Construction Brothers

This week we had on Issa Ramaji. We dive into digital twins and how they are more than a snapshot of what the building looks like. We talk about the functionality of digital twins and how they bring value to the table. We look at the move towards automation of the monitoring and operation of a building and how digital twins enable us to create historical and real-time data about the functions within the building.

Robert wants to bring trust into the construction industry by building it into the software.

Today, we take a day to reflect on the importance of knowing the pros and cons of college and apprenticeships. Ken Rusk really inspired us to give our personal experiences with these paths and what worked for us! We look at the cost of college and where that can lead. Our goal isn’t to say one is better than the other but to remind the future that they have more than one choice. Related LinksIntern Garrett’s EpisodeOrder Ken’s Book Thanks for listening!

Arash is an e-permitting advocate based out of Toronto, Canada. He has created a network of businesses, builders, owners, and architects that are pushing for the ability to approve building permits through PDF documents and from the model. E-permitting would allow for automation to be increased in checking requirements and codes and speed up the overall process from design to build. He brings some awesome insight to what we hope the future of permitting can look like in America! Related LinksArash’s LinkedInAECO Innovation Labs Thanks for listening!

Hamzah brought us a non-bias view of technology. We get to take a look into digital reality, 360 imaging, and other technologies and what is really under the hood of these techs. Hamzah’s position with Haskell’s Disrupt Tech puts him in a great position to be an authority on how these technologies can truly empower businesses and individuals. We broke out into a really awesome rabbit trail about implementation and how to create value in tasks that may feel menial. Related LinksHamzah’s LinkedInHaskell’s Website Thanks for listening!

We welcome René Morkos of ALICE Technology to talk about the next step in digitizing the construction industry. René inspiration came from seeing the underutilization of construction sites and a desire for it to be done better. He is doing to scheduling what BIM did to design. ALICE is parametrizing scheduling down to three algorithms that finds processes that will be part of the critical path even if the scheduling order changes. ALICE, at its core, is beneficial to any site that is constantly in flux… so all of them. Related LinksRené’s LinkedInALICE Technologies Thanks for listening!

Ken opens up strong talking about the wrong reasons to go to college. Related LinksKen’s LinkedInKen’s WebsiteOrder His BookKen’s Episode on Art of Manliness Thanks for listening!
