1 Design in the Future where are we heading? Prof Arto Kiviniemi School of Architecture

2 Predicting the future...

3 Point of departure: BIM is nothing new, but changes in the construction industry are slow

4 First paper about BIM Chuck Eastman The use of computers instead of drawings in building design (March 1975) Some milestones on BIM timeline Building Product Modelling Early BIM research ISO STEP (Standard for the Exchange of Product Model Data) ArchiCAD 1 st BIM software for PCs (Mac) IAI International Alliance for Interoperability, now buildingsmart IFC st integrated BIM project HUT-600 in Finland Same old concept, new name... Building Information Modelling 1 st BIM requirements GSA (USA) & Senate Properties (Finland) IFC 2x3 Increasing industry interest in BIM Autodesk Revit Revit 1st IPD project in USA Announcements of UK Government s BIM requirements BIM becomes mandatory in public projects in the UK National BIM requirements in Finland

5

6 Culture of change resistance

7 Crisis = danger & opportunity

8 UK Government is mandating BIM Government will require fully collaborative 3D BIM (with all project and asset information, documentation and data being electronic) as a minimum by adoption of BIM will put us at the vanguard of the new digital construction era and position the UK to become the world leaders in BIM.

9 Governmental BIM requirements in the UK Government Construction Strategy 2011 defined 2016 Targets

11 Old business models can become obsolete In 1975 a Kodak scientist invented the digital camera. Kodak senior management were unimpressed because: the camera was huge, image quality was poor compared to film, getting a print was complex requiring a PC and PC skills, the film market was growing and so were Kodak sales and profits, if the technology could be improved, it would kill film the Golden Goose. The technology was buried until subsequent market emergence and Kodak s entry into digital in the late 1990 s Business results: In 1988 Kodak employed 145,300 people and made a profit of $1.17bn on $13.3bn revenue In 2009 it employed 19,900 people and made a quarterly loss of $111m In January 2012 Kodak filed for bankruptcy protection Film Digital

23 Current use of BIM is just the tip of the iceberg there are significant unused areas and potentials

24 BIM research has become a global effort

39 Focus on the lifecycle and business values Client s core business Design = 0.1 FM services Design & construction process Change adaptation Construction = 1 Business = Operation in 20 years = 3-5 Arto Kiviniemi VERA programme 2000

40 What do we mean by the performance of the buildings? We should start simulating the business performance of buildings! We can simulate the energy performance of buildings Image: Beijing Airport baggage claim, SMART Solutions Buro Happold Salaries 92% Running costs 6% Capital cost 2% Total energy 1.3% Rick Best, Gerard de Valence (1999) Building in Value: Pre-Design Issues

41 Emerging technologies

42 User interfaces, augmented reality, robotics

43 3D printing of houses

44 Are we educating for the past or for the future? How can we get talented people interested in working in the AEC industry?

47 In the nature material is expensive and shape is free. In the traditional construction shape is expensive and material is cheap. Is it possible that in the future shape will be cheap and material expensive? Inspired by Prof Julian Vincent s Biomimetics

48 Design in the future? Multidisciplinary & Collaborative Performance-based & Life-cycle oriented Enabling automated production methods Semi-automated or automated optioneering?
