Welcome to my new blog!
Beginning in November 2011 I accepted the role of Revit/BIM
mentor in the Irvine office of KTGY Group. The position includes a broad range of
responsibilities including project work, Revit technical support, and
mentoring.
I’ve decided – or been inspired – to create this new blog as
an additional means of communicating and documenting the activities and
accomplishments of everyone involved in this effort.
KTGY is a multi-disciplinary firm with more than 150 employees. Its practice areas include single and multi-family housing, retail, hospitality, workplace and interior design. The firm has just marked its twentieth anniversary with a
grand Founders Day celebration, attended by all six of the original partners
along with the practice leaders of its offices in Santa Monica, Oakland, Denver
and Washington D.C.
The primary purpose of the blog is to keep everyone in the
company informed of our progress toward the goals and objectives that have been
set for implementation of Building Information Modeling.
Secondarily, it is my intention that the discourse will serve as
a case study for the process of transition from a successful and profitable CAD
workflow to full implementation of BIM.
I intend to make these discussions personal, informative and
entertaining, and will include anecdotes and insights from my long career as an
aficionado of architectural technology and BIM provocateur.

Great initiative.
ReplyDeleteFor those who read French, here is a good explanation of BIM - IFC : http://www.rhino4you.com/1/bim_ifc_maquette_3d_383350.html, and what the French call the digital model/sketchup/mockup (maquette numérique).
