GSA Talks About 3D-4D BIM Program

The web site for the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) includes an interesting and informative 12-minute video highlighting the group's national 3D-4D BIM program. The video includes comments from a variety of experts and shows multi-dimensional BIM drawing examples. The video also contains valuable insight into the future of BIM; including a prediction that two dimensional drawings will be absolete within the next 10 years. Worth checking out.
