The next phase of UK BIM adoption

Editorial Type: News     Date: 10-2014    Views: 2855   




The AEC (UK) committee has announced their intentions to update and expand the AEC (UK) BIM documents in line with the initiatives that are taking place in the UK construction industry.

Chair of the AEC (UK) committee, Nigel Davies said, "Our aim has always been to provide software-focused application of the British Standards, and now more than ever, as BIM adoption becomes commonplace, a unified approach to digital authoring tools is increasingly important. The focus of BIM has moved on in even just the last two years since version 2 was published."

The AEC (UK) priority then was primarily directed at guidance for building consistent models, now it is far more concerned with interoperability and collaboration, a stance borne out by the publication of guides for Revit, AECOsim Building Designer, ArchiCAD and the forthcoming Vectorworks version, along with the appointment of ArchiCAD and IFC expert, Rob Jackson, to the committee.
