There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Although digital technology has drastically changed nearly every aspect of our lives, the architectural and building industries have not yet given up some traditional practices like hand labor and drafted drawings. With positive implications ranging from improving sustainability and safety to significant savings in time and money, building information modeling (BIM) is not just another tool for architects and builders. In fact, many leaders and early adopters believe it is the future of the industry. Join us in this critical exploration of key issues surrounding BIM from the perspective of architects, owners, engineers, and contractors.
