SYNOPSIS   

This half-day workshop introduces engineers to the practical concept of BIM interoperability and how information can flow between different digital engineering platforms. Through live demonstrations, participants will see how a BIM model can be developed, transferred for further engineering analysis, updated, and brought back into the BIM environment.

The workshop focuses on information exchange, model coordination, engineering decision-making, and connected digital workflows, giving participants a practical understanding of how BIM can support more integrated engineering practice.
