BIM LOD (Level of Development) – LOD100 | 200 | 300 | 350 | 400 | 500
The concept of “Level of Development” (LOD) aims to tackle the challenge that certain model elements progress at varying speeds throughout the design phase. LOD provides a way to describe the progressive growth of specific model elements from the idea stage to actualization. The metric of LOD allows for a more precise definition of project deliverables. As a widely accepted industry standard, it facilitates effective communication and collaboration among project stakeholders.
