This document provides an overview of Building Information Modeling (BIM) including definitions of BIM, the benefits of BIM, examples of BIM implementation on projects, and considerations for adopting BIM. It defines BIM as a shared digital representation of a built object that forms a reliable basis for decision making. The benefits discussed include improved design coordination, reduced waste, single source of information for a projects lifecycle. Case studies on education and housing projects demonstrate BIM uses. Implementation requires developing a strategy, selecting pilot projects, understanding learning curves and costs/benefits. Widespread adoption of BIM is an important change for the construction industry.
Building Information Modeling (BIM) is more than a new technology;
it is an innovative approach to the entire design, construction, and
maintenance process. Many of the agencies and organizations
involved in the building industry have their own definitions of BIM,
but they all have a similar feel to that of the National BIM Standard

Top 20 mistakes you will make on your 1st Drupal projectIztok Smolic
Working as a Drupal theming/development consultant on many "rescue" mission projects I seen many different mistakes web developers do when facing with Drupal for the first time.
Motivation:
Wir haben schon alles einmal konstruiert und gebaut. Heißt das, es gibt keine wirklichen Herausforderungen mehr für den BAU? Nein, der Paradigmenwechsel in der deutschen Bauwirtschaft hat eben erst begonnen. 60 Jahre nach der Errichtung des Fernsehturmes liegt eine der Herausforderungen für die deutsche Bauwirtschaft darin, die Baukultur in Deutschland so zu verändern, dass Großprojekte unter Einbindung der Öffentlichkeit, mit einem hohen Maß an Transparenz, in den vereinbarten Rahmen für Qualität, Kosten und Terminen, verlässlich abgewickelt werden können. Inzwischen ist das Digitale Bauen ist ein wichtiger Bestandteil der Digitalen Agenda unserer Bundesregierung. Die daran angegliederte Reformkommission für Großprojekte hat auf ihrer 4. Sitzung am 13. Oktober mehrere BIM-Pilotprojekte zur Erprobung der modernen, digitalen Planungsmethode vorgestellt.
Alexander Dobrindt, Bundeminister für Verkehr und digitale Infastruktur: Große Bauprojekte werden immer komplexer. Die Anforderungen an technische Qualität, Umweltschutz und Bürgerbeteiligung steigen. Modernstes, digitales Bauen kann helfen, Kosten- und Zeitpläne im Griff zu behalten. Mit vier Pilotprojekten testen wir die Potenziale der Digitalisierung jetzt in der Praxis und werten die Erfahrungen wissenschaftlich aus. Unter der Begleitung von 35 Experten will die BIM Task Group den gesamten Bauprozess bis Ende 2015 auf den Prüfstand stellen.
Doch tatsächlich fühlt sich bisher für die Umsetzung von Building Information Modeling (BIM) in Deutschland nur ein sehr überschaubarer Kreis von Stakeholdern aus Bauwirtschaft und Planern verantwortlich, welcher der Branche sinnvolle Wege aufzeigt, um sich zu vernetzen und eine Zusammenarbeit in einem Umfeld des Vertrauens aufzubauen. Das übergeordnete Ziel ist eine integrierte, partnerschaftliche Arbeitsweise über den gesamten Lebenszyklus von Bauwerken. Aufgrund der damit geschaffenen Offenheit und Transparenz bei der Abwicklung, fällt im Kontrast zur traditionellen Herangehensweise das Wir besonders ins Gewicht:
BIM fordert und fördert die Zusammenarbeit, Partnerschaft
Lebenszyklusbetrachtung von Projektbeginn an
Gemeinsame vertraglich geregelte Zieldefinition und Aktion
Gemeinschaftlicher Projekterfolg und -verantwortung
Offener, transparenter Umgang mit Problemen und Schwächen
Strategische Projektvorbereitung sowie ausführliche Planung der Planung
[Quelle: BMVBS, BIM Leifaden für Deutschland]
Netzwerke verschiedener und doch gut miteinander verflochtener Cluster mit kompetenten Planern, Bauunternehmen, Lieferanten und Hochschulen, die als Treiber wirken, werden gebraucht. Wichtig ist, kluge Entscheider, Ressourcen, Ideen und Talente zusammen zu führen, um den Anforderungen der Projekte von morgen gerecht werden zu können. Nachhaltiger, sozial verantwortlicher, kreativer und innovativer. BIM ermöglicht der Bauwirtschaft, sich den neuen Herausforder

