Скачать или смотреть Delivering Value with Building Information Modeling for Infrastructure (BIM4I) in Bridge Lifecycles

Gordon Moore, who was one of the co-founders of Intel, noted in the mid-1960s that computers double in their capacity and their speed per unit cost about every two years. (Now known as Moore's Law.)

As bridge engineers, we have an extraordinary amount of computing power available to us. How do we leverage this computing power for efficiency to give California taxpayers and stakeholders the greatest return on their investment?

This question has been at the heart of the BIM (Building Information Modeling) effort in Bridges and Structures. In the presentation, we will share some of the ways we are adding value with BIM across the bridge delivery lifecycle from design to maintenance.

ABOUT ASCE:
ASCE is the American Society of Civil Engineers. ASCE represents more than 160,000 members of the civil engineering profession in 177 countries. Founded in 1852, ASCE is the nation’s oldest national civil engineering society. ASCE stands at the forefront of a profession that plans, designs, constructs, and operates society’s economic and social engine – the built environment – while protecting and restoring the natural environment. ASCE is organized into 10 regions, 106 sections, 159 branches, 416 student chapters, and 131 younger member groups. There are also 9 specialty institutes that are focused on particular technical domains within civil engineering. Go to www.asce.org to learn more and explore the benefits of membership.

ABOUT ASCE Capital Branch:
The Capital Branch is one of four Branches in the Sacramento Section which is part of Region 9 of ASCE. The Capital Branch represents ASCE members in the counties of Sacramento, Yolo, El Dorado, Sierra, Plumas, those portions of Nevada and Placer counties which are east of the crest of the Sierra Nevada mountains, and the 95661 and 95678 zip code areas of Roseville in the state of California.
