Scandi-BIM Tour - Final Stop - Denmark
Denmark. Land of Flatness. Bacon, and Massive bridge/tunnel that links Copenhagen to Malmo in Sweden (yes the one from The Bridge /Bron /Broen). It’s reading about Danish BIM Adoption that spurred the idea of the Scandi-BIM Tour. So Tak, to Denmark.
Also, land of very early BIM adoption.
Key points –
2001 – Danish Digital Building Initiative
2007 – 10 Building Owner Demands
2008 – Practical Use
2010 – The Cuneco Initiative (CCS with BIM Applications)
2013 – Updated with Digital Building Code
The Mandate started in 2007, with 7 BIM Mandates applied in 2013. 3 years ahead of the UK. This was for any public funded project over 700,000 Euros, or any projects over 2.7 Million Euros that had government grants.
The Mandate is spelt out in black and white also, which is always good:
ICT Coordination
Management of Digital Building Objects
Digital Communication and CDE
Use of Digital Building Models
Digital Quantity take off and Bids / Tenders
Digital Delivery of Documentation
Digital Inspection
So, the key word for the Danes is digital, in plain English, there is a collaborative federated model, costing, pdf documentation and digital snagging. Basically, Level 2, plus a bit more. Again, as the trend goes – IFC for model collaboration and investigation.
What else, well, they don’t use CAWS, obviously that’s a British thing, but they are developing CCS, a new Danish Classification system, which includes CEN (the EU BIM Mandate). There then seems to be heavy use of a system called Spine, which collaborates all the different standards and works as a classification system / manager.
Guidelines Documentation includes articles bu Danish Building and Property Agency and Ministry of Housing, Urban and Rural Affairs, and again with IFC, buildingSMART is a huge part of Denmark’s strategy.
How are they doing? Pretty well it appears. As an ultra early adopter, the experience path has already taken the crests and troughs that the UK is now experiencing, and can we learn from them? Hell yes.
In the conclusion to the ScandiBIM Tour I will be looking at the overall trends and patters, and information workflows, and how we can benefit from this information in the UK, whilst still conforming to 1192 and the associated documents and workflows.
BIMObject - Nordic favourite
As part of my ScandiBIM Tour, I thought I would take a look at the favourite softwares and apps that the guys over there use.
Revit is strong, as it is everywhere, however, there is a good following for ArchiCAD (these are both requested in some Nordic EIR equivalents), and there is a favour for Tekla and Solibri.
Some seem to use the NationalBIM Library, however, there is a Nordic equivalent, - BIMObject. In this report on linkedin, the company seem very happy with useage across the Nordic regions

Remember, google translate!
I’ve just recieved an email regarding BIMObject and LENA, a Script creator in which 100 developers are using this to develop BIM Native software. I’ll let you know more as I find out, but it sounds pretty intersting!
Remember though, BIMObject is mainly based for the Nordic market, and may not be suitable for your information and Spec flows! However, it does have a great settings part for NBS, Uniclass etc etc. So have a look!

Architectural software: Solibri
This is a short film showing the key features of Solibri software for architects & construction companies. I edited, produced and did the V/O in association with my colleague who provided the technical content.
