Nathan Hildebrandt •  Associate •  Project Architect •  Manage architectural team •  11 years experience using

BIM software ‘ArchiCAD’ •  OpenBIM advocate •  Graphisoft Development Panel •  ArchiCAD Beta Tester •  Member of BuildingSMART •  BrisBIM Committee Member

Challenges with BIM •  Significant shift in information creation •  Implementation needs to be staged •  Staff need to know how a building is built •  BIM is still in its infancy

•  Standards are not in place •  Leading to confusion from clients

Page 6: Nathan Hildebrandt

Challenges with BIM •  New Processes need to be developed •  Costly if you head up dry gullies

Why Fulton Trotter embrace BIM

MacKillop Catholic College Library | Warnervale NSW | 2004

•  Why embark on BIM unless you benefit from it •  FTA Clients don’t require BIM •  FTA are embracing BIM as a process

•  Efficiencies – quicker production •  Quality – less variations •  More time for design

•  Future delivery process for all construction projects

Case Studies

•  Hinkler Hall of Aviation – 3d Structural Steel Drawings •  Wongaburra – Services Modelling •  Tamborine Mountain College – Mobile Technology •  Faith Lutheran College – Pilot full coordinated tender model

Page 11: Nathan Hildebrandt

Hinkler Hall of Aviation

•  Completed in 2007 •  Complex Structural Steel Building •  Simple Architectural Cladding Shell

Page 12: Nathan Hildebrandt

Hinkler Hall of Aviation

3D Shop Drawings •  3D Structural Steel Shop drawings produced in Tekla. •  Quick and easy review process •  Model reviewed outside of ArchiCAD •  1800 shop drawings produced but not necessary to review in

as much detail.

•  Real benefits in the process. •  Benefits even greater today with Clash Detection Software.

Page 15: Nathan Hildebrandt

Wongaburra

•  Upgrade of Existing Aged Care Facilities •  Conversion of Undercroft Space into Administration Facilities •  Service Consultants delivering typical 2D documentation

Page 16: Nathan Hildebrandt

Wongaburra

•  2530 Floor to underside of slab •  Habitable Space required to be obtained •  Modelling the only answer

Wongaburra

•  Modeling on its own wouldn’t have achieved the outcome. •  Communication key to success of installation

Page 19: Nathan Hildebrandt

Tamborine Mountain College •  Secondary School Library and Teaching Spaces •  500sqm •  Consultants providing 2D information / documentation

Page 20: Nathan Hildebrandt

Tamborine Mountain College Communicating with a Virtual Model •  Already used as a tool for

•  Design Reviews •  Consultants •  Client Sign Off on Design •  Architect review on Site

•  Pilot project with Contractor. •  Issued for trialling on Site.

Tamborine Mountain College

•  Challenge getting Contractor to use technology on site.

•  Provides a accompanying piece of information to drawings and specification.

•  Development of software will transform the Construction Industry.

Page 23: Nathan Hildebrandt

Faith Lutheran College

•  Secondary Library •  500sqm

Page 24: Nathan Hildebrandt

Faith Lutheran College •  Pilot Project for fully coordinated Consultant Team Model •  Creation of workflows for multi-platform team

Workflow

Faith Lutheran College

•  Cost $10k timecost to test and develop workflows. Now in place a good investment.

•  Delivered the project with -0.3% in Latent, Authority, Documentation Variations. Client Variations 1.4%

•  Contractor didn’t embrace technology or 3D shop drawings •  Had Contractor engaged in process would they benefit?

Page 27: Nathan Hildebrandt

The Future – where are we heading

•  Everything is modelled •  All notation automated, derived straight from the model •  Specification & Schedules generated directly from the model •  Model checking software will perform majority of QA tasks •  Developing process of communication with our QS •  Developing processes with our builders so they benefit

Page 28: Nathan Hildebrandt

Working with Tier 2 Contractors

•  Uptake of BIM in Tier 2 is very limited •  Working with regular Contractors to show benefits of

adapting to technology •  Challenge is without standard deliverables from Clients

process development now could be a significant dry gully •  Sub Contractors are smaller and investment to great?

Page 29: Nathan Hildebrandt

How will the industry adapt

•  Question roles of Professional Consultants in the future! •  Where will everyone fit it? •  How do you adapt your business and remain relevant?

Page 30: Nathan Hildebrandt

Road to Standard Deliverables

•  BuildingSMART are working along with a number of other NFP organisations to create Guidelines.

•  Boost the uptake, clearer ideas of deliverables. •  Clients can ask for an reasonable outcome and Project Team

will know what is needed to achieve it.
