Great topic, it was an eye opener. I am looking forward (or listening to your presentation) to how quantity surveyors can transform their firms to practically adapt to 5D BIM.
thanks for the video as a QS myself going through the initial stage of BIM implementation I can say that demand is not there for many reasons I think mainly because most of software are very expensive, they tend to create silos-like environments where open exchange is discouraged there are many publications and tutorials on BIM but very few are at a level where professionals can start using it If BIM were to be shown from a very practical standpoint it would gain immediate traction, otherwise it sounds like a bunch of gibberish stuff to many BIM+QS is a match made in heaven, but needs to be properly supported for people (including clients) to fully appreciate its benefits