How to Create a Rock Star BIM Execution Plan (BEP) and MPDT* (Responsibility ...Fabio Roberti
A BIM Execution Plan (BEP) is a valuable and necessary part of any project in the AEC sector. It is essential when the team needs to work in a collaborative process to ensure that everyone on the project is aligned with the project objectives. A correctly implemented BEP will ensure the project goals are clear and agreed by the wide project team. Communication is a key component of all construction projects. To be successful, it requires many different people working together to achieve the client requirements. A well-built BEP requires the project team to work together and communicate from the very beginning to the completion of the project. This class will explain the importance of the BEP and demonstrate how to create an efficient BEP for post-contract-award which will include the Model Production & Delivery Table (MPDT). The post-contract-award BEP sets out how the information required in the Employer's Information Requirements will be provided.
Sustainability In Government - Bim Webinar4 All of Us
CROSS-WHITEHALL SUSTAINABILITY PRACTITIONERS FORUM
ADDRESSING THE BENEFITS OF BIM - SPONSORED BY FORGE TRACK LTD
We kick-started the series with a webinar for the Cross-Whitehall Sustainability Practitioners Forum. These webinars will provide the practitioners with the latest information, knowledge and policy announcements on a range of sustainability issues and was decided to launch this series by addressing BIM. BIM is a new requirement for government which Sustainability Practitioners will need to be aware of and one that will help Departments in the achievement of the mainstreaming commitments outlined below.
The Green Government Commitments require transparency and, in addition to the above requirements, must address the following areas: climate change adaptation; biodiversity and natural environment; procurement of food and catering services; sustainable construction; and staff wellbeing and quality of life. The Government Construction Strategy published May 2011, set out the framework for a range of workstreams, all of which have the ultimate aim of reducing the cost of government construction projects by 15-20 per cent by the end of the current Parliament.
The BIM task group are supporting and helping deliver the objectives of this strategy and the requirement to strengthen the public sector's capability in BIM implementation with the aim that all central government departments will be adopting, as a minimum, collaborative level 2 BIM 2016.
This webinar examined how BIM can support central government departments in their achievement of collaborative level 2 Bim by 2016 and highlight the great work already taking place within this field.
Building Information Modeling (BIM)
BIM is a process of generating and managing building data during its complete
lifecycle, from conceptual design through operation of the building
Building information modeling(BIM) is an integrated
workflow that enables architects, engineers, and
builders to explore a project digitally before it is built.
BIM is Evolution not Revolution
The creation and use of coordinated,
internally consistent, computable
information about a building project in
BIM is a modern technology and associated set of
processes to produce, communicate, and analyze
‘building models’…..
• ‘Digital representations’ of the building components that follow
parametric rules, which can be manipulated in an intelligent
fashion
• Carry ‘computable graphic and non‐redundant data attributes’
which are consistent, coordinated which can be viewed
BIM for Building Services Engineering - HKIE seminar in 2014Stephen Au
As building construction project becomes more complex and shorter time to market. By adopting the BIM, simulation, mobile and cloud computing technology, an integrated collaboration platform allows owners, architects, engineers, constructors and sales & marketing working together at any place and any time to get the instant correct information with controlled business process. This can greatly improve design innovation, productivity, safety and cost effectiveness under the GREEN design-build-sell-maintain lifecycle. This seminar will focus on how to use BIM for building services from design, build to facility management.

With the UK government insisting on the use of Building Information Modelling (BIM) for all their projects starting from 2016, the use of the BIM process will become inescapable. Although BIM has been available for many years this decision has prompted a surge of BIM requests within the construction industry. This has filtered through to the lighting industry and many companies are establishing BIM teams to deal with this influx.
This paper takes a look at what BIM is, the benefits it can bring in an ideal world and some of the issues to getting started. It will look at the queries that are being raised from different users within the lighting industry and what resources are available to deal with these queries.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Of the 1,000 respondents to the national survey, almost 19 out of 20 expected
to be using bim within the next five years;
80% of those who had already adopted bim agreed that it increases the coordination of
construction documents; while 65%said it delivered cost efficiencies.
Why BIM?
Bim adoption more than doubles

