Ī joint team from GREENbimlabs, the institute for Building Design and Realisation and students in architecture at the RWTH Aachen demonstrated the combined potential of new technologies to get control on the complexity of building design with no compromise on the building sustainability. In the VdW magazine of the housing and real estate industry there is an interview with our CEO Stanimira Markova, who explains how digital technologies, BIM and data models are opening up a new era for sustainability in the construction industry and how many complex issues in building design and operation can be approached and solved systematically for the first time. In other words, how we ensure that every building is designed and built as a documented, secure, predictable, and cost-effective secondary storage facility for materials.
GREENbimlabs in the media : a 4-page article in Build.Ing - the German magazine for BIM and digital technologies for the construction industry - about our technology and how we use BIM models to evaluate and optimize the quality of material information and its documentation, material safety, the comprehensive building circularity and the avoidance of life cycle costs and risks in building operation in real time.
GREENbimlabs twice in the industry publication At one of the largest industry conferences in our region, in our workshop on BIM implementation and utilisation Mirela and Hristo from team GREENbimlabs demonstrated how data and algorithms can detect and tackle instantly weaknesses in the design process in a way, which allows for cost, time and resource consumption to be immediately recognised and drastically reduced and is out of reach in the classical, human power driven data collection and analysis. Design and decision automation by applying machine learning is what gives the power to identify and solve these design driven problems instantly, as soon as they appear in the process and eliminate them from activating after the begin of utilisation and operations. Stanimira was very vocal about her concerns related to the huge gap in the progress and state of digitalization in Germany in general and especially in the building industry, where Germany cannot even place in the top 20 worldwide and thus is missing out to the competition on the global market, but also on the huge potential for productivity, efficiency, cost and sustainability gains.The panellists stressed the need to fund demo projects, in which startups implement their technology in the practice and support to soften a culture of reluctance towards innovative and not completely mature solutions digital transformation in education as strongly stressed by Ranga Yogeshwar and especially Andera Gadeib, who has proven time and again, that there are many working solutions ready and waiting to be implemented and way overdue and to close the huge gap in the number of scientist and specialist, especially in the areas of digital technologies where Germany is currently educating less than 4% of the specialist worldwide.Ī building design process, based on the digitalisation of processes and of information flows as performed in a BIM based projects, is merely the first capabilities which will enable architects, owners and operators to comprehend, model and solve the urgent issues of time, cost and resource efficiency in the construction industry in its exploding complexity and interdisciplinary nature.
