PAM CPD SEMINAR ON "PRACTICAL AFFORDABLE BIM FOR ARCHITECTS"

14 Sept 2022 | 10:00AM - 11:45AM | 4 LAM CPD POINTS

In times of economic downturn crisis when work in your office slows down, its time to learn a new skill that will give you a kick start when the economy finally recovers. BIM or Building Information Modelling is one of the new eTechnologies that is going to drive the Industry 4.0 of the construction Industry in the coming years.

This seminar is an introduction to what BIM programs are available in Malaysia, how much they cost and what are the challenges to adoption. CIDB survey shows that BIM adoption among Architects in 2019 is just 19%. Developers’ adoption is 23%, C&S Engineers 16% and Contractors 16%. Architects are the un-official leaders of the BIM adoption by virtue of their role as BIM model creator. If we do not start, there is seldom wider adoption by others. However, there is a growing number of D&B Contractors, Developers and BIM Managers who have started to take the Architects 2D and convert them to BIM models thereby usurping our roles as Industry leaders. Its time for us to take back this leadership role and at the same time upgrade our productivity.

Ar Chan SA is an early adopter of BIM and started using BIM in early 2002 in early versions of Autodesk Revit. He has since progressed to adopting other BIM software as the industry requirements and cost structures have changed. In this session, he will share his experiences for Architect’s keen to start BIM to be on the right footing.
