to engage the project from the start of the design process with ahands-on approach and thereby get a good understanding of the design plans and concepts andaccordingly provide feedback to the architect team (if necessary). As a result, the intern was ableto attend preliminary site meetings and see the complex flow of ideas and expression of thoughtsand concerns, many of which the intern observed - could have been resolved and betteradministered if technology platforms such as Building Information Modeling (BIM) wereemployed for the project. When the architectural and engineering drawings were pinned in the siteoffice and discussed, the intern had noticed the engineer making observations by foreseeingpotential clashes between architectural
