Description
The answer? A large development project. Coordinating large projects is always a challenge, much of the challenge coming from the coordination of people and not always from the technical complexity of the design. The basis of this class is the speaker's experience at the sharp end of the process on a �1.1 billion mixed-use development comprising 15,000 residential units; 150,000 square meters of commercial and academic research space; and associate shops and community facilities. As part of this class we will look at the whole workflow, from receiving data, collating data, and building infrastructure models in AutoCAD Civil 3D software, through reviewing and federating models in Navisworks project review software and resolving coordination challenges. The class will step through the processes and workflows, highlighting the critical milestones when processes need to be set. We will then look at ways to improve coordination, and we'll point out the pitfalls that can stop effective coordination.

Intervenant
- IPIan PhilpottIan Philpott graduated from Oxford Brookes University in 1996 with a bachelor's degree in civil engineering. Since graduation, Ian has worked for both contractors and consultants on a wide variety of infrastructure-related projects. He now specializes in 3D modeling of complex infrastructure projects and championing the use of 3D modeling and Building Information Modeling (BIM) processes throughout a team based in 5 U.K. office locations. Ian also chairs URS Corporation's U.K. and Ireland AutoCAD Civil 3D Steering Group, which is responsible for developing the standards, templates, and workflows for the use of AutoCAD Civil 3D software. Ian has just completed Phase 1 of a £1.1 billion mixed-use development in which he used AutoCAD Civil 3D software and Navisworks project review software to coordinate the design of the highways, infrastructure, drainage, utilities, and external building interfaces. He has now moved on to a major urban-regeneration project, where he is responsible for project-wide BIM processes and model coordination across various disciplines.
