underlying assumptions and the software and knowledge environments
necessary for its success. It explains the basic general and
specific requirements, important rules, and typical pitfalls and
obstacles encountered in BIM construction. It offers practical

levels of knowledge experts interact with it. Sustainability can be
supported by new tools and processes which will allow you to
transform your practice. Their will be live charrette using BIM and
integrated tools to support the sharing of knowledge in real time.
The information within BIM is valuable in the information age and
it is possible to Google your knowledge in a BIM. Get first a first
hand view on how to create a BIM withoutbeing a BIM expert. Watch
how Los Angeles and Rotterdam BIMStorm evolved.

Kimon Onuma, FAIA
10 - 11:30 a.m. – Concurrent sessions
Green modeling (IP41)
With the sharpened focus on creating energy-efficient,
high performance buildings, architects need energy analysis to move
out of the realm of engineering and into the realm of architecture
as a design tool. This talk will focus on how to incorporate energy
analysis, including building energy modeling, effectively into the
architectural design process. Topics covered will include which
tools are right for which analysis tasks, what detail level is
appropriate for each design phase, and the current and future
relationship of BIM to energy analysis. Case studies of energy
analysis in the design process will illustrate the talk.
Speaker:
Paul Stroller, AIA
