BIM in landscape architecture

Anzeige Text im Grid: Nein

Online seminar of the bdla on 8 September 2021

Building Information Modeling, or BIM for short, is playing an increasingly important role as a planning method in landscape architecture. Although most construction projects have been digitally drawn for a long time and project management, AVA and other software is used, the captured data remains trapped in separate systems. With BIM, on the other hand, a central data structure of the construction object, including a three-dimensional model, is set up and managed. In this way, BIM allows for a holistic view of the project and its development, taking into account all relevant characteristic data as well as the life cycle of the respective object.

Student internships at bdla.de. Information for students and landscape architecture offices

The shortage of skilled workers is also becoming more acute in landscape architecture. That is why the topic of recruiting new talent has a central place in the current association work of the bdla. Among other things, it is necessary to start with school students and to advertise for a student internship in a planning office. It is a low-threshold offer and the first contact can be the impulse for the occupation with landscape architecture, one of the most exciting planning disciplines with diverse development possibilities.

Online seminar on 10 June 2021 provides information on an important consultancy service and a current model contract

Environmental construction supervision (UBB) has developed into an important instrument in construction projects. In the meantime, it has become an independent advisory service in the construction process and is primarily awarded to experts who are particularly qualified for this purpose. As a still young specialist task, UBB has a relatively low degree of standardisation. The practice is diverse, which is also due to the variety of construction projects, the diverse bases in environmental and nature conservation law as well as the relevant objects of protection in each case.
