Achieving your sustainability goals with BIM

Activity: Talk or presentation typesInvited talk

11/07/2024

The history of Building Information Modeling (BIM) goes back several decades, but its benefits really began in the mid-2000s, when digitalization began to transform construction. BIM is an information management process based on collaborative work and digital technologies. It uses a shared digital representation of an asset to facilitate design, construction, and operation processes and provide a reliable basis for decision-making. Thanks to pre-planning during the design and construction phases, it is possible to achieve greater efficiency and have comprehensive information in the delivery phase. BIM is based on collaboration between engineers, owners, architects, and contractors in a three-dimensional virtual construction environment (common data environment), and shares information across these disciplines.

This structured and collaborative environment is also essential to implement data-driven sustainability programs, which allow greater transparency, efficiency and control of building systems. This webinar will explore how these fundamental elements of BIM can help drive and improve sustainability in the built environment.

What you'll learn at this event:

- What is BIM (Building Information Modeling)?
- How the use of BIM and a common data environment promotes collaboration and improves efficiency in the construction process.
- How BIM can help drive and achieve your sustainability mandate.
