What Specifiers Want 2017 articles

Some key voices and leading industry commentators, including Paul Morrell OBE, get around a table to discuss how BIM will impact the construction sector.

A variety of speakers answer a range of questions on BIM to explain the practical benefits of BIM and the future realities. This is a really useful intervention for those yet to take up on BIM as it points out the cost benefits and time-saving in clear details. For those interested in developing their extant use of BIM it explores the future technological potential.

The Plan of Work sets out the work of the Construction Division for 2011/12 and outlines the direction until 2014. This programme will examine the five generic issues that will be considered at all site visits: including Work at height; Provision of welfare facilities; Good order; and Respiratory risks.

Filmed entirely on location, this programme looks at the increasingly common phenomenon of vertical gardens, or living walls as they have become known.

This programme provides a heads-up on the Government’s Low Carbon Construction Action Plan, which was launched by construction Minister Mark Prisk in June 2011. The Plan is designed to provide a structure for taking forward the recommendations in last autumn’s cross-industry Innovation and Growth Team (IGT) report.

This programme explores the key drivers for and changes in the new document compared to the 2008 version.

At present, there are 47 schools of architecture - across the UK - running courses that have been validated by the RIBA. This programme will take a look at the Validation procedures for Part 1 and Part 2. From September 2011 a new set of validation criteria applies to Schools of Architecture courses. As before, these will be held in common with the Architects Registration Board (ARB). And so this programme will get to grips with the key changes, to keep universities (and prospective employers) aware of the changes.
