Digital Construction and BIM in Greece

19 February 2020, Athens

The Technical Chamber of Greece is a public legal entity and its members are all qualified licensed engineers in Greece (104,000 active members) and companies (construction and technical). It is an active member of the International Engineering Community and the National Member representing Greece in several International and European Organizations. On February 19, 2020 TCG will host an event under the title “Digital Construction and BIM in Greece” at its premises (4 Nikis st, 1^st floor, Syntagma).The event is organized under the umbrella of EU BIM Task Group National Events.

Scope

The construction industry faces many challenges such as climate change, resource scarcity, fragmentation and technological advances. Digital transformation in the construction sector is characterized by a fusion of advanced technologies and the integration of physical and digital systems and their effect on the built environment and energy efficiency.

Building Information Modelling, BIM is a process that involves the structured sharing and coordination of digital information about a construction throughout the lifecycle of the asset. The potential benefits of digitalization and BIM within the construction industry are numerous.

BIM is mentioned in the EU procurement directive as a mandatory requirement for public tenders, in EU member states. (Austria, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, Spain).

The event aims to present the status of BIM in Europe, the opportunities that occur from the use of this digital tool and how it leads to the path of the digitalization of the construction sector. European practices and experiences, governmental politics, technical standards and issues regarding the implementation of BIM are few of the topics that will be discussed.

Furthermore, a session is dedicated on mapping the needs and difficulties in implementing BIM in Greece. Discussing ways how to overcome obstacles will help to visualize the built environment digital future in Greece.
