Clients and BIM
Developing a comprehensive BIM brief before a project begins is the key to harnessing BIM’s power to transform how we build and maintain assets. Thinking why, what and how will help get the necessary information.
Transform with BIMinNZ 2019
The inaugural BIMinNZ conference, to be held on 8 May at Te Papa in Wellington, will showcase how building information modelling (BIM) is part of an industry-wide transition towards a digitally enabled future.
Saving lives through technology
An innovative project aims to reduce accidents and injuries on construction sites by using the power of BIM models to change behaviour in the way risks are managed, communicated and mitigated.
More bang for BIM buck
Building information modelling (BIM) makes big promises. So why do some projects fail to capture a decent return on investment in BIM processes? Insufficient collaboration is their undoing, but that’s easily fixed.
Digital twins and vibrating vests
A building in Auckland’s Wynyard Quarter has taken the use of digital technology on site to new heights. With cameras and sensors connected to a digital twin, the approach has boosted productivity and safety and helped with compliance issues.
Demand will drive adoption
Construction sector take-up of BIM in New Zealand is patchy as the perception is that the return on investment is lengthy. Selling the property sector on BIM’s benefits to them and their bottom lines could change this.
BIM and construction waste
Construction waste is a major issue facing New Zealand’s building sector. Now BIM has been used to develop an automated site layout planning system to manage construction waste.
