Transitioning to BIM in Civil Engineering and Architecture

On May 15, 2019, 2nd international conference ‘BIM in Construction & Architecture’ started at SPbGASU. Representatives of Russian and international universities, building companies and project organizations are discussing BIM application to industrial and civil engineering.

Natalia Lukmanova, Head of the Science Research and Innovation Office: ‘BIM application is a high-priority task which demands to reorganize university curriculum and training of specialists. We are sure the conference would be a decent space for exchange of ideas and everyone would find all the necessary answers.

I have had a 10-hour flight to come to your wonderful conference. BIM leads us to the future and changes modern construction. We widely use it in Korea and I am happy that Russia is applying it bow too. I want the conference to be a starting point in our cooperation.

I am glad to visit SPbGASU; we have long-standing partnership relations which I want to support. BIM is a huge step for civil engineering. When talking about BIM, I am interested in designing the right model, then presenting the model for the builders and engineers, and also the use of the model. I am looking forward to learn about these aspects at the conference.

The conference ends on May 17. It is sponsored by ASKON-Severo-Zapad and GRAPHISOFT. The title media sponsor is ‘Stroitelny ezhednevnik’.
