LEADING AND COLLABORATING WITH THE GLOBAL BIM COMMUNITY.


INTRODUCTION

The mission of BIMForum Global is to make improvements within the built
environment.This is achieved through results-oriented research that delivers
practical implementation of technology to project owners and their team.  




RESOURCES

In 2023, BIMForum Global committed to the pursuit of maintaining its
specification in both Spanish and English through its collaboration with other
BIMForum’s in Spanish speaking countries. To learn more about this initiative,
please email us at info@BIMForum.Global.

While most of BIMForum Global digital resources are provided as free downloads,
we want to stress that providing, creating, maintaining and updating this
material  takes notable time, effort, financial resources and commitment. We
want to encourage all who may find some value from our work to seriously
consider joining as a contributor to our collective cause of improving our
AECO-FM industry.

BIMFORUM GLOBAL LOD SPECIFICATION

Beginning in 2021 the BIMForum Global (BFG) LOD Specification draft titled 2022
version has remained open for Contributor commenting due to Ascends work to
collaborate with other BIMForums on this new LOD Specification. Additionally,
the American Institute of Architects and the American Concrete Institute both
published new LOD documents that need to be considered in the 2022 version LOD
Specification. BFG will open the 2022 version at the end of July 2023, for one
month of public comments. It will be available for review in both Spanish and
English. Work on the 2023 version LOD Specification is simultaneously on going
with other BIMForums, BIM and VDC groups, industry organizations and thought
leaders in the AECO-FM professions.


BIMFORUM GLOBAL REALITY CAPTURE AND LEVEL OF ACCEPTANCE (LOA) SPECIFICATION

This specification combines both reality capture densities as well as
tolerances. The specification was produced from the results of both PhD research
and detailed project case studies in laser scanning by Ascend and BIMForum
Global Contributors. The 2022 version is currently available, and we are seeking
Contributor input for the 2023 version that is scheduled to be available Fall
2024.

BIM Project Execution Planning Taskforce to update the document with new Ascend
research gathered since 2019.


ABOUT US

BIMForum Global (The Forum, “BFG”) is a forum of Ascend Building Knowledge
Foundation (ABKF) with the focused goal of improving the built environment
through the practical implementation of innovation for project owners and their
teams. The target audiences are the Virtual Design and Construction (VDC)
professionals and the organizational leaders who serve, guide and direct them.
While The Forum does draw from rigorous academic research through Ascend, it is
focused on practical, realistic application of VDC processes on real world
projects. The BIMForum Global content is developed from Ascend’s research in
architecture, engineering, construction, and Operations/Facility Management
(AECO-FM), as well as, practical feedback from end users and other organizations
that Ascend collaborates with.  

The ABKF was established in 2017 to provide the AECO-FM industry evidence based
research that leads to educational tools VDC professionals can utilize to
improve their teams, organizations and projects through innovation and
advancements in technology and processes. 

The Ascend Building Knowledge Foundation focuses on research and training for
high performance projects in the AEC-FM industry, seeking to provide the
resources that will allow the industry to continue to develop, adapt, and grow.
At ABKF, we want to equip the current and future generations of AEC workers with
the knowledge and capabilities to innovate in the area of building technology.
Our focus is on researching trends and innovations within the industry and using
that research to educate, equip and collaborate within the industry.

Ascend Building Knowledge Foundation is incorporated as a nonprofit, public
benefit, charitable foundation with 501(c)(3) status, and operates independently
of other organizations.

Join Our Community of Contributors

Ascend’s BIMForum Global, as well as its other forums, are built on the concept
of a community of contributors. We seek to draw from a wide and diverse
background of practicing professionals and the industry organizations they
represent.  Contributors provide their perspective on research, guidelines,
specifications, and other projects through serving on taskforces, committees,
focus groups and webinars. Contributors also provide their perspective through
voting on the priorities of projects as well as updates to existing works.
Opportunity for this feedback will be made available by ballots conducted with
contributors throughout the year, as required. Some contributors may want to
commit to more rigorous efforts such as collaborating on authoring documents or
presenting in webinars.

To join our contributor community, contribute to BIMForum Global’s work and have
a voice in the work of Ascends other forums please contact us at:
