On this episode of BIM After Dark Live I am super excited to welcome Jim Balding (of the ANT Group) to the show. Traditionally, BIM has always been equated to the “big firms”. Well, Jim and I are going discuss how BIM (and the adoption of new technology) actually benefits the smaller architecture and engineering firms MORE! Jim has spent his entire career integrating new technologies with small-scale professional practice and I look forward to chatting with him.
Jim will share some of the tools, workflows, processes, and (I’m sure) stories of his years spent in the world of “little BIM”…
Sit back, relax, and lets geek out!