11. • 2D communication in a 3D world
• Traditional problems
• Sustainable design and energy performance compliance
• Building performance regulation
• Waste within construction
• Latham / Eagan Reports
• Best practice
Why BIM?
12. Government Construction Strategy
• 20% reduction in costs targeted for UK construction
procurement
• BIM confirmed as an essential element in the reduction
waste within construction.
• BIM working party strategy published June 2011.
• Begin phased roll out to all government projects from
summer 2012
• Introduction of Construction Operations Building
Information Exchange (COBie 2.4)
• All UK public funded construction projects will require
fully collaborative 3D BIM (level2) as a minimum by
2016.
14. BIM Technology – Architecture
BIM technology is being developed by a range of major CAD vendors
but is represented by three main staples for Architecture;
Revit Suite
NavisWorks
Grahisoft Archicad
Vecterworks
All-Plan
Microstation
Bentley Architecture Many More BIM packages for
Environmental and Structural
analysis
17. • Conceptual design
• Central Source of information
• Multi-Discipline Integration
• Early detection of conflict
BIM Advantages – Designers
18. • Pre-construction assessment
• Reduction in no. of RFIs
• Fewer field coordination issues
• Quantity/cost tracking improvements
• Greater potential for off-site fabrication
• Reduce Risk
BIM Advantages - Construction
19. • Asset management
• Facility maintenance and operation
• Life cycle of buildings
• Single Source of Information
• BIM virtual building and FM Software synchronisation
• Health & Safety
BIM Advantages – FM

22. Government has given BIM a big boost, but;
• Currently still Confusion
• BIM seen as an obstacle not an enabler
• We are adapting BIM to fit current practices
• ‘My’ BIM
• Varied Adoption
• Software collaboration needs to Improve
• Definition of BIM is not important it is about understanding what BIM
Enabled Technology can do for you.
• We need to understand BIM Better
BIM -Currently
23. BIM Definition
Chuck Eastman, The BIM Handbook
…“an intelligent simulation of architecture.” To enable us to achieve integrated
delivery“
BIM alone fails to achieve Level 3 objectives.
Only when we have a proper working understanding of BIM will we be able to
begin the next step of integrated BIM (iBIM) and Integrated Project Delivery (IPD)
iBIM / Integrated Project Delivery (BIM Level 3)
24. • Only Suitable for Large projects?
• Just 3D CAD?
• Can’t Do refurbishment?
• Costs too much?
• Takes too long?
• Doesn't Suit Our Process?
BIM POSSIBLE?
25. Project Examples – Oldham BSF
Oldham BSF: North Chadderton School & Sixth Form
Contractor: Balfour Beatty
Value : £20m
Consultants:
Clarke Bond (SE)
RPS Group (M&E)
Arup (Fire)
26. Advantages
• BIM Implementation project
• Single source of information – Co-ordination
• Ability to adapt design during all stages
• Able to produce drawn information quickly
• Automated schedule / take off
• Worksharing environment
• Contractor using BIM for Co-ordination
Disadvantages
• Consultants were not using BIM
• Software learning curves for design team.
Project Examples – Oldham BSF
33. • Planning Implementation Is key
• Develop a sound, comprehensive implementation strategy,
• Assemble the right team,
• Select a suitable starting project
• Understand the learning curves
• Understand Cost and Benefits to business
• ROI –calculators
• Hardware requirements
BIM – Implementation
34. • Improve design quality
• Improve communication
• Single source of Information
• Increased collaboration with partners
• Reduction in waste
• Opportunities for re-use of data post construction
Summery- Why use BIM?
35. The introduction of BIM is not about the adoption of any software; it is probably
the most significant change process you will ever make
Conclusions
• Industry is developing clear best practice with BIM
• More Open about current BIM adoption.
• BIM definition is not important it is about understanding the benefits of a
BIM Environment
• Once we are BIM enabled then we can move to Social and iBIM
• Working procedures need to adapt to enable iBIM/IPD
• Real risk that not having BIM experience could exclude you from future
projects
36. Questions?
Darlington top 5
• How will BIM effect construction SME’s ?
• What support can the government offer SME’s (training and education
being a priority)
• What software tools are appropriate for BIM in a contracting environment?
• Will all sub-contractors to the main contractor be expected to use BIM
tools? If they don’t have them – how will the main contractor share
information?
• What is the cost of up-skilling and ‘tooling up’ in readiness for BIM?
• How quickly will businesses see a return?
