIM, and replace the at least one of the second plurality of building products in the BIM with one or more of the first plurality of building products in the PIM, responsive to the search of the PIM.
