Digital Engineering has taken a quantum leap in recent years with the advent of BIM / CIM gathering momentum very quickly within the civil space. The benefits this collaborative, metadata rich and visually dynamic platform brings to all stakeholders within civil infrastructure projects cannot be underestimated.

However, it has introduced a range of challenges to the Engineering Surveyor including actually being able to utilise BIM data in day to day set-out and in terms of Work as Executed deliverables and reporting.

This seminar seeks to provide insight into this brave new world of Digital Engineering, bringing together Subject Matter Experts from within industry and software houses to raise awareness of what Digital Engineering actually is, how it directly impacts the engineering surveyor, case studies from the work face and a panel discussion focused on where the construction industry is at with Digital Engineering implementation, authorities / projects which are moving culturally to DE, issues for surveyors in working with BIM data, an IFC data standard update and of course, general QA from the audience.

Presented by SSSI Engineering & Mining Surveying Commission.
