To facilitate checking of different floor areas in digital general building plans (GBP) in Building Information Modelling (BIM) format, the Buildings Department (BD) and the Lands Department (LandsD) have jointly commissioned a consultant to develop a common area calculation methodology and plug-in tools of two native BIM software (i.e. REVIT and ArchiCAD) to streamline the data extraction and conduct automated checking of floor areas against the requirements under the Buildings Ordinance and lease conditions (the BIM Area Tool*).The BIM Area Tool, which may also serve as a design review tool, saves time and manpower in verifying numerical accuracy and in updating and rechecking when amendments to the design are required, thereby enhancing quality and certainty of the submissions.In this webinar, representatives from BD and LandsD will brief you on the key features of the BIM Area Tool and demonstrate how the created automation could make the complicated calculation process easy, dispensing with going through a mountain of detailed requirements in regulations/practice notes. They will also introduce the BIM Area Tool's smart functions for automated parameter input, data quality check and batch import of computation results to facilitate the preparation of calculation sheets for GBP submission.Members with job duties involving GBP submission to BD and LandsD should not miss this opportunity to equip yourself with better knowledge on this newly developed BIM Area Tool. *The BIM Area Tool is available in BD Website and LandsD Website for free download and use. Attendees are encouraged to download the tool and template for trial and view the relevant video guides before the webinar. Speakers: Representatives from Buildings Department and the Lands Department Should you have any queries, please contact Mr. FUNG (email: dthub@cic.hk). Remarks: An electronic copy of CPD attendance certificate will be issued to participants with over 80% attendance within one month after the live webinar. Any attendance on replay sessions after webinar will not be considered for CPD attendance certificate. Replay video is now exclusive for i-Club members, please click here to join i-Club.

CD Talks （Construction Digitalisation Talk）是一个全新的网络研讨会系列，旨在匯聚具有远见的行业专家、思想领袖和具有前瞻性的实践者，探讨和分享他们将数码化应用于建筑项目的经验。CD Talks将深入探讨建筑数码化的最新趋势、最佳实践和成功案例。 今年的主题将是「2023香港建造业CDE-综合数码共用平台大奖 - 机构类別得奖者分享」。 主题及讲者： 备註：在直播时段出席率达80%以上的参加者将会在网上研讨会结束后一个月内收到电子出席证书。任何重温时段的出席率将不会计算在内。 重播影片现在只供i-Club会员观看，请按此处加入i-Club。 如有查询，请与蔡小姐（电邮: bim@cic.hk ; 电话: 2100 9034）联络。

为进一步促进建造数码化，推广数码分身在建造业的应用，建造业议会（议会）于九龙湾MegaBox设立建造业议会数码分身中心。 数码分身是现实世界实体和流程的虚拟分身，以特定的频率和拟真度与现实世界进行同步更新。全新的讲座及工作坊旨在让参与者了解数码分身的概念、其好处以及在项目生命週期不同阶段的应用。 数码分身讲座及工作坊 导赏团 – 数码分身技术的实际应用及智慧工地安全系统（SSSS）的技术展示 讲座 – 项目和组织中採用建筑信息模拟（BIM）的准备工作 互动工作坊 – 建筑信息模拟检视器 (备註：未来数月将举办更多同类型讲座。) 本次活动适合所有对学习数码分身技术感兴趣的人士参加。立即登记数码分身讲座及工作坊，让您在不断发展的建筑行业中保持领先地位。 参与是次活动可获3小时持续专业发展时数，电子出席证书将会于活动后一个月内以电邮形式发放予出席者。电子出席证书上的名字会使用报名表的登记名字作依据。 如有查询，请与蔡小姐联络 (电邮: bim@cic.hk; 电话: 2100 9034) 。
