The bright future and exciting possibilities of BIM
Many architects and engineers regard BIM as a disruptive force, changing the way building professionals design, build, and ultimately manage a built structure. With its emphasis on continuing advances in BIM research, teaching, and practice, Building Information Modeling: BIM in Current and Future Practice encourages readers to transform disruption to opportunity and challenges them to reconsider their preconceptions about BIM.
Thought leaders from universities and professional practice composed essays exploring BIM's potential to improve the products and processes of architectural design including the structure and content of the tools themselves. These authors provide insights for assessing the current practice and research directions of BIM and speculate about its future. The twenty-six chapters are thematically grouped in six sections that present complementary and sometimes incompatible positions:
Design Thinking and BIM
BIM Analytics
Comprehensive BIM
Reasoning with BIM
Professional BIM
BIM Speculations
Together, these authors provide stimulating ideas regarding new directions in building information modeling.

Building information modelling (BIM) is revolutionising building design and construction. For architects, BIM has the potential to optimise their creativity while reducing risk in the design and construction process, thus giving them a more significant role in the building process. This book demonstrates how innovative firms are using BIM technologies to move design away from the utilitarian problems of construction, engaging them in a stunning new future in the built environment.
Whereas recent books about BIM have tended to favour case–study analyses or instruction on the use of specific software, BIM Design highlights how day–to–day design operations are shaped by the increasingly generative and collaborative aspects of these new tools. BIM strategies are described as operations that can enhance design rather than simply make it more efficient. Thus this book focuses on the specific creative uses of information modelling at the operational level, including the creative development of parametric geometries and generative design, the evaluation of environmental performance and the simulation and scheduling of construction/fabrication operations.
This book also engages BIM s pragmatic efficiencies such as the conflict checking of building systems and the creation of bills of quantities for costing; and in so doing it demonstrates how BIM can make such activities collaborative.
Throughout, projects are used to illustrate the creative application of BIM at a variety of scales. These buildings showcase work by fi rms executing projects all over the world: SHoP Architects and Construction (New York), Morphosis (Los Angeles), Populous (London), GRO Architects (New York), Reiser + Umemoto (New York), Gensler (Shanghai) and UNStudio (Amsterdam).

Dear Moderator BennyP can I ask for something?
I need Italian software to do my work - I have to do my work in Italian software.
Can I ask Italian users for Enexsys Winstrand??
I know It is not in English language but I need it urgently.
Please help Itallian user and dear BennyP don`t remove my post.
I need this software very urgently.
The mixed building technology allows to utilise the best performance of all structural materials available such as steel, concrete, timber and glass.Engineers of steel structures in practice are often faced with the question of economical design of steel to concrete joints, because some structural elements, such as foundations, stair cases and fire protection walls, are optimal of concrete. A gap in knowledge between the design of fastenings in concrete and steel design was abridged by standardized joint solutions developed in the INFASO project, which profit from the advantage of steel as a very flexible and applicable material and allow an intelligent connection between steel and concrete building elements.
The requirements for such joint solutions are easy fabrication, quick erection, applicability in existing structures, high loading capacity and sufficient deformation capacity. One joint solution is the use of anchor plates with welded headed studs or other fasteners such as post-installed anchors. Thereby a steel beam can be connected by butt straps, cams or a beam end plate connected by threaded bolts on the steel plate encased in concrete.

The Building and Construction Procurement Guide – Principles and Options (‘the Guide) consolidates current jurisdiction-specific approaches to procurement and contracting of civil (road and bridge) and non-residential building works and services into a single overarching framework.
The Guide defines a series of methods, processes and principles that have been designed to reduce inconsistency in member agencies’ approaches to procurement and contracting, and responds to a variety of issues raised by industry.
