A new online forum for questions regarding building information modelling (BIM) has debuted in its beta version.

Hosted by buildingSMART Canada, the free resource can be accessed at http://forum.buildingsmartcanada.ca[2]. (CSC is a stakeholder through the Institute for BIM in Canada [IBC][3].) The forum is supported by industry experts, and offers a unique opportunity to discuss issues and topics relevant to Canadian industry implementation.

For more on BIM, specifically the need for a national mandate on its use[4], check out a recent Construction Canada article by buildingSMART Canada’s Communications committee chair, Erik Poirier, PhD, LEED AP.
