A huge addition to @TestFitInc platform! Moving from flat TX to hilly TN has made topo data super important when evaluating new development sites. Great work @CliftonHarness & team!

[Clifton Harness @CliftonHarness]

Starting today Topo data will ship with every copy of @TestFitInc. Its literally instantaneous with no performance drop

The most common problem @NigelPDavies and @EvolveBIM is asked to help with are aligning project coordinates.

Shocking at we still aren't able to stick information in the same location.

Today’s companies must live in 2 worlds simultaneously:

1. Exploitation: improving efficiency of existing business

2. Exploration: discovering new ways of working & entirely new businesses

continuously investing in the future while making new processes the norm

Avoid project hell with the “Holy Trinity” of construction data @gagagillen #BSL2020

[Joe Williams @vdcjoe]

Fantastic overview of UK BIM Framework and ISO standards from @DRossiter87 @BSI_UK including Dan’s Top 5 Bonus Standards! #BSL2020

[Joe Williams @vdcjoe]

Data transfer on jobsites without the #PowerOfStandards feels a bit like trying to use the wrong power adapter in another country. It’s one more #SharedPain we can relate to in #AEC @DigiConWeek #donglelife

Data is saving lives @SuffolkBuilds. Jit Kee Chin, Suffolk’s Chief Data Officer (yes, a GC has a data executive!) has overseen a 40% reduction in recordable incidents in a little over a year thanks to better data collection and transparency #accelerate19

[Joe Williams @vdcjoe]

.@LanceHosey bravely asks does ”designs” require “designers” in a future dominated by #AI. After all, nature, the universe’s oldest designer operates more like AI, iterating over time to find the most balanced solution to a problem #accelerate19

[Joe Williams @vdcjoe]

Using data from everyday sensors like thermostats & key cards, @ZGFArchitects visualizes post occupancy satisfaction of their designs contextually in 3D instead of the same old bar charts

[Joe Williams @vdcjoe]

.@andrewheumann makes the case for a new approach to #designautomation by working “task-oriented automation” into a human focused design process instead of trying to automate design of the entire building @WeWork #accelerate19

[Joe Williams @vdcjoe]

To prevent losing #sustainability during dreaded VE cuts late in the game, @susan_heinking & @PepperConstruct are educating owners with a visual tool to build #greenbuilding principles into a holistic view of project budgets #accelerate19

[Joe Williams @vdcjoe]

Using quick, simple videos @etroxel let’s the rest of @HMCArchitects know what’s new in Digital Practice and keep the company aligned, following the mantra: talk/tell/transform/together #accelerate19
