were going to produce BIM models of their work, which were combined into a single
model by the general contractor (Mortenson). The models became the nucleus of
communication and quickly changed how the project team interacted and collaborated.
The design model, created and manipulated by Studio Daniel Libeskind with a general-
purpose 3D solid and surface modeling software called Form-Z, was used primarily as a
geometry and visualization tool.
For structural design, the centerline planes of each wall were defined by the architect, and
then a 3D wireframe model was developed and exported to structural analysis packages
(Figure 14, 15). The structural engineer (Arup) used SAP2000 for structural analysis and
eventually developed a very detailed model containing every member in the building,
including floor diaphragms. Several additional models were also required for the complex
stair framing, which winds its way around the atrium space. The composite floor framing
