BIM: Audio Conference Presents Legal Implications

 

As more project teams are taking advantage of the latest in Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology, understanding and addressing the legal implications in moving from a 2-D world to a 3-D world is essential, and until now has gone unaddressed. Now the AGC of America and other leading construction associations drafting and endorsing ConsensusDOCS contracts will soon publish a BIM Addendum.

In anticipation of that addendum, National AGC presents an Audio Conference that will illustrate how to utilize the contractual best practices associated with projects using BIM. This includes a clear understanding of project participants’ roles, responsibilities and risks from the start of the project. You will learn how to optimize project efficiencies offered by BIM technology and successfully navigate through the potential legal pitfalls associated with BIM.

Listen to two of the drafters of this forthcoming document and find out how you can ensure that everyone is on the same virtual page for your next project utilizing BIM.
After participating in this Audio Conference, you will be able to:
      • navigate the legal risks associated with BIM such as
            o design liability
            o construction liability
            o insurance implications
      • understand the necessary content of a BIM Execution Plan
      • identify contractual best practices for projects that use BIM
      • understand the intellectual property rights related to the Model
      • know the differences between federated vs. distinct component models
