View this recorded webcast to learn design strategies that deliver more program space for less capital dollars. Here, Tom Nelson details solutions that maximize efficiencies, create flexible spaces, and incorporate sustainable planning principles without jeopardizing project budgets. He examines the new, highly-efficient Medical Education Facility at the University of California, Irvine that is pursing LEED Gold certification. The project team utilized BIM (Building Information Modeling) to capitalize on its ability to facilitate early energy modeling, leverage embedded information, and streamline workflow. Significant benefits are realized using a design process that incorporates early analysis and integrated sustainable design strategies resulting in space and energy efficiencies that save dollars over the life of the facility.
