In this special series of the Smarter Building podcast, hosts Nicole & Richard sat down with a few of the fantastic line up of guest speakers live from Symetri's Nordic BIM Summit in Stockholm, Sweden.
Watch the fourth episode, where we chat with Jochen Teizer, a professor of Construction Technologies and Director of Construction Automation at the Technology University of Denmark. Hear how a life changing moment inspired his interest in advancing construction safety and how digital twins can contribute. They also discuss the benefits of using virtual reality and gamification in construction safety training, emphasising the need for organisations to start small and collaborate with academia to implement digital twin technology effectively.
š CHAPTERS:
0:12 Introduction
0:38 What is your background and how did you join the university?
1:18 What's the best way to get involved in this industry? What should people be studying?
2:37 What led you to explore digital twins, IoT on construction site and making it safer? What took you to that route initially and what problems were you trying to solve?
5:30 What's your interpretation of a digital twin?
6:43 What's your view of BIM?
8:30 Do you think the construction industry is in a place where we are capturing and utilising data well enough to feed a digital twin?
10:22 Do you see any areas or geo's leading the way in terms of using digital twins?
12:31 How did the gamification and VR come about and what are the benefits of doing that?
15:50 What's your recommendation to those organisations who haven't done any of this and how would you go about it?
17:15 Could the government be doing more?
19:38 What's next for you and the Technology University of Denmark?
