Why??? You want to deliver productivity and the bottom line: This presentation will explore, through practical examples, how a visual approach to building delivery and long term engagement can re-contextualise the value chain of our built world. 

The Missing Half of BIM - OIIIII!
Synopsis
BIM is a dichotomy between data and visuals. At its most basic, BIM is a representational visual model linked to an underlying object oriented database.

What started decades ago as a merging of design thinking in harmonious balance with technological development (that joyous union led to CAD - Computer Aided Design), has skewed over time to be heavily data focused as an industry (... an industry predicated on design, by the way... ), and the importance of the visual model has been obscured underneath layers of technicality. 

https://vimeo.com/386869823When I cast my gaze across the industry, It seems in many cases, it has become more about the BIM than the building!
So... does your BIM make you and your industry more productive
Data suggests NO!... (and we all trust our data).
How is the missing half of BIM leading to a decade long decline in productivity across our industry?... and how long is a productivity loss in our industry even sustainable?

This presentation will explore, through practical examples, how a visual approach to building delivery and long term engagement can re-contextualise the value chain of our built world.

Untitled #32 | LARUG April 2020


First off: JOIN US AND BE 1ST!!!
First to see ████'█ ███████ in █████ ████ :))

Giving us an exclusive world premiere of ███ing ███'█ ███ in █████ ████ will be two (at
least) of ADSKs own... So there's that ;)

https://youtu.be/DSqp-W1pWoUOur long time friend Scott D Davis and his colleague (and our ███ friend) Scott Buchanan will be ███ing us with all the █████ awesome ██████ in █████ and how we can all █████ more ██████ and ███ with the ███ ██████████ ███████'s!!!

If you can't make the Los Angeles Revit Users Group (LARUG) meetings in person or have never been, well now you can! Everyone's personal here is now right there (here)! Where? There! NO, HERE!!! 

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0057012/We may not be able to physically █████ each other or make ███ contact across the room, with that knowing look as if to say 'that █████ ███ has never worked but at least ████ made it shinier' but we can all turn on our cameras and have some virtual fun next Wednesday!!!

Now don't get me wrong, the 17+ years of live meetings have seen some great ███████ presentations and networking, have created some good friends, some ████, some ███████ and colleagues and a lot of inspirational work in AEC. 

For now we're obviously meeting virtually only and will continue until we can't.

Whether in Los Angeles (obv) or in Orange County (CA), the "Inland Empire", San Diego, San Francisco or even Bangalore... yes, we've done meetings in and from those locales and more, like Australia, New Zealand... but I digress;, well, we can't get together in person right now but we can all certainly join each other virtually and make it fun (the Scotts will be bringing the █████ ████ and ████ into how ██████ ████ and we will bring the questions & comments ;)
