The future of the construction industry is digital
According to the United Nations, by 2050 the world's population will be 10 billion. The construction industry must look to smarter, more efficient ways to design and build not just to keep up with global demand but to help create smarter and more resilient spaces for the future. The UK Government aims to create opportunities for the UK construction sector by becoming a world leader in BIM. BIM is now a requirement on all UK government buildings and BIM adoption in the UK is increasing. BIM is a process that begins with the creation of an intelligent 3D model and enables document management, coordination and simulation during the entire lifecycle of a project from plan to design, build, operation and maintenance.
