Abstract

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is an emergent tool that can be used to design and document a building but is also used to segue enhanced communications to all project stakeholders. The tool has changed the way we, as designers, communicate with consultants. It can be used to direct the industry in more sustainable means by allowing an easier way to quantify a greener design approach. This unit will cover how BIM can inform the basis for sustainable design. Please note that all course materials and content are provided in the IMS Common Cartridge (IMSCC) format. The content can be accessed by opening the IMSCC file using your organization's Learning Management System application (these include Blackboard, D2L, Canvas etc.). Additional information about accessing Common Cartridge files can be found on the IMS Global Web site: http://www.imsglobal.org/cc. Future plans for the Skills Commons Web site include a feature that will allow users to view and download course content that is provided in the IMSCC format.
