Inaugural Building Performance and BIM zone 

Building Information Modelling (BIM) is the hottest development in the building industry. It is a new tool to holistically manage information relating to construction projects from planning stage, to design, construction and operational stages. As BIM has become popular in the sector, BIM Day, co-organised by the Construction Industry Council, will be held on the first day of the fair (29 October). Visitors will learn more about the benefits and applications of BIM through a series of seminars and project presentations. This hopefully will enhance the driving force to the industry. The debut of Building Performance and BIM zone will feature related products and services.
