The ambition of CBIM is therefore to educate researchers in the development of a set of novel and disruptive BIM technologies that will automate the generation and enrichment of digital twins, improve the management, security and resilience of BIM-enabled processes, and boost the industrial uptake of BIM across sectors and disciplines by training these researchers to valorise and exploit their work. Interview with CBIM project coordinator Prof. Rafael Sacks Building Information Modelling On Line School will run from 7-11 December 2020 CBIM Kick off meeting held via zoom, on 20 July 2020, with all CBIM members:
When placed on the cloud, the digital twins can serve as a resilient and integrated repository of all asset data throughout their life-cycle. Such a repository is a key enabler in this sector of all upcoming IT waves, such
as cloud computing, data analytics, participatory sensing, and smart infrastructure.
The potential benefits have attracted interest from a wide array of end-users whose interests span from early design phases to operation and asset management, and from roads and bridges to industrial off-shore facilities.
This has led to aggressive market penetration in the last decade. However, the full potential of BIM is currently exploited only in a fairly narrow range of applications.
This is mainly due to the lack of trained scientific personnel capable of understanding the value of BIM and creating the link between digital twins and possible applications.
This new generation of researchers can play a key role in the widespread implementation of BIM products and processes dedicated to digitising our built infrastructure and managing our assets better to yield massive gains in sustainability, productivity and safety.
CBIM ESRs (Early-Stage Researchers) – We are all here!
We are pleased welcome all fellow ESR cohorts.
The CBIM program has officially started its research endeavor at various hosting institutions, and we are all excited, energized, and extremely interested in working together. All 14 ESRs are from different parts of the world, bringing unique background and significant experiences to each research area.
