Tech Session: BIM: Building Information Modeling An Overview, Presented by Eric Bogenschutz, Associate Director of BIM at BSA Lifestructures.



Eric has extensive knowledge setting up and supporting BIM software for both Architectural & Engineering. He will be discussing BIM as a holistic design and construction process that portrays the use of technology as a communication tool. BIM isn’t just specific software, but it is a process and a concept of completing projects. BIM can be anything that you want it to be, but there are some common items that will be presented during our presentations such as:

Energy Simulations and Analysis
Cost Modeling
Clash Detection
Visualization
Contractual Obligations and Deliverables



Meeting Program:
BIM has become more prevalent in recent years as a tool to deliver building projects.



What is BIM?
How does BIM affect the project delivery in both design and construction phases?
What benefit does the Owner receive when a ‘record model’ is delivered?
CIC ASHRAE has assembled a group of five (5) panelists; an Owner, an Engineer, an Architect, a Contractor and a Vendor with extensive real life experience utilizing BIM technology on actual projects. They will be responding to questions and discussing how BIM is affecting our industry.



The panelists include:
Theresa Thompson: Director of In-House Projects and Spatial Info (Indiana University – Bloomington)
Andre Maue: Mechanical Engineering Manager (L’Acquis Engineering)
Anson Keller: (Browning Day Mullins Dierdorf)
Joseph Lansdell: President (Poynter Sheetmetal)
Brian Lohman: Account Manager (Trane)
We’ll start off the conversation with a list of pre-selected questions to get the discussion rolling. We will also field additional questions from the audience towards the end of the meeting. So bring your questions and see if you can stump our panelists!

PRESIDENTS MESSAGE

Thanks to Tom Durkin and IPS for successful meeting in January. It was great to see the design up close for the ASHRAE technology award winner for 2009, IPS school #87 designed by Tom Durkin. If you would like to submit a project for a technology award contact our Central Indiana Chapter (CIC) ASHRAE Chapter Technology Transfer Committee (CTTC) Chair, Brooke Enochs, benochs@m-n-a.com. The project will need to be in operation to achieve actual energy use information and submittals are due by the end of February. There are chapter awards, regional awards and national awards available.Our meeting in February should be another great one as we get a chance to learn about BIM from several people with real life experience. This is a rare opportunity to learn about new technology that is reshaping how we go about designing and constructing buildings. At this meeting we will also have a special celebration of our 50th anniversary and honor our past presidents. You don’t want to miss this one!

Welcome New CIC ASHRAE Student Activities Committee Co-Chairs:We have a new student activities chair actually two of them. They are Chris Watkins with JCI and Seth Whitesel with Trane who will co-chair the student activities committee.
