Building Information Modelling

建筑信息建模(BIM)是一个正在从根本上影响全球建筑业**的过程。它使企业能够在实际物理**建造之前虚拟地设想设施的建造，以便识别问题、模拟挑战、分析潜在的解决方案、提高安全性并**降低总体建造成本。它的使用通过改变项目**的现有互操作性、可扩展性、标准化和风险管理水平来提高生产率，从而显著改善项目**的管理、决策和满足交付成果和截止日期。这使建筑公司能够**在建筑生命周期的每个阶段实现重大效率，从概念到使用。加拿大建筑业目前在BIM技术的研究和采用方面落后于世界其他地区。由于采用BIM的商业成本令人望而却步，包括在**基础设施、硬件、软件和培训方面的巨额投资，许多中小企业实际上将被排除在**竞争需要BIM专业知识的合同之外。**乔治布朗学院(GBC)致力于成为加拿大领先的BIM应用研究、创新和培训机构。GBC将支持中小企业采用BIM方法，并将BIM**工具应用于其商业模式。拟议的计划将积极地将BIM技术和流程转移到**安大略省的建筑业中小企业，在整个建筑**生命周期中提高中小企业的生产力和效率。GBC将为应届毕业生以及经验丰富的行业专业人员提供培训，以便**他们能够促进BIM在劳动力中的实施。这一倡议将使GBC能够发挥领导**作用，并与业界合作，解决BIM创新差距，并促进安大略省**建筑业的经济发展。

Building Information Modelling (BIM) is a process that is radically impacting the construction industry**worldwide. It enables businesses to envisage the construction of a facility virtually, prior to its actual physical**construction, in order to identify problems, simulate challenges, analyze potential solutions, improve safety and**decrease overall build costs. Its utilization increases productivity by transforming existing levels of project**interoperability, scalability, standardization and risk management and so significantly improving project**management, decision-making and meeting deliverables and deadlines. This enables construction companies to**realize major efficiencies at every stage of the building lifecycle from concept through to occupation. The**Canadian construction sector currently lags behind the rest of the world in research and adoption of BIM**technology. Because of the prohibitive business costs of BIM adoption, which include sizable investments in**infrastructure, hardware, software and training, many SMEs will effectively be locked out of the competition**for contracts that require BIM expertise.**George Brown College (GBC) is committed to becoming the leading institution in Canada for BIM applied**research, innovation and training. GBC will support SMEs in adopting BIM approaches and adapting BIM**tools into their business models. The proposed initiative will actively transfer BIM technology and processes to**Ontario's construction sector SMEs, increasing SME productivity and efficiency throughout the whole building**lifecycle. GBC will provide training to recent graduates as well as to seasoned industry professionals so that**they can facilitate BIM implementation in the workforce. This initiative will enable GBC to take a leadership**role and partner with industry to address the BIM innovation gap and catalyze economic development in the**construction sector in Ontario.
