Preconstruction Lifecycle | May 20-22 2019 | Dallas, Texas
Advancing Preconstruction & Estimating 2019 will bring together contractors, clients and designers to discover best practices and tools for the entire preconstruction life-cycle from initial project planning through operations handover.

CIQS – British Columbia Dinner Event
What the heck is virtual design and construction?
How BIM helps us (and can probably help you)
Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) have been buzzwords in the AEC industry for years, yet, the Canadian industry as a whole has been slow to adopt these processes. For Turner Construction Company, our use of VDC is driven by the specific needs of each individual project, and our use of BIM makes us better builders.
This presentation will outline the various processes and technologies we use to build digitally before building in reality, mitigating real world issues such as coordination complexities, rework and unforeseen circumstances that arise during the course of construction. From small tenant improvement projects through to complex multi-phased core and shell construction, this presentation will outline the tools we use to succeed.
Presenter: Kate Kirwan, CM-BIM
VDC Manager at Turner Construction Company
Kate Kirwan is the VDC Manager for Turner Construction Company in Canada. Her international work in the AEC industry began in Dublin, Ireland, where she worked as a conservation architect for the Irish government before moving to Canada in 2010. Her experience encompasses various construction types including complex new builds, renovations, and highly technical M&E builds. Kate works to promote BIM use throughout the AEC industry in Canada and she has collaborated with and presented to numerous consultant groups and organizations. Her previous speaking experience includes presentations at conferences such as Autodesk University, BuildEX Vancouver and the Lean Construction Institute (LCI) Canada.

The Project
Ground has been broken and construction of Calgary’s long-awaited $1.4-billion cancer facility is now underway with completion expected sometime in 2023. The 127,000-square-metre facility will significantly increase the capacity for cancer care for southern Alberta, with 12 radiation vaults, 160 in-patient beds, more than 100 patient exam rooms and over 100 chemotherapy chairs. With the population living longer than ever before, the frequency of cancer is increasing, resulting in more individuals and their families being impacted. Like our client’s interdisciplinary approach to cancer care, PCL believes that the collaborative nature of design-build projects produces benefits to our clients and their patients.
Scheduled for completion in 2023, the Calgary Cancer Centre will be the leading healthcare facility and educational hub for cancer services in southern Alberta. PCL is proud to work on a facility that will support an interdisciplinary philosophy that accommodates research, education, and patient and family-based care, focused on improved patient outcomes.
Featured Speaker
Toby Hendrie is currently the Project Director for PCL’s $1.1 billion Calgary Cancer Centre project. Toby started his career as a contractor’s quantity surveyor in the United Kingdom 30 years ago, and joined PCL upon moving to Canada in 1998. Since, he has received his Gold Seal certification in construction, and travelled internationally to work on one of PCL’s largest projects – the $1 billion Victorian Comprehensive Cancer Centre, in Melbourne, Australia. Toby spent four and a half years on the Victorian Comprehensive Cancer Centre project as Construction Manager, leading his team from contract award to opening day. Toby’s tenacity for construction excellence and innovation is evident in all projects he manages, motivating his team to be the best they can be, while safely completing projects on time and on budget. Toby’s presentation will provide some insight into the Victorian Comprehensive Care Centre and the Calgary Cancer Centre projects, the challenges that were faced, and the opportunities the design-build model can offer.
