Agenda

• Current Design Challenges • Industry Trends • What is IPD and BIM • BIM Benefits • K-12 BIM Case Studies • BIM In Action •Q&A Architecture Strand

Key Objectives 1.

Understand what industry trends are driving BIM adoption.

2.

Understand how BIM is different than CAD.

3.

Understand the benefits of BIM: - to the design process - to the construction project - to the building owner

4. Architecture Strand

Current K-12 Case Studies using BIM: - Prototype Campuses- VVUHSD - Additions - Hook M.S. - Modernizations - Cucamonga M.S. - New High School Campus - Fontana H.S. #5 - New High School Campus Interiors - Yorba Linda High School

Design Challenges • • • • • •

Drawing coordination Managing design changes Analyzing design Visualizing design Controlling cost Controlling schedule

Architecture Strand

Reasons for Schedule Overruns

Lack of time and budget for pre-design Inadequate scope definition Quality of design documents Coordination, communication, collaboration problems

Architecture Strand

Causes of Cost Overruns 1.

Incomplete drawings

2.

Poor pre-planning process

3.

Escalating costs of materials

4.

Lack of timely decisions by Owners

5.

Excessive change orders

Industry Trends Architecture Strand

Business environment is changing

Increase in design-build

Sustainable design challenging conventional building practices

New integrated practice processes

Risk transfer from owner to AEC partner

Architecture Strand

Consider this:

Architecture Strand

Buildings are increasingly more complex

Higher quality product demanded

Clients expect tighter schedules and lower costs

Result for architecture firms is increased competition and lower margins

Trends

Sustainable Design Building energy consumption: 40% -70% 40% of raw materials 12% of fresh water 30% of greenhouse gases 136T/Y of waste Emerging Standards & Policies

• Turner Construction • $18 Billion Revenue

- PROJECT: Northern

Kentucky University – Arena - $60m, 18 month construction - “No time for experiments” - None of the MEP subcontractors had worked Architecture in 3D before Strand - Architect was learning Revit - Turner paid Architect to create model and involved Architect in coordination

• Turner Construction -

-Traditional process: 2% constructability related change orders* -BIM: zero constructability related change orders so far

-Week 1 – This will never work -Week 3 – The system is working -Week 5 – Where can we buy Architecture NavisWorks? -Week 7 – Can we do more Strand projects with you?

Architecture Strand

Control over design decisions Limit the risk of cost and schedule growth Limit cost of design changes Promote innovation and value engineering Shortest schedule for overall project delivery Initial cost versus lifecycle cost Control over construction quality Limit claims for additional cost Limit construction aggravation Meet overall expectations Source: ENR, April 3rd 2006 By: Debra K, Rubin

The Owner’s are interested in BIM… for “cost control and cost certainty”

For construction of complex buildings, this opportunity can improve outcomes, including cost control and cost certainty, accuracy of construction, quality, and functionality of the completed building. These are the outcomes we are interested in as an owner. —Michael Bade, AIA, Director, Capital Programs University of California San Francisco

Architecture Strand

BIM and Integrated Delivery The door to such innovation is being opened by new technology such as building information modeling (BIM), and designers are being pushed through by growing pressure from clients to work smarter and faster. If adopted widely in the U.S., integrated delivery could easily produce savings of 5% to 10% per project, or between $50 and $100 billion annually. ENR 5/5/2007 Scott Simpson is senior principal and managing director of KlingStubbins, Cambridge, Mass.

Summary of AGC Contractor’s Guide to BIM

“The use of BIM & 3D modeling allows for the optimization of lean construction”. “BIM enables all disciplines to be involved from the project’s inception by sitting together at one table in developing the project design.” “The use of BIM, for those who react quickly, will propel them beyond their competition in monumental proportions.” The Associated General Contractors of America

The Model is More than 3D • BIM is a Paradigm Shift • Isolation to Collaboration • Everyone working together • Benefit: • Evidence-based Design = Knowledge • Early Knowledge = Good Decisions • Good Coordination = Less Risk • Fewer Change Orders = Less Conflict Architecture Strand

Model Improves all Phases • Initial planning to facility operations • Owner “owns” the model • Owner’s Rep integrates all modeling
