    Contents:
    Introduction -- The Practice of VDC -- VDC Services -- Information Models -- Case Studies -- Interview with Luis Tormenta, CEO of LiRo Group -- City Point Phase II -- East Side Access -- RFK Toll Plaza Rehabilitation -- Adult Behavioral Health Center at the Bronx Psychiatric Center -- VDC Tools -- Reference Documents -- Software Templates and Workflows -- VDC Specifications -- VDC Implementation Plan -- Classification Systems -- VDC Standards -- The Future of VDC.
    Summary: Implementing Virtual Design and Construction' using BIM outlines the team structure, software and production ecosystem needed for an effective Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) process through current real world case studies of projects both in development and under construction. It provides the reader with a better understanding of the successful implementation of VDC and Building Information Modeling (BIM), and the benefits to the project team throughout the design and construction process. For readers already familiar with VDC, the book will provide invaluable examples of best practices and real world solutions. Richly illustrated in color with actual VDC documentation, visualizations, and statistics, the reader is shown the real processes undertaken and outputs generated when working on high profile building information models. Online animations, interviews with practitioners, and downloadable templates, forms and files make this an interactive and highly engaging way to learn a crucial set of skills. While keeping up with current industry practice is a minimum requirement, this book goes further by helping you prepare for the next level of virtual design and construction.
