On June 13th, at 6:00 pm PST, the San Francisco Dynamo User Group and the AIA San Francisco welcomes Samuel Barcenas, from CONSTRUBIM - Mexico, on a discussion about how the AEC industry is impacted by technology change.

Featured Presentation: 

How Design Technology drives Change on Project Delivery

Samuel Barcenas has researched how new technology changes our perception, visualization and understanding of projects, and how it redefines the relationship between traditional phases of design and construction, influenced by the advent of new tools and processes, such as Dynamo. He will wrap the discussion hightlighting the importance of drafting a new vision of technology, its inputs and its transformative impact in the AEC industry and the future of cities.

Samuel Barcenas, works as a BIM Specialist at CONSTRUBIM, a +40 employee firm based in Mexico City focused on Parametric Design, BIM Management & Modeling, and advaced applications in Revit, Navisworks, Cloud and Big Data. With +10 years of experiece in the AEC industry, Samuel is passionate about technology and how it helps improve design results and products.

“Architecture is one of those things in life that involves society and arts, in a way it can actually change perception for its citizens and our livability”.
