We explore the motivations behind the implementation of openBIM and its integral role in advancing the built asset industry. The built environment is immense and complex, it is also a huge responsibility. Our industry directly impacts it, designing, creating and maintaining it. In an era where what we all need is a better built environment, openBIM stands out as a key enabler. Together we will imagine a future where our industry works more effectively, efficiently and with more c...
Building Information Modeling (BIM) is transforming the built asset industry, yet firms of varying sizes—large, medium, and small—adopt BIM in distinct ways tailored to their unique resources and project demands. This session will explore BIM’s origins, current applications, and future directions as shared by representatives from three different firms. A significant focus will be on the importance of data integrity and governance, particularly as Artificial Intelligence (AI) becomes increasin...
The session will focus on considerations for deploying Artificial Intelligence in professional practice; identifying potential landmines and working on solutions from a privacy-first perspective. The talk will include a high-level overview that underscores the fundamental components that encapsulate an AI derived “solution” and delve into a practical, real-world example being tested on an active project.Topics Covered:• An illustrated example of BIM model query using AI• AI too...
Construction contracts are the same worldwide. While there are differences in language, classification, project delivery and other factors, the one common denominator is that a construction contract requires Drawings and Specifications. While geometric modelling software and specification software have both evolved over time, very little effort is currently being exerted in Canada to integrate them in document development processes.According to Arcadis global surveys, the #1 cause of c...
The three building blocks of digital building delivery are BIM, VDC and Digital Twins. There are various definitions for these three things, but based on my experience I define them as follows:- Building Information Modelling: a model with or without 3D geometry that hosts the information about building material, dimensions, connections, forces, power, flow rates, and all other elements required in each element that forms the building. - A key subset of understanding BIM is under...
Despite the rhetoric surrounding the use of building information modelling (BIM) to enhance collaboration by connecting people and data, the status quo is to work with proprietary solutions and closed file formats, limiting accessibility and interoperability. Additionally, the increasing complexity of projects in the Architecture, Engineering, Construction, and Operations (AECO) industry requires technology that integrates data at a range of scales, from asset to city, and beyond. To address ...
buildingSMART Canada will summarize the buildingSMART International Certification Program and its implementation in Canada. Attendees will gain insights into how the certification process works, including the steps required for individuals and organizations to achieve certification. We will explain the program's goals, benefits, and by adhering to internationally recognized standards, professionals and organizations in Canada can ensure enhanced collaboration, interoperability, and efficiency...

We will explore tangible ways in which to involve Indigenous people, especially youth, in a new ad, emerging infrastructure business sector.Dale Booth will lead you through a more fulsome understanding of Indigenous inclusion and participation on major infrastructure projects and how working with Indigenous companies, especially in the BIM modelling space, can greatly improve opportunities for everyone.Innovation 7 has been successful in the identification of training and work p...
This presentation provides a comprehensive exploration of the latest advancements in construction technology. From traditional methods to cutting-edge innovations, we'll examine how technology is reshaping the construction industry.Key topics will include:Historical Context: A brief overview of the evolution of construction techniques and the impact of technological advancements.Modern Construction Methods: Exploring traditional methods and how they've been enhance...
The presentation is geared towards providing an engaging discussion on what are the opportunities organizations adopting BIM would benefit, such as:Enhanced collaboration: BIM facilitates collaboration among all disciplines, stakeholders, and contractors, reducing errors and miscommunication using real-time data when applications to ensure all parties have access to the most current project information.Risk Management: Early detection of issues and clashes during design c...
As BIM, GIS, & Reality capture technologies begin to converge, the need for interoperability becomes ever more important and being accessible to all stakeholders. From design to construction, through handover and ownership, many different technologies are employed to create, capture, and maintain data sets. As more and more of this data is created in many different platforms and formats, the opportunity for missed information or breakdown in communication grows immensely. In this presenta...
