Due to client confidentiality and company IP policy this presentation has been modified from it’s original format. What we are able to show and tell is different from what we choose to leave behind. I have endeavored to convey the story of each slide through the speaker notes. I hope you enjoy this presentation.– Franz Hein

A little about Woods Bagot…we’re a big companyWe were founded in Adelaide and spread our wings across the globe.We often share work between studios sending it to another time zone to continue overnight and receiving back the next day. This type of operation allows us to accelerate project delivery. With a large network of staff we have many experts in across a range of sectors and software who we are able to call upon and mobilize for any given project.

A parable of six blind men asked to describe an elephant…Blind Man 1: touches the trunk; it’s wriggly and wet…it feels like a snake!Blind Man 2: touches the tusk; it’s sharp and pointy…it feels like a spear!Bling Man 3: touches the ear; it’s flat and flappy…it feels like a fan!Blind Man 4: touches the leg; it’s round and solid…it feels like a tree!Blind Man 5: touches the belly; it’s flat and immovable…it fells like a wall!Bling Man 6: touches the tail; it’s long and wiggly…it feels like a rope!
My point is that BIM is a very broad topic to describe. Most of us only touch on a small portion of it.
My BIM's Bigger Than Your BIM! BrisBIM | 23 April 2013
BIM is a whole lot of things…an endless list of possibilities encapsulating the whole of lifecycle of a building and involving the entire food chain. Everyone touches on a portion but no single party can ever cover all of it.
My BIM's Bigger Than Your BIM! BrisBIM | 23 April 2013
At Woods Bagot the key benefits of BIM for us are Geometry, Analysis, Simulation, Visualisation and Validation.Hopefully the following project examples will illustrate these 5 key areas.

SAHMRI - South Australian Health and Medical Research InstituteThe new South Australian Health and Medical Research Institute (SAHMRI) is the most significant development in health and medical research for South Australia in the 21st Century. The headquarters for SAHMRI will comprise a total gross floor area of approximately 25,000 square metres and will accommodate up to 675 researchers from South Australia, Australia and beyond. Expected completion date - August 2013

These diagrams illustrate various façade zones and quantify the number of unique panel types which were later optimised to a sensible number of standardised panels for fabrication.

Thermal performance of the façade was analysed using Ecotect.Ecotect is a discontinued product however many of it’s features are being migrated to Vasari and ultimately I believe they will end up being features within Revit or available through the Autodesk cloud.

These figures represent a daylight and glare analysis incorporating options for external shading devices. This data was provided by our project partner ArtelierTen.

Early conceptual modelling of the SAHMRI façade in Revit gave a good indication of view quality and provided the design team with an excellent tool to comprehend and work through the façade construction.
My BIM's Bigger Than Your BIM! BrisBIM | 23 April 2013
Several façade mockups are built in these early stages to prototype each design option. Eventually the end product is a combination of performance, aesthetic and view quality.

Having a 3D model provides an excellent visualisation and communication tool. These presentation images were pushed out of Revit and inverted to provide a simple stylish graphic.

The design came about through the need to break up the monolithic form of the façade. This was achieved by running deep crevasses through the façade; connecting ground with sky.1. Triangular building on a triangular site.2. Each face has it’s own character.3. Scale break down by fracturing the form.4. Buildings community inhabitate the fissures; expressed through colour and

The design ideology of the project was to ….1. Conversation to city. Civic face.2. Break down in scale. Shift from urban building to human scale.3. Way finding identifiers for in and outside the building.4. Describe community within the building.5. Shouldn’t look like an office building.6. Refracted light and colour through fissures.
My BIM's Bigger Than Your BIM! BrisBIM | 23 April 2013
Coloration of the fissures was applied parametrically through GrasshopperEach panel went through a process to establish…
1. Is the panel exposed to the sun?2. What angle is the panel exposed to the sunlight?3. How long is the panel exposed to the sunlight?4. Combine these results.5. Assign the results to the panels.6. Apply colours according to these rules.7. Bake geometry with attributes.
My BIM's Bigger Than Your BIM! BrisBIM | 23 April 2013
These images indicate the Thermal analysis that the fissures underwent and provides a visual diagram of sunlight vertices affecting themThe resultant colour scheme on the right also allowed for a softening of the gradient by randomly swapping colour values of panels to a colour either side of the resultant value. There were also manual overrides to specify which solid panels became glazing.

It is widely understood that only a small portion of the change required involves technical expertise. It is relatively easy to learn a new software or tool however changing the way we collaborate together, restructuring roles within our own workplaces and defining new types of contracts and deliveries is infinitely more difficult and requires ongoing effort.

Some of my favourite quotes from a book I would recommend to all…The first illustrates that old school thinkers very much struggle to comprehend reason why they would need to change a tried and true system that has worked for them for years.The second touches on the principles of IPD (Integrated Project Delivery) a methodology which I believe will reshape the future of building procurement and building lifecycle management.

