File Extension BIM

File type: Self-contained Catalog Item

The BIM file type is primarily associated with 'Envisioneer' by Cadsoft Corporation. Cadsoft creates home design software for builders, designers, remodelers, architects, drafters and consumers. This file is a self-contained file archive that contains geometry, materials and manufacturer specific data for use in many AEC design software programs. Additional extensions now include BMF, DWG, and DXF format. BIM format is a new extension developed for containing industry specific manufacturers' information for use among the most widely used architectural design programs in the industry.

When windows gives you an error message saying that it
"Cannot open BIM files", this means either:

A. You need to identify a program that can open the file
B. Or your registry may be damaged

In both cases it is strongly recommended that you
run a free scan for registry errors.
