A building information model contains both graphical and non-graphical information, accurately linked, clearly defined and well structured. As stages progress and proposals develop, the graphical and non-graphical data builds in a shared digital space. This presentation provides an overview of the term “Level of Definition” with reference to objects, and managing and accessing data
BIMcloud provides a platform for collaboration on projects within the office and over the Internet. Multiple team members efficiently work on a single model, dramatically reducing the amount of data being transferred. Explains how a team can simultaneously work on a “Virtual Building”, with instant element reservation and communication tools.
Richard Petrie, Chief Executive of buildingSMART International presents the organisation and its chapters, open standards, bSDD and the developing of common sloutions for the construction sector.
CD March 2015 - Bentley presentation about current BIM thinkingComit Projects Ltd
Presentation delivered by Iain Miskimmin (COMIT chairman for Technology) about the current industry thinking with regards to BIM. Presented at the COMIT Community Day on 12th March 2015 in London.
OPEN BIM is a universal approach to the collaborative design, realisation, and operation of buildings based on open standards and workflows.
The Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) data model is intended to describe building and construction industry data. It is a platform neutral, open file format specification that is not controlled by a single vendor or group of vendors. It is an object-based file format with a data model developed by buildingSMART to facilitate interoperability in the architecture, engineering and construction industry, and is a commonly used collaboration format in Building information modelling based projects.
This presentation considered the function of BIM protocols in project documentation. It will consider the relationship of the BIM protocol with other project documentation such as construction contracts and consultant appointments. It will also consider the relationship of the BIM protocol with other BIM specific documentation such as Pre and Post Contract BIM Execution Plans.
Stephen Hamil's preview of the BIM Toolkit was a hit at Ecobuild 2015 - we've uploaded the presentation, in case you missed it or want to see it again. #BIMTookit

The emergence of virtual reality applications for architecture is becoming an integral part not just of presenting a design, but the BIM process too.
For many design-led industries, the biggest challenge is often convincing the client. By demonstrating the sensation of actually being inside a building prior to hand over makes VR a powerful tool for communicating design intent.

What is Level of Definition?
When creating an information model as part of the #BIM process, you would not expect to have all your data collated right from day one. The aim is to deliver the right information, in the right format, to the right people at the right time.
A building information model contains both graphical and non-graphical information, accurately linked, clearly defined and well structured. As stages progress and proposals develop, the graphical and non-graphical data builds in a shared digital space, known as a Common Data Environment (#CDE). The different amounts of data are termed Levels of Definition.

Revit software - the best tool for an architectNetCom Learning
Autodesk Revit enables you to plan a building and its components in 3D, annotate the model with 2D drafting elements, and view building details from the model’s database.
The Government Construction Strategy was published by the Cabinet Office in 2011, announcing that all centrally procured contracts should be compliant with BIM by 2016. The key objective of this approach is to reduce the capital cost and the carbon burden from the construction and operation of the built environment by a fifth. So how should a lighting engineer tackle building a digital street lighting information model?

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

GETTING THE MOST FROM STRUCTURED DATA
22. PRODUCT DATA TEMPLATES
WHAT ARE PRODUCT DATA TEMPLATES?
A product data template is simply a form that contains
standardised headings against which manufacturers
product information is placed. There is a different template
for each type of product.
>5700 TEMPLATES
26. “Manufacturers who supply digital information to the industry are encouraged to
make their information freely available in the form of a product data sheet which
as a minimum should respond to the NBS “data required” template and/or (where
appropriate) parametric 3D BIM objects aligned to this template.
Manufacturers and product data templates are not limited by the “data required
templates” in the BIM Toolkit and manufacturers can add further information to
identify their key selling points eg to support analysis etc.”
BIM TASK GROUP - PRODUCT DATA TEMPLATES
Extract from BIM Task Group News Letter no. 45 July 2015
27. PRODUCT DATA SHEETS
Made available via the NBS BIM Toolkit
• Useful for manufacturers to present product
information in a structured format.
• Useful for designers to collate and compare product
information.
29. PRODUCT DATA SHEETS
NBS Plus
• Over 600 manufacturers
• Maintained manufacturers product information made
available via:

39. • NBS recognised the lack of structure
and data consistency across all BIM
objects. As more and more assets are
being built with BIM the introduction
of this standard will revolutionise the
way in which we interact with the
information.
• To achieve consistency NBS has
produced a global standard for BIM
objects with a recognisable set of
criteria, to which all BIM objects can be
created.
NBS BIM OBJECT STANDARD
40. • This means you can select and use BIM objects
with confidence, knowing that you are working
with objects that are in the right format, contain
all the information you need and are compatible
with all platforms that you work across.
• Whether objects are authored by NBS or another
provider, by using this standard it ensures
consistency not only for you and the people you
work alongside but across the entire construction
industry.
• NBS National BIM Library objects work directly
with various BIM design tools and can be
seamlessly integrated into NBS Create software,
no other BIM object library can offer you this.
NBS BIM OBJECT STANDARD
41. “NBS BIM Object Standard is a game
changing initiative within the industry. It
is absolutely essential that we have
national standards that we can also
push internationally.”
“Giving us a consistent
structure for all the
information coming from
the project, it can only be
good for the construction
industry.”
“The industry looks for a standard, there is
nothing better than the accredited body of
RIBA and NBS to set that standard.”
NBS BIM OBJECT STANDARD
42. • NBS BIM Object Standard
• Providing consistency to BIM
objects and a Standard that
will transform BIM for the

