Common Data Environment (CDE), the adoption of which is one of the key performance indicators in CIC's Construction Digitalisation Roadmap by 2026, inevitably plays an important role in our project delivery process. By definition, CDE is a central repository to house construction project information. As the single source of information for the project, it is used to collect, manage, collaborate, and share project information with the project team. Information includes documents, contractors, reports, records, 3D model information, quantities etc. It is such variety of multiple parties and information types involved that makes it difficult to fully utilize the true benefits of CDE, and to get the buy-ins from all parties. This webinar will start with general introduction of CDE for construction project life cycle, with references from international practices such as the UK's. Then the talk will cover a few project examples of CDE in Gammon projects, on the challenges/barriers faced, the outcome, the practical applications and the benefits arising from it.

The Construction Industry Council (CIC)'s goal of organising BIM Talks is to bring together bright minds to give talks that are related to the successful implementation of BIM in real life, and on a wide range of topics to accelerate BIM adoption. BIM experts of different background from the industry will be invited to share their "how-to-BIM" experience in BIM Talks. This year, we will invite Organisation category awardees of the CIC Construction Digitalisation Award 2021 to share their BIM transformation initiatives and benefits, outcomes and performance that BIM brought to their organisation. Remarks: An electronic copy of CPD attendance certificate will be issued to participants with over 80% attendance within one month after the live webinar. Any attendance on replay sessions after webinar will not be considered for CPD attendance certificate. Replay video is now exclusive for i-Club members, please click here to join i-Club.

New Engineering Contract (NEC) adopts a fundamentally different philosophy and practice to most other standard form of contracts. NEC is characterised by its period for reply, early warning, integrated pricing options among others. One may say that a contract is well managed if all the parties comply with the period for reply. In line with the flow-charts published by NEC, Ir C K Ng proposes a new approach to handle NEC projects. Emphasis is placed on the response within the stated period for reply to those NEC communications that may lead to compensation events. The speaker designed a system, dRoW (Digital Record of Work), to help the parties comply with the period for reply. This system is provided as a Software as a Service (SaaS), developed using MEAN Stack web application development tools. As a web application, dRoW can provide APIs for interface with other web-based applications e.g. BIM, GIS, RFID, DWSS and EDMS. In this webinar, the speaker will also give his views on the use of NEC for building contracts from his involvement in building projects in recent years. Speaker : Ir C K NG, NEC PM, CCBM, Director of CEO of dRoW Limited Should you have any inquiries, please contact Ms. LI at bim@cic.hk / 3199 7274.

The CIC BIM Advanced Workshop aims at enhancing practitioners' BIM skill level by providing hands-on opportunities on different BIM-related software. This time, we are pleased to have Autodesk in supporting our BIM Advanced Workshop. Content of the workshop (Information provided by vendor): Over the last year, we've seen cloud collaboration shift from a nice-to-have to a must-have. At Autodesk, we're making AEC collaboration even better with the launch of "BIM Collaborate Pro" – our flagship offering for design teams who need to collaborate anytime, anywhere in Revit. Join our workshop to learn how BIM Collaborate Pro, formerly BIM 360 Design, can help design teams like yours to co-author Revit models, easily understand incoming changes from collaborating teams, and make informed decisions so you can deliver better designs with less rework. We'll walk through what the offering can do for you, how to set up your teams, and how to leverage the new features we launched in your everyday workflows. This workshop will cover: Introduction to BIM Collaborate Pro and why you need it Project Administration & Getting Started Revit Cloud Worksharing New Clash Detection and Advanced Project Analytics Capabilities New Workflows with the Unified Autodesk Construction Cloud Platform Speaker: Mr. Ken LEE, Technical Manager, Synnex Technology Int'l (HK) Ltd An electronic copy of CPD attendance certificate will be issued to qualified participants after the workshop. For registration, please send email to bimspace@cic.hk and state with your preferred workshop date, name, organisation, contact number and email address.

The CIC BIM Advanced Workshop aims at enhancing practitioners' BIM skill level by providing hands-on opportunities on different BIM-related software. This time, we are pleased to have Autodesk in supporting our BIM Advanced Workshop. Content of the workshop (Information provided by vendor): Learn how to use Python in Dynamo to enable more editing options than ever before. Python is one of the fastest-growing scripting languages and can be used for daily tasks in your own projects. Dynamo can let you directly input Python code into your scripts to do things regular nodes can't. This workshop will lead you through how to plan, edit, and execute your own scripts with Python for Dynamo. Learn about the essentials of setting up your own Python script, and edit geometry, sort data lists, write content to Revit software, and much more. With Python, you can unleash the potential in your projects so come and see what's possible. This workshop will cover: Explain workflow between Python, Dynamo and Revit; Python basics: variables, conditionals, operators, loops, and functions; Customise Dynamo node by Python; Revit and Dynamo conversions; Python and Revit API.
