BIM National Event Scotland


I'm currently preparing an event with Keppie Design (Richard Kuppusamy & Derek Jones) and Laing O'Rourke (John Byrne) which is aimed at educating the audience in the BIM process and what is it we are actually doing, the benefits and long term goals aligning with the Big BIM philosophy.





Buro Happold in collaboration with Keppie Design and Laing O’Rourke are coming together to discuss BIM (Building Information Modelling) to inspire debate and collaboration amongst the Scottish building design community.
BIM has been a buzzword for some months now in the UK and with the recent release of the UK Governments Construction Stategy where the Government will require fully collaborative 3D BIM (with all project and asset information, documentation and data being electronic) as a minimum by 2016, will we be ready? 
BIM National Event Scotland aims to show you what Buro Happold and co-speakers Keppie Design and Laing O’ Rourke have achieved in previous projects and what is being achieved in current projects through innovation.  We will also identify what all the fuss is about and what you need to know to ensure your projects run smoothly and are successful with the right design team onboard.
The event will take place in the inspiring surroundings of The Lighthouse, Scotland’s national centre for architecture and design.
To see latest developments or take part in discussions in the run up to this event please follow #BIMSCOTLAND on twitter.

Greeting Programs


I had always wanted to create a blog but just never sat down long enough to get it up and running!, well here it is.


Hopefully over the coming months I'll be able to share some useful knowledge and experiences as I surf through the world on the BIM wave.
