The speakers at the BIM Congress
BIM Congress in the Gesellschaftshaus Palmengarten

On November 10, the BIM Congress Germany will take place at the Gesellschaftshaus Palmengarten in Frankfurt am Main.

BIM will prevail and change planning and construction in Germany in the long term. This is undisputed and politically desirable. It is also undisputed that architects can play a central role in this process. This makes it all the more important to be fully informed about the new planning method in good time. The BIM Congress Germany – organized by GRAPHISOFT – answers key questions such as:

– How does BIM differ in concrete terms from conventional planning practice?
– Does BIM also pay off in small and medium-sized offices?
– What does BIM mean for office organization?
– What impact does BIM have on fees, liability and copyright?
– What investments in hardware, software and training will an office have to make when implementing BIM?
– What does Open BIM mean and how does it work?

No theoretical treatises, but practice-oriented information: The BIM Congress is an event by architects for architects. Based on specific projects, the speakers will report on their experiences with the introduction of the new planning method. The method, implementation and added value of BIM will be discussed – both in different project phases and with regard to different office and project sizes. In addition, legal issues relating to BIM and HOAI will be addressed – and client representatives will explain their view of the new planning method. Plenary and breakout sessions will cover the entire range and complexity of the topic. A panel discussion, in which representatives from politics and the construction industry, BIM proponents and skeptics will have their say, will conclude the all-day event.

An interesting addition to the congress program is the accompanying trade exhibition, in which GRAPHISOFT, together with various cooperation partners, will demonstrate the Open BIM workflow: from the architectural model to quantity and cost calculation, scheduling, structural design, building services and energy assessment.
