HOK buildingSMART Twitter Chat - 13 Nov 2012
On Nov. 13, 2012, HOK’s buildingSMART Director, James Vandezande (@jvandezande), and St. Louis office buildingSMART Manager, Brok Howard, conducted a live Twitter chat to commemorate the firm's third annual "HOK buildingSMART Day."
Join us tomorrow at 12pm EST for a BIM+buildingSMART chat hosted by @jvandezande and @brokhoward #HOKBIMDay ow.ly/fdANY
(1/2) On this #HOKBIMday I am reminded of the time when a few HOK visionaries made a BIM pitch to HOK board in 2005 http://pic.twitter.com/yf312WQc
While waiting, feel free to check out our CEO's video series on the future of the bldg industry: bit.ly/SSSUbd #HOKBIMDay
- Thanks @HOKnetwork! HOK experts online include: @brokhoward @djivey @zoog @UnderNDA @DoURevit #HOKBIMDay
- Our "BIM Day" was first held at HOK on Nov 5, 2009 hoklife.com/2009/11/05/bim… #HOKBIMDay
- We are celebrating a belated BIM Day because of the Superstorm in the NE United States. #HOKBIMDay
- The day was selected by leaders of the firm to signal an official transition from CAD. #HOKBIMDay
- The Day helped those implementing BIM on projects understand that they had full support from management. #HOKBIMDay
- We are now moving into a new phase we call #HOKbuildingSMART - using the objectives of that international group. #HOKBIMDay
- #HOKbuildingSMART still includes BIM, but is more expansive in process scope. #HOKBIMDay
- As a reminder, let's avoid saying "BIM Model" and keep those #FluffyKittens alive and kicking! Now, let's get to some questions! #HOKBIMDay
- @denisepinto asked us to start w/ a 140-char personal definition of BIM #HOKBIMDay
- @denisepinto As a process, BIM is really the digital prototyping of a building - not digital drafting. #HOKBIMDay
- @denisepinto I like the NBIMS 3-part definition of BIM as a tool, process, and product. #HOKBIMDay
Product! That's interesting-- value for client = save time/$ + deliver better design. MT @jvandezande Tool, process, and product. #HOKBIMDay- @denisepinto BIM as Product? Yes. That is the next frontier...BIM deliverables. Most firms still use it to produce 2D drawings. #HOKBIMDay
- @denisepinto BIM as Product: We have new protocols developed to share our models without a full-blown disclaimer. #HOKBIMDay
@ayushx BIM is about the process/information exchange. As new tools develop the challenge is interoperability not one tool #HOKBIMDay
