In support of Government's initiative of developing a Smart City and Common Spatial Data Infrastructure (CSDI), the CIC appointed AECOM as the Consultant to conduct a Study to accelerate the development of Digital Hong Kong last year, by identifying and collecting different 3D spatial and BIM data use case requirements from the local construction industry. Use cases of Building Information Modelling (BIM), Geographic Information System (GIS), 3D spatial data and other kinds of geospatial data are covered. This Study facilitates 3D spatial and BIM data sharing, BIM and GIS integration and the development of 3D Map, which represents the built environment for the Digital Hong Kong. Apart from the top 10 use cases identified and presented last year, one more use case, namely "Preliminary Design for Building (including A&A works) & Civil Engineering Project", is identified, and will be presented in this webinar. The full Report of the Consultancy Study will be available in the CIC BIM Portal: https://www.bim.cic.hk/en/resources/publications, before the webinar. Also, the representative from Geospatial Lab will share an update of Geospatial Lab and CSDI. Speakers: Representatives of Geospatial Lab, AECOM and the CIC Should you have any queries, please contact Mr. Lok FUNG (email: bim@cic.hk; tel: 2100 9649). Remarks: An electronic copy of CPD attendance certificate will be issued to participants with over 80% attendance within one month after the live webinar.

Recently, there is an increasing interest in ISO 19650 series of standards and how an organisation and her BIM projects can be verified as ISO 19650 complied. First and second parts of ISO 19650 (ISO 19650-1: 2018 and ISO 19650-2 :2018) have given the users basic concepts and principles of information involved in an asset lifecycle, collaboration between the participants involved in a construction project and the requirements associated to the information management at various stages. Verification of BIM projects will definitely give the project owner and the parties involved in the supply chain a high confidence on how the information be managed in the BIM Modelling and related works. It can also benefit the BIM practitioners to upgrade their quality standard in BIM Modelling and related works. PART 1: Reason to go for ISO 19650 verification and how to prepare for it? Speaker: Mr. Kevin WONG, BIM Manager of Wings & Associates Consulting Engineers Limited Wings & Associates Consulting Engineers Limited is an engineering consultant firm using BIM application in government projects. In this webinar, they will share their experience in preparing the ISO 19650-1 and ISO 19650-2 standards verification from the following perspectives: Why ISO 19650 verified? What are the benefits? How to prepare the verification? PART 2: Key points in ISO 19650-1 and ISO 19650-2 verification with case sharing Speaker: Mr. Thomas MA, Project Manager of SGS Mr. Thomas MA will highlight some key points that you must not miss by sharing his experience in auditing different types of BIM Projects managed by overseas Main Contractor & local BIM consultant, including design and construction of highways, water dam, walking trails and buildings. Speakers' Profile: About Mr. Kevin WONG Mr. Kevin S.C. WONG had over 20 years BIM experience in Civil and Structural design in large scaled projects in Hong Kong. As the Chairman of HKIBIM, he possesses strong passion on promoting BIM for construction industry. He is currently BIM Manager of Wings & Associates Consulting Engineers Ltd. and part-time lecturer for BIM education of many government and education institutions in Hong Kong. About Mr. Thomas MA In last two decades, Mr. Thomas MA had conducted quality management system and asset management system audits over 1500 construction sites covering projects from foundation, site formation, slope maintenance, construction of buildings, infrastructures, and underground utilities, to maintenance of buildings and building services. He has conducted couple of ISO 19650-1 and ISO 19650-2 verification audits for Hong Kong and overseas projects since March 2020. For more details, please click here.

The "BIM Solution Day" aims at promoting the latest BIM-related solutions to stakeholders. Every time, we have a different theme to introduce stakeholders about the latest solutions in a particular area. We are glad to have the participation of Bricsys.

In 2020, the DEVB and CIC had conducted a holistic review and planning of BIM training for the construction industry in Hong Kong. It was estimated that the demand of BIM Viewer would be around 17,000 persons by 2025. To cope with the surged demand of BIM personnel, the CIC developed a "Teaching and Learning Kit" (the "Kit" ) for BIM viewers. BIM Viewers should possess foundation BIM knowledge such as viewing a BIM model using PC, tablet, or mobile device effectively in a manner similar to reading 2D drawings onsite. Upon completion of the BIM Viewer training, learners could participate in an online quiz to obtain a BIM Viewer Certificate. The Webinar will introduce course modules and contents of the BIM Viewer Teaching and Learning Kit, as well as tips and sample questions for the BIM viewer quiz. A Q&A session will be available for audience to find out more about the topic. Speakers: Ar. Ada FUNG, Chairperson, Committee on BIM, Construction Industry Council Ir Dr. George WONG, Manager – Industry Development, Construction Industry Council Ms. Ella POON, Assistant Manager – Industry Development, Construction Industry Council Should you have any queries, please contact Mr. NGAN (email: bim@cic.hk; tel: 3199 7323).
