What this course is NOT .

Train you to be Revit / Naviswork Experts

Students MUST be familiar (minimum) at Elementary skills to be effective in the LABs

Autodesk Revit / Naviswork will be used in LABs

Experience the Benefits and Results from BIM Experiment the complexity encountered in BIM Modeling in the capacity of a CONTRACTOR

Appreciate how the resolution can be managed

Strongly encourage you to download Student Edition to aid you in your education

Challenges & Opportunities

Productivity Comparison among Industry

Compare against other industry

Lack of big scale automation High demand for resources Less predictability to delivery dates

Buffer 6months or more into project

Continue to be expensive why?

Challenges & Opportunities

Business Process Re-engineering

What is BIM to you? Not about a tool Methodology Impact business processes big and small BIM Implementation

3 months? 6 months? 5 years? Should you pick a small project to start ?

Start with a purpose and measureable deliverable

Challenges & Opportunities

Eco-friendly & Sustainable Construction

On 2 December 2009, the Singapore government announced that Singapore will reduce its carbon emissions by 16% below 2020 business-as-usual levels

Class Exercise
1. 2. 3. Briefly describe how BIM can help you in the Early Construction Stage (Pre-Construction)? Discuss 2 aspects where BIM-4D can be useful for the Contractors? Todays workflow in drawings communication for the Construction Industry is considered chaotic and unproductive. BIM technology has been adopted by some organizations in hope to help unify this communication.

Explain how BIM can make this possible. You can support your answers with before and after illustrations.
