Level of Development - LOD100

Level of Development - LOD100 is the initial stage of Building Information Modeling (BIM), where model elements are represented as conceptual shapes or symbols. At this stage, the model contains only basic geometric representations without specific details such as dimensions, materials, or precise locations.

                              Applications

  • Feasibility Studies – Helps stakeholders assess project viability based on basic geometry and spatial relationships.
  • Early Cost Estimation – Enables preliminary budgeting using volume, area, and height estimations.
  • Massing & Site Analysis – Provides a rough 3D representation to evaluate environmental impacts, zoning regulations, and site constraints.
  • Concept Design Development – Assists architects and planners in exploring different design options before detailed modeling begins.
  • Client & Stakeholder Presentations – Visualizes the project conceptually for discussions and approvals.
