Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a changing force in our industry motivating us to embrace collaboration and make more efficient our project delivery processes. This community encourages the sharing of ideas and debate around building analysis/design, construction and operations.
Topics of interest to our members include:
1) Project delivery > integrated project delivery, design-build 2) Collaboration > distributed teams, BIM sharing, model management 3) Multi-disciplinary BIM > coordinated building systems, clash detection 4) Design creativity > computational design, visualization 5) Analysis > space, structural, mechanical, electrical, energy 6) Interoperability > data standards, IFC, gbXML, CIS/2 7) Contract documents > drawing automation and coordination 8) Construction > cost estimating, construction planning, digital fabrication 9) Facility operations > space and asset management
