When needed, the owner may have to add new information after changes to the build to keep their information right.īy following these steps, teams can work together to give an owner the information they need. The owner keeps this information to check what their team did and uses some of it for looking after the build. Īt the end of the job, the team shares all the information with the owner. Before giving the owner this information, the team also checks the information before it is also checked by the owner.

#XKCD SIMPLE WRITER ISO#
As the convenor of the CEN TC/442 and ISO TC/59 SC/13 BIM terminology working groups, author of the UK BIM Alliance‘s Constructing Plan Language Charter ( #ConstructingPlainLanguage!), as well as the author of There’s No BIM Like Home, I was inspired by this book. However, my favorite of Randall’s creation is the book ‘ Thing Explainer’ and its premise, to explain ‘things’ only using the one thousand most common English words. Many of these comic strips, like the one on Standards, really resonate with me. For years I have enjoyed the science-based comic strip XKCD, by Randall Monroe.
