Laing O'Rourke Centre for Construction Engineering and Technology

 
A selection of research from the Construction Information Technology Laboratory.

The University of Cambridge is organising an online Building Information Modelling (BIM) school, running from 7-11 December 2020.

This school, organised by Centre academic Dr Ioannis Brilakis, is part of a series of training events of the Cloud BIM European Training Network (CBIM ETN).

Building Information Modelling (BIM) is the science and technology of digitally organising Built Environment products and processes. It is concerned with the theory, design and implementation of data structures, cloud architectures and algorithms that can generate, store and exchange Built Environment data as well as methods to exploit it.

Applications are open to Master Students, Ph. D. students, Post-Docs, young researchers (both academic and industrial), senior researchers (both academic and industrial) or academic/industrial professionals.