Woods Bagot have an online knowledgebase known as WOOKI.Any information shared through this resource is immediately available throughout the company globally.Articles can be published, indexed, edited or commented on by any employee within the company making this and extremely powerful form of knowledge management within our organisation.
My BIM's Bigger Than Your BIM! BrisBIM | 23 April 2013
There are several launch pads at the front end which generally change from time to time depending on what we are choosing to promote though out the organisation.
My BIM's Bigger Than Your BIM! BrisBIM | 23 April 2013
Business leaders and BID managers must understand the implications of BIM. They need to be able to educate our Clients on what they can and should be asking for as well as understand what we are capable of delivering. They also need to be able to identify risks as well as opportunities.
My BIM's Bigger Than Your BIM! BrisBIM | 23 April 2013
The article on the left has several “Launch Pads” to propel various members of our organisation in the right direction…The CLIENT FACING launch pad is aimed at Principals, Marketing and BID Managers. This directs them to BID preparation material, marketing text and images and provides an overview for business development incorporating BIM.The PROJECT LEADERSHIP launch pad provides an overview of BIM explaining how project leaders must adjust workflows and outcomes to adapt for BIM deliveries and also provides insight on resource planningWhilst the PROJECT TEAM launch pad provides an expectation of BIM from a users perspective and provides clear role descriptions and links to further reference materials on Standards and User communities
The article on the right side is inside one of these launch pads where we view this information in a more granular manner splitting up the information by task or project phase…
1.) UNDERSTANDING AND ASSESSMENT2.) PLANNING AND ESTABLISHMENT3.) EXECUTION AND DELIVERY

Diving further in on the left we have an article on Understanding BIM. This explains to a non BIM savvy person how 2D documents are derived from the 3D model. The need to alter workflows and the social aspect of BIM as well as shifting resourcing, fees, effort and decision making up front to gain the most benefits. On the right we have an article explaining the necessity of a BIM Management Plan; it’s purpose and how best to go about creating one.
My BIM's Bigger Than Your BIM! BrisBIM | 23 April 2013
Our Revit standards for technicians are spelled out in the article on the left whilst on the right, looking into one of these article we have a documented procedure with step by step instructions.
My BIM's Bigger Than Your BIM! BrisBIM | 23 April 2013
In any change effort it is important to create short term wins and to celebrate these along the way as well as communicate these. This keeps people heading in the same direction as the momentum of the change effort. On the left we have a blog article which is a PR piece about new door families. We go on to announce their arrival, explain when and why to use them and point staff to the numerous supporting resources we have for these components.On the right we have a snippet of a very long article which technicians are able to browse to review what doors are available in the library.
My BIM's Bigger Than Your BIM! BrisBIM | 23 April 2013
Further supporting information comes in the form of detailed instructions on how to use each family parameter by parameter as well as short tutorial videos explaining various aspects of their functionality.It is important to appreciate that people learn best by a variety of mediums. Some staff will be happy to read material and absorb, others are more visual and like to see how it’s done, whilst some are more cognisant when they are shown
“Tell me and I'll forget; show me and I may remember; involve me and I'll understand.” – Chinese proverb

We have a variety of show and tell forums within our organisation. On the left we have an article from a Revit Users group which meets weekly to discuss current or suggested topics, whilst on the right we have a regular Monday morning design session which presents the design philosophy for any given project at a particular milestone. Both of these forums are recorded online so if you have missed the session or weren’t in that particular studio, you can still catch up on the material.

If you’ve noticed that some of the other Applications we have been using have animal names such as Rhino, Monkey, Grasshopper etc. ….we’ve developed a plugin in house called Sparrow…
My BIM's Bigger Than Your BIM! BrisBIM | 23 April 2013
Seating arrangements for theatre or arena are based on the principal of see values.Typically 90mm for Sport and 150mm for Theatre., a see value is the distance over the head of the person seated in front.
My BIM's Bigger Than Your BIM! BrisBIM | 23 April 2013
We then nominate the focal point (dashed line at the edge of the pitch) followed by the number of seating rows and the number of tiers. This will build a bowl of points which hold an x,y,z, and rotation value where seat elements are hosted to these points.
My BIM's Bigger Than Your BIM! BrisBIM | 23 April 2013
Visual analysis or heat maps providing data feedback of the seating arrangement can be generated. This one is looking at the viewing distance to the centre of the pitch. These sort of diagrams can assist the vendor with allocating seating prices.
My BIM's Bigger Than Your BIM! BrisBIM | 23 April 2013
This diagram evaluates see value. It is pretty flat indicating that all the seats have the desired see value…and why wouldn’t they…we built them in Sparrow!The 2 blue rings indicate a better than average see value. That is because they are the first row of their tier so they have an unimpeded view.
Other analysis we can run looks at view envelope. Each sporting code has a different view envelope and we can evaluate each seat accordingly to the sporting codes prescribed values.
