Canada BIM Council The Canada BIM Council provides the entire Owner, Operator, Architectural, Engineering, Construction, Supply Chain & Manufacturer industry as the nation's only non-aligned, self-regulating Building Information Modeling (BIM) authority.

Our Mission is to provide all present and future industry stakeholders an advocacy, resource and standards council dedicated to supporting business, professionals, educators, purchasers of construction and related services in learning and applying best practices to the evolution of BIM in a Canadian context.

Our core management team has been assembled from cross-discipline leaders working throughout Canada: educators, architects, engineers, contractors, consultants and mixed trade association representatives. We are committed as a group of early adopters of BIM in Canada to deliver timely, non-proprietary, relevant and accurate information, programs and services to our membership

Canada BIM Council Strategic Objectives 2010

•  Develop Website portal for repository of BIM information in a Canadian context

•  Develop, maintain and communicate comprehensive data surrounding current BIM users, platforms and applications

•  Develop, test and communicate new BIM - IPD process from

conceptual design through facility maintenance (seven [ f ] protocol)

•  Create a valid Non-proprietary speakers bureau

•  Outreach to International BIM community

•  Outreach to educators, professionals, owners

•  Develop Alliance with BuildingSmartAlliance

Why Does the Construction Industry Need BIM ?

CAD – 40 Years - Antiquated Technology

Why Does the Architectural / Engineering / Construction Industry Need BIM ?


•  “...inefficiencies, mistakes and delays account for of the $650 billion spent on construction in America every year.”

•  "A typical $100m building project generates : technical drawings, legal contracts, purchase orders, RFIs and schedules.”

•  “Project managers build warehouses just to store them. FedEx reputedly garnered just shipping blueprints across America.“

•  “…the process of construction is itself repeated in its essentials from project to project. Indeed, research suggests that

Challenge: Process Waste New wiring: Construction and the Internet: Builders go online

Building Industry Process Challenges

•  Low efficiency •  Low productivity •  Unpredictable outcomes •  Sustainability •  New practice models •  Globalization •  Process Integration

 Outsourcing, supply chain   Integrated digital design  Hard schedules + tenders  Green building initiatives  Design build, DD+CD  Projects at distance  Early, integrated participation

“We must leverage emerging technologies to achieve these responses and move towards more predictable outcomes.

Legacy systems will kill us.”

BIM – 8 Years


“Building Information Modeling

…..an improved planning, design, construction, operation, and maintenance process using a standardized machine-readable information model for each facility, new and old, which contains all information created or gathered about a facility in a format useable by all throughout its lifecycle.” (NBIMS)

1D: Program Data (Word doc, Excel, etc)

2D: Related to 2 dimensions (AutoCAD)

BIM has four key elements for virtual construction solutions:

3D: Design (x , y & z coordinate, building representations)

4D: Scheduling (related to time)

5D: Cost (related to value)

6D: Life Cycle Management (Owner/FM)

•  These four elements are interlinked and analysis engines span several •  Sufficient research has not been conducted to finalize •  Need to identify the - who, what where and when. •  Strive to promote integrated BIM best practices


4D: Scheduling (related to time)

4D associates BIM objects with scheduling activities, construction planning and constructability analysis.

Everyone on the same page at any time with the 4D representation of the project in conjunction with traditional schedule GANTT charts.

•  Improved Project Coordination

•  Optimized Construction Sequencing

•  What-if Analysis and Change Management

•  Analyze Constructability and Improved Safety

Innovaya & Naviswork software supports MS Project, Primavera, and any 3D design program, implements powerful and sophisticated 4D construction planning functions, helping the entire project team to establish a shared vision and coordinate work tasks.


5D: Cost (related to value)

5D uses the BIM to perform cost estimating accurately, quickly, and intelligently by delivering objects from BIM applications to Excel, MC2 ICE and Sage Timberline.

•  Automatic Quantity Extraction

•  Intelligent Assembly/Item Takeoff

•  Automatic Estimation for the Entire BIM

•  Intelligent Change Management


6D: Life Cycle Management (Owner/FM)

6D (emergent) uses the BIM to perform activities related to the post construction management of a building accurately, quickly, and intelligently by delivering objects from BIM applications to FM Desktop and Archibus.

•  Uses BIM to test “what-if” senarios

•  Intelligent FM

•  Maintenance schedules

•  Intelligent Post Construction Change Management


METADATA is structured data which describes the characteristics of a thing.
