Covered the theory of BIM and its ability to improve collaboration, and how we are a bit of way off from where we should be I hope for ti to be a success. Lookedat using IPD, integrated project delivery and Lean Construction design amongst other things.Concluded with my own research for my dissertation which looked at the difference in using to 2D traditional CAD for precast concrete stair design, This was a live job i did whilst working in Rightcast. Once the job was complete, i started again to see if the workflow could be improved using a software such as Tekla precast.
