The catalyst for today’s conversation? The BIM Comic.🎙️ In This Episode:Andrei CRIȘAN is a university lecturer at Politehnica University Timișoara with a PhD in structural engineering and a long-standing interest in why good ideas suffer during implementation. His academic research covers structural mechanics, FEM, BIM-enabled information management, and standards-driven workflows. Industry exposure added realism and a few cautionary tales. As Head of the Center for Innovation and Technological Transfer at Politehnica University Timişoara, Andrei tries to keep research, practice, and optimism aligned. This comic exists because standards and footnotes have limits.Jan KARLSHØJ holds a PhD in civil engineering and an MBA, and works as a Program Manager at theTechnical University of Denmark. With more than 20 years of experience from the construction industry, he brings both academic and practical perspectives to BIM and digitalisation. He works where BIM, digitalisation, and the built environment meet (preferably with fewer PDFs and better data). Jan is a long-standing advocate of open standards and is actively involved in buildingSMART. In this comic, he contributes by reviewing the technical content and ensuring alignment with ISO 19650 and openBIM principles - while keeping the story grounded in real-world practice.Nicholas NISBET is a seasoned builder of bridges — not the physical kind, but the digital and informational ones that connect people, tools, and data. As buildingSMART UK&I vice-chairman and former technical coordinator for the UK & Ireland chapter, his work targets the very heart of BIM interoperability: how structured information moves, transforms, and remains usable across the lifecycle of built assets. Nick has been involved in open standards, model support, semantic exchange, and the ethical use of BIM data. His leadership reflects a commitment to making the abstract standards, schema, and protocols practical and effective in real projects.If this conversation inspired you, don’t forget to subscribe, share the episode, and follow DT Vector for more insights into the future of real estate, technology, and investment.#BIM #DTVector #BIMComic #ConstructionTech
