Welcome to BIM ThinkSpace

There are accelerating changes affecting the Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) Industry; changes that are caused by technology, emerging standards and process changes. The amount of movement and its witnessed effects are potent, exciting and wide ranging.

This BIM ThinkSpace is for those interested in discussing Building Information Modelling (BIM), Interoperability, Process Integration, nD Modelling and related topics. I hope this space instigate a discussion between like-minded professionals and topic researchers.

If you find this blog intersting and would like to share your thoughts through it, please let me know and I'll add you as an author.
