Building Information Modelling (BIM) for Historic Buildings and Built Environment

Discover BIM for historic buildings and the built environment

On this two-week course, you’ll unlock the secrets of preserving our heritage through Building Information Modelling (BIM). You’ll discover how BIM protects and conserves our cultural legacy as you gain a solid foundation of the benefits and challenges of applying BIM in historical contexts.

You’ll explore the ethical considerations and cultural implications of BIM as well as how it can enhance conservation efforts, ensuring a greener future for our heritage sites.

By the end, you’ll know how to use BIM in the preservation, restoration, and ongoing management of historic buildings, ensuring their long-term sustainability.

Gain an understanding of heritage preservation

You’ll start by exploring why heritage preservation is important as you unpack the key principles and processes of BIM for heritage projects.

Immersing yourself in real-world case studies and engaging with fellow learners through quizzes and discussions, you’ll enhance your understanding and practical application of BIM for heritage preservation.

Unpack BIM technologies

You’ll then develop your expertise in integrating BIM technologies and tools in heritage preservation.

This will arm you with the practical skills to apply BIM to address the unique challenges associated with managing historic built environments.

Learn from the experts at Universiti Malaya

Finally, you’ll explore the use of BIM in analysing the condition and deterioration of historic structures, facilitating informed decision-making for conservation and restoration.

Guided by the specialists at Universiti Malaya, you’ll finish the course with a solid understanding of BIM and how it can be used to benefit historic buildings and the built environment.

This course is designed for those who are passionate about historic buildings and the preservation of our built environment.

You should have a basic understanding of architectural design and construction principles. Familiarity with concepts related to BIM would also be helpful but not essential.
