Following the publishing of the ISO 19650 series of standards for BIM, we invited Paul Shillcock to NBS HQ to present to the North East BIM community.
In this video, Paul explains what this will mean for those working on BIM projects that adopt these standards.
We also heard from Dr Stephen Hamil, NBS Director of Innovation, who gave an update and overview of Uniclass 2015 which is the classification system of choice in the UK Annex attached to the new international standards.