Work with an organisation that can give you reach across all stages.
You can download product data templates from the BIM Toolkit site
Once you’ve downloaded your product data template it should be completed with your product information to create a product data sheet.
A product data sheet is simply the name given to the template once it has been completed with your specific product information.
To complete the template, list your products one by one and add your product information to the spreadsheet.

WHAT’S THE FUTURE FOR PRODUCT DATA TEMPLATES?
The product data templates available on the NBS BIM Toolkit represent the minimum product information that is needed for Level 2 BIM projects. These templates will be maintained and developed to include feedback from industry and align with the work of BIM4M2 and CIBSE. The templates will evolve to support the needs of our digital construction industry and to ensure they continue to align with the requirements of relevant European and international standards as well as mapping to open data exchange standards, such as COBie and IFC.
Of course it’s not all just about product data sheets
Product data templates enable the preparation of data that represents the minimum information required for level 2 BIM projects, but information in this form is not as useful to designers and specifiers as BIM objects, or structured product specifications such as NBS Plus.
Here’s how NBS handles BIM and specification.
NBS contains thousands of product specifications.
These are completed by designers to create project specifications.
NBS Plus places manufacturer product specifications within the NBS software.
This gives the specifier the choice of selecting a manufacturer product to replace the generic specification.
In combination with National BIM Library this guards against substitution.
At the click of a button the generic specification is replaced by the manufacturers product specification.
Library of objects all adhering to a common standard. This provides a library that is trusted and used by thousands od designers every day.
It’s a place where you can place your BIM content and make it work hard for you.
BIM objects are quite simply a digital replica of your real life product. These objects are placed into the project design by the architect.
If you have BIM objects for your products then architects will use them.
Hundreds of thousands of objects have been downloaded already.
We’ve got the largest linkedin active BIM community. These people are passionate about BIM.
We holds key positions in groups such as British Standards committees, International BIM organisations such as buildingSMART.
All downloads are tracked and we share details about that with you. Which orgs have used which products etc. So its not just about publication, it’s not about catalogues its about pre-sales.
Detailed usage analysis helps you win business.
It’s a means of getting your products in front of your customers in a digital environment.
It’s a means of getting your products specified, getting your products built.
We are the only library where all manufacturer objects comply with the latest version of the NBS BIM Object Standard.
This standard is very important…….it is essentially the means by which the benefits of BIM can be realised.
The availability of manufacturers’ BIM objects is an important factor in achieving success with BIM.
Objects need to be of the right quality, and connect with generic objects and associated technical specifications to support the digital plan of work – the construction professional’s workflow. Achieving standardisation between generic and proprietary information is what NBS has been doing for over 40 years, and its entire product range is geared towards supporting the digital plan of work.
Lots of organisations are using this standard – it ensures that objects work together when placed together into a virtual building.
We reviewed what was available already – there’s lots out there covering varying aspects and we wanted where possible to support the standards already in place and we also wanted to focus on creating a standard that was achievable and something that very much reflects the requirements of level 2 BIM
with support for open standards
and multiple platforms
So after lots of head scratching and deliberation we published the NBS BIM Object Standard last September.
It has been download by those outside of NBS thousands and thousands of times.
So the benefits of any standard and in this case the NBS BIM Object Standard can be seen in the ease of use of the objects in the bim environment.
Assurance - This standard fills a gap and sets a quality standard which will help clients procure buildings. Project Managers and Clients using the NBS BIM Object Standard can benefit as you can be confident that the quality of BIM objects within your project models is suitable and to a known standard.
Efficiency - Designers are creating objects themselves as there are not enough manufacturers objects in the market place. Using the standard will bring efficiency to your processes and lead to better designers and better buildings. Designers creating their own objects for practice and project-specific purposes can now do so to a common standard enabling greater collaboration, efficiency and more meaningful information exchange.
Quality - Manufacturers you really have a job to do. You have the challenge of creating objects and making them available at the right time in the right place all by 2016. This standard gives manufacturers wanting to create objects themselves a clear benchmark. It’s something that provides knowledge and enables manufacturers to attain and comply.
Compatibility – Just like we have with batteries, nuts and bolts, usb connectors, plug sockets, and in the not too distant future mobile phone chargers, standardisation brings compatibility. BIM objects need to work with each other
