Integrated Project Delivery: Next-Generation BIM for Structural Engineering
The continued growth of Building Information Modeling (BIM) has prompted new contractual arrangements, of which the best known is Integrated Project Delivery (IPD). In IPD, early contributions of downstream partners provide crucial credibility of design information, and require that fabrication knowledge be engaged much earlier in the process. What does this mean for structural engineers and fabricators? Also, what is the current state of BIM? In this session, the presenters—an engineer and an architect—will outline their firm's extensive experience with BIM in all design disciplines, as well as their ongoing efforts in working with contractors on BIM models. They will also outline the many "levels" of BIM—including space management and direct fabrication—and how the next steps in BIM maturation will involve going straight to the source, allowing engineering fabrication models to become part of the design Contract Documents. Attendees will leave the session with a new understanding of BIM, along with strategies to apply to their own projects.
