From the start, building information modeling (BIM) has primarily favored architects. However, there are BIM platforms with graphical modeling capabilities that can look deeply into a project’s timeline and determine real costs, materials and construction options. This session will offer insight into BIM from the contractor’s perspective and the factors driving industry interest in this technology. A panel of experts will discuss the current status and future direction; value-added services contractors can offer through BIM and for which owners are willing to pay; and the implications of the Government Service Administration’s adoption of BIM on all publicly funded projects.

This session will feature the landmark project for the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) BIM pilot program. The presentation will discuss solutions to collaborate and use of a sharable model so all project stakeholders can simultaneously visualize and analyze the design and detect clashes before construction.

Building Information Modeling offers significant opportunity to create efficiencies in cost engineering and estimating of project costs from inception onward, thereby reducing waste and lifecycle costs and improving sustainability of the facility. This session will discuss progress to date with the overall cost engineering picture as well as describing the model view for estimating.

This session will describe the progress on the National CAD Standard effort and identify how NCS is transforming to support output from a BIM. The standard is an essential part of NIBS’ cooperative effort with AIA, CSI, and the buildingSMART Alliance to ensure an open, interoperable information format and communication environment, including integration into the new National Building Information Model Standard (NBIMS) that will serve both the building community and the general public.

Neighborhood/site and community level factors are often critically important to the energy and environmental performance of individual buildings and the overall built environment. This session will examine and integrate the site design and planning issues that communities need to wrestle with in order to simultaneously 1) meet energy needs, 2) reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and 3) adapt to physical impacts of climate change. The session will discuss specific tools and strategies that planners, designers, and building professionals can use to address these goals and maximize the enduring value and last performance of the built environment.

This panel of experts will discuss major technologies and practices needed for reducing energy consumption in buildings, characterize current costs and performance, and roadmap the technology improvements needed as well as other barriers and strategic solutions to widespread market acceptance. It will look at the ramifications of recent DOE initiatives and other programs to advance energy performance of new and existing commercial buildings underway by industry associations, states, utilities, and the private sector.
