Developing green and digital skills for the use of BIM at end-of-life practices

Developing Green and Digital Skills for the Use of BIM at End-of-Life Practices

Duration: March 2024 – February 2026

Funding: This project is supported by the Erasmus+ Programme under the Key Action 2 – Cooperation partnerships in vocational education and training.

Consortium: The BIM4D project is a collaboration between six organizations from Greece, Slovenia, Germany, Belgium, and Italy, bringing together diverse expertise from the construction and educational sectors.

Objective: The primary goal of the BIM4D project is to enhance the capabilities within the construction industry to use Building Information Modeling (BIM) technologies effectively at the end-of-life phase of building projects. This involves developing both green and digital skills among professionals to facilitate sustainable deconstruction practices and efficient resource management.

Activities:

  • Analysis of Current BIM Uses: Evaluating how BIM is currently utilized across different countries and sectors within the construction industry.
  • Development of Training Programs: Crafting and delivering comprehensive training that equips professionals with the necessary skills to utilize BIM in deconstruction and end-of-life processes.
  • Strengthening BIM Applications: Promoting the integration of BIM technologies to enhance sustainability in building deconstruction.
  • Dissemination and Exploitation: Ensuring that the knowledge and tools developed are shared widely to maximize their impact on the industry.

Impact: The BIM4D project aims to make significant advancements in how building projects are managed at their end-of-life, promoting sustainability, reducing waste, and contributing to the circular economy. By enhancing skills and knowledge, the project also supports the labor market transition towards more digital and environmentally conscious practices.
