At the heart of the facilities industry transformation is building information modeling. The buildingSMART alliance is coordinating the industry transformation and with industry support is putting the necessary standards in place to ensure information interoperability from the inception of a project throughout its life. The buildingSMART alliance Conference is your opportunity to catch up on the latest advances in building information modeling (BIM). Find out how BIM is supporting a multitude of transformational efforts in sustainability, durability, security, energy optimization, improved safety, environmental and raw material stewardship, occupant productivity and overall life cycle analysis and budgeting. There are threads related to best practices with case studies, education, green BIM, BIM and GIS, and standards including information about the first consensus National BIM Standard – United StatesTM, the latest version of the United States National CAD StandardTM and efforts related to Industry Foundation Classes version 2x4 and its move toward adoption as a full ISO standard.
The buildingSMART alliance Conference is a part of the National Institute of Building Sciences' 2010 Annual Meeting and Ecobuild America.
