BIMMEPWhite Paper

Designing for efficiency – Optimising HVAC and electrical systems for sustainability

As heating, cooling, and lighting are the main contributors to the life-cycle carbon emissions of a building, improving their energy efficiency during operations is essential to sustainable construction. 

BIMWhite Paper

An Oslo downtown construction project takes a holistic view on sustainability

The sustainability profile of Økern Portal in downtown Oslo stretches from energy-efficient heating and innovative sensor technology for energy savings to rooftop beehives and indoor biophilic design. This BREEAM-certified commercial building is built to be smart, efficient, and green. Økern Portal was completed in 2021, and over 80 000 square meters of sustainable building is […]

MEP design tools for every work stage

Incorporating BIM tools can help the work of MEP designers at each stage of a building project. Advanced functions allow designers to automate design tasks, improve project quality, and connect their work with others and be involved from the establishment of requirements and guidelines during early project planning to the final installation of finished systems during construction.

What are the differences and similarities of construction project work stages in different countries?

BIMWhite Paper

Introducing: BIM Guidebook for MEP designers

In the new BIM Guidebook for MEP Designers we explore how BIM workflows empower MEP design work during each project work stage from conception to construction. The guidebook also explains how advanced design software, such as MagiCAD, use the data in a BIM model for intelligent digital engineering functionalities.

Milestones in European BIM Adoption

When examining the history of BIM adoption we see that it starts with a vision for digitalisation supported by technological innovations and development. This was then followed by industry initiatives on standardisation and country specific BIM mandates. The innovation and development of BIM technologies has been led by key software providers which followed different strategies. […]

Investigating key challenges in BIM adoption

Building Information Modelling (BIM) has transformed the building industry, improving productivity profitability and project quality. However, transitioning to BIM is not always as easy as it sounds and there are some existing challenges that may hold back BIM on the level of national programs, project disciplines, and even individual companies.

BIMWhite Paper

The different phases of BIM adoption in Europe

Building Information Modelling (BIM) has already had a transformative impact on the practices, efficiency, and results of the building industry. Digitalisation has automated routine tasks, empowered creative efforts, and produced financial and quality benefits at every stage of a building project. Subsequently, many countries have taken concrete steps to establish official guidelines and mandates for BIM technology use in construction.
