BIM4hERITAGE Annual conference: Learning from the past to preserve the future
london, ​June 27th 2019

The tragic events that happened at Notre-Dame Cathedral on the 15th April 2019 left the world in shock. Why did this happen? How could it occur? Could stakeholders have done more to prevent it? 
This BIM4Heritage Conference, June 27th in London, will analyse the issue of digital asset management of heritage structures and, through lessons that might be learnt from this tragedy, what else might be done to help prevent it happening again. Digital technologies such as recording, documentation and Building Information Modelling (BIM) can all contribute important information on the fabric, components and spaces that make up a heritage structure as well as acting as a crisis management tool to support urgent interventions or reconstructions of such iconic monuments. The Conference will host a range of expert speakers and researchers to explore these themes and to showcase successful case studies, in order to learn from the past to preserve the future.​

Our managing director, Peter Cox, will be speaking at the event. Free tickets for the event can be found on Eventbrite.

RECENT EVENTS

STBA & SPAB CONFERENCE
June 2019, LONDON

The 2019 STBA-SPAB Conference & Expo - Sustainability of Traditional Buildings - will again take place at The Gallery, 75 Cowcross Street, London, EC1M 6EL - kindly provided by Alan Baxter.
The sustainability of old buildings is reliant on their ongoing use and reuse in the modern world. Understanding how they function (building physics), and how we should be maintaining and upgrading them are key to their continued usefulness – particularly in view of the climate crisis and increased occupant demands.
The 2019 STBA-SPAB Conference & Expo will look at current research, the situation of regulations and initiatives, as well as the skills training that enable our built environment to include a wealth of healthy buildings with heritage and aesthetic value. 
We shall look at the important role materials play, hear from those successfully carrying out retrofit/refurbishment and receive an update on the STBA large-scale pilot of retrofit using the whole-house approach (funded by the BEIS Building Thermal Efficiency Innovation Fund).
