Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

For people in the construction and civil engineering communities who have not yet encountered building information modeling (BIM), Barnes and Davies explain in fairly simple language how it can be applied in practice, beginning with theory and moving to case studies. After an overview they cover how BIM works; incorporating and managing it; design liability and ownership; contracts; and insurance, liability, and risk. The case studies involve a large underground railway station and precast concrete fabricators. A sample COBie (construction operations building information exchange) is also presented and explained.

He has a Masters in the Built Environment and a wide and extensive range of practical and commercial experience.
