This month we are pleased to have Richard Taylor from Ideate talking all sorts of I.

I as in Information; the literal and figurative fulcrum and center-point of BIM.

Richard will be followed by an open session with The Consortium, where you can bring any Q's to which we will provide some A's... and yes, I mean question and answer time, so bring it -and we'll try to help :)

Now back to the main presentation...and I paraphrase:

Excel permeates the AECO industries as a workhorse for a wide range of BIM related tasks; from cost estimating to data management, scheduling and (the oft cited herein) more...

In this presentation Mr. Taylor will cover and uncover Excel processes and functions used (and perhaps under-used) in AECO.

Learning Objectives:

• How to generate Pivot Tables to show counts and Area summaries.

• Create a drop-down list of all Space Types so they can be used to assign values to Spaces

• Concatenate

• Replace & Substitute

• Dissect the use of IF/THEN statements to calculate fixture quantity requirements based on the number of occupants...

See you there!!!
