AI meets BIM: Emerging risks and opportunities for design consultants
Date: Thursday 25 June 2026 (1:00 - 2:00pm AEST)
Artificial Intelligence is no longer a future concept, it is rapidly becoming part of everyday BIM and digital engineering workflows. Join Jeames Hanley, CTO at FK Australia, for an insightful discussion on how AI is transforming the way design consultants work. From design automation and intelligent clash detection to documentation and project analytics, AI presents exciting opportunities to improve efficiency and project outcomes. However, these benefits also bring new challenges. What are the professional risks? Who remains accountable when AI influences design decisions? What safeguards should organisations have in place?
This session will provide a practical overview of current AI applications within BIM, emerging liability considerations and strategies for managing risk while embracing innovation.
Whether you are an engineer, architect, project manager, BIM specialist or design consultant, this webinar will help you better understand the opportunities and responsibilities that come with AI-enabled project delivery.
CPD: 1 formal hour
