OF DETAIL OF BIM MODEL
ELEMENTS.
What Is LOD - The
Level Of Detail Of
BIM Elements?
The Level of Detail of BIM
elements or LOD is a chapter of
BEP (BIM Execution Plan). In BIM
terminology, it presents a precise
description of all typical elements
in the BIM model, both in terms
of graphic details of BIM
elements and in terms of quantity
type data that the BIM element
should contain. The level of detail
of BIM elements is usually
directly related to the work and
data delivery at certain phases of
the project, so it can be safely
concluded that the level of detail
of BIM elements defines the
graphical appearance of BIM
elements and the type and
quantity of data allocated to BIM
