Why Fulton Trotter embrace BIM
MacKillop Catholic College Library – Warnervale NSW
• Why embark on BIM unless you benefit from it • FTA Clients don’t require BIM • FTA are embracing BIM as a process
• Efficiencies – quicker production • Quality – less variations • More time for design
• Future delivery process for all construction projects

Case Studies
• Hinkler Hall of Aviation • Wongaburra • Tamborine Mountain College • Faith Lutheran College
Hinkler Hall of Aviation
3D Shop Drawings • Completed in 2007 • 3D Structural Steel Shop drawings produced in Tekla. • Quick and easy review process • Model reviewed outside of ArchiCAD • 1800 shop drawings produced but not necessary to review in
as much detail.
Hinkler Hall of Aviation 3D Steel Shop Drawing Feedback
• Upgrade of Aged Care Beds and utilising an undercroft space. • 2530 Floor to underside of slab • Habitable Administration Space required • Modeling the answer
Wongaburra
Wongaburra
Tamborine Mountain College Communicating with a Virtual Model • Pilot project using Graphisoft BIMX
Software. • Issued to Contractor for trialing on
Site.
Tamborine Mountain College
Faith Lutheran College
• Pilot Project for fully coordinated Consultant Team Model • Creation of workflows for multi-platform team

• Cost $10k timecost to test and develop workflows, not a hidden overhead. Now in place a good investment.
• Delivered the project with -0.3% in Latent, Authority, Documentation Variations. Client Variations 1.4%
• Contractor didn’t embrace technology or 3D shop drawings
The Future – where are we heading
• Everything is modelled • All notation automated, derived straight from the model • Specification & Schedules generated directly from the model • Model checking software will perform majority of QA tasks • Developing process of communication with our QS • Developing processes with our builders so they benefit
File Types – Issuing your Work • Why would you send a native file type?
• You don’t send a word or excel file, you issue a PDF.
• Disadvantages of sending IFC • Data can be lost or not transferred correctly. • Workflows can require more effort.
• Advantages of sending IFC • You control the information you want to issue. • More effort required by your peers to recreate your
objects. • Can be opened in many more software packages used
by the construction industry.
