As the pace of change increases, many organizations are discovering that traditional ways of working are no longer enough. \u00a0\u00a0In the first of two innovation forums at AU 2013, Autodesk invited guest speakers to talk about how more collaborative, integrated, and holistic approaches can reveal unexpected ways to transform traditional processes and create amazing outcomes. <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"asset-img-link\" href=\"\/app\/uploads\/autodesk\/6a017c3334c51a970b019b02224ae7970b-pi\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"asset asset-image at-xid-6a017c3334c51a970b019b02224ae7970b image-full img-responsive\" title=\"1\" src=\"\/app\/uploads\/autodesk\/6a017c3334c51a970b019b02224ae7970b-800wi\" alt=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p> Bruce Bell, managing director for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facit-homes.com\">FACIT Homes<\/a>, introduced the potential construction site of the future, where the path between design intent and the physical artifact is streamlined.\u00a0 This UK-based company designs and builds homes by extending BIM to on-site component fabrication, enabling them to\u00a0 deliver a physical outcome (a home) rather than a digital artifact (a drawing or model of the home).\u00a0 Its patented D-Process exports BIM models to an on-site computer controlled cutter that helps the company dramatically improve quality control, predictability, cost effectiveness, speed and produce buildings with a lower carbon footprint. <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"asset-img-link\" href=\"\/app\/uploads\/autodesk\/6a017c3334c51a970b019b0222ccd6970d-pi\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"asset asset-image at-xid-6a017c3334c51a970b019b0222ccd6970d img-responsive\" title=\"2\" src=\"\/app\/uploads\/autodesk\/6a017c3334c51a970b019b0222ccd6970d-800wi\" alt=\"2\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p> The Denver International Airport, the 10<sup>th<\/sup> busiest in the world, is in the midst of a massive new construction project that has become a world-class example of BIM transparency and effectiveness.\u00a0\u00a0 The <a href=\"http:\/\/flydenver.com\/hotelandtransitcenter\">DIA Hotel and Transit Center Program<\/a>,\u00a0managed by HNTB and Parsons, designed by Gensler\u00a0and under construction by MHS (Mortenson, Hunt, Saunders) A Tri-Venture with enabling work\u00a0provided by Kiewit.\u00a0 The project will add a 519-room hotel and transit center to serve all RTD buses and the future RTD East Rail Line, which will connect DIA to downtown Denver. Eddy Krygiel, Architect at HNTB, explained how the design, engineering and construction companies collaboratively developed a virtual model of the entire project that can be used as a single decision making platform. This move from disconnected stakeholders to interconnected method of collaboration helps AEC firms deliver more value across the lifecycle of increasingly complex projects.\u00a0 The\u00a0model not only creates a centralized system for managing the Hotel and Transit Center through its operational life, but also provides the Airport with a framework to deploy\u00a0facility operations and maintenance. <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"asset-img-link\" href=\"\/app\/uploads\/autodesk\/6a017c3334c51a970b019b0222d00a970d-pi\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"asset asset-image at-xid-6a017c3334c51a970b019b0222d00a970d image-full img-responsive\" title=\"3\" src=\"\/app\/uploads\/autodesk\/6a017c3334c51a970b019b0222d00a970d-800wi\" alt=\"3\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p> Pete Kelsey of Autodesk next introduced a new project on which Autodesk and the National Park Service are collaborating at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nps.gov\/valr\/index.htm\">USS Arizona site at Pearl Harbor<\/a> in Hawaii.\u00a0 In partnership with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hdrinc.com\">HDR<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.samhirota.com\">Sam Hirota, Inc<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oicinc.com\">Oceanic Imaging Consultants<\/a>, the team combined terrestrial laser scanning, SONAR, photogrammetry and underwater laser scanning to create a highly detailed and accurate model with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autodesk.com\/products\/recap\/overview\">Autodesk ReCap<\/a>.\u00a0Results of this work will be available next year. <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"asset-img-link\" href=\"\/app\/uploads\/autodesk\/6a017c3334c51a970b019b0222d4e2970d-pi\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"asset asset-image at-xid-6a017c3334c51a970b019b0222d4e2970d image-full img-responsive\" title=\"4\" src=\"\/app\/uploads\/autodesk\/6a017c3334c51a970b019b0222d4e2970d-800wi\" alt=\"4\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.stonetronix.com\">Stone Librande<\/a>, Creative Director at EA\/Maxis, spoke about <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simcity.com\">SimCity<\/a>, the videogame series that has turned many into armchair urban planners.\u00a0 The latest version of this game contains a powerful rules-based engine that let\u2019s citizens (players) simulate the evolution of a city with multiple scenarios, and has many similarities with the tools used in sophisticated professional infrastructure design applications. <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"asset-img-link\" href=\"\/app\/uploads\/autodesk\/6a017c3334c51a970b019b02225cbb970b-pi\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"asset asset-image at-xid-6a017c3334c51a970b019b02225cbb970b img-responsive\" title=\"5\" src=\"\/app\/uploads\/autodesk\/6a017c3334c51a970b019b02225cbb970b-800wi\" alt=\"5\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p> The final speaker was Neil Hrushowy, PhD, MS, acting manager of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sf-planning.org\/ftp\/CDG\/index.htm\">City Design Group<\/a> (CDG)_ in the San Francisco Planning Department.\u00a0 You might say, the CDG is playing SimCity for real, having amassed and applied 3D digital models to visualize, simulate and analyze a wide range of planning issues and engage the public with a sort of 3D sandbox to describe various solutions and gather input..\u00a0 Hrushowy explained how his group brings together technologies from 2D, 3D, GIS, Reality Capture and others into a single decision-making environment. <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"asset-img-link\" href=\"\/app\/uploads\/autodesk\/6a017c3334c51a970b019b0222643b970b-pi\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"asset asset-image at-xid-6a017c3334c51a970b019b0222643b970b image-full img-responsive\" title=\"6\" src=\"\/app\/uploads\/autodesk\/6a017c3334c51a970b019b0222643b970b-800wi\" alt=\"6\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p> \u201cThere is a movement in San Francisco to shift planning and design decisions closer to the residents.\u00a0 Technology and innovation have been playing a remarkable role in making this happen,\u201d said Hrushowy. Closing the forum, Autodesk fellow Tom Wujec noted we are entering the age of optimization, as represented by the innovators presenting today.
