The 4th Virtual Design World Cup
The 4th Student BIM&VR Design Contest on Cloud Services
-Competition for designing an advanced construction
engineering-works on Cloud, making full use of BIM/CIM and VR!-
Theme 2014
"Sustainable Olympic Town in Tokyo Bay 2020"
|
This is an international design competition for students to compete amongst each other in designing an innovative architecture, bridge and city design using BIM/CIM &VR technologies.
Every year students compete for the top prize which is given to an outstanding work outlining a predefined theme in the aspect of design, innovative idea, and creativity. They plan and design their work based on the theme and then run a simulation. Their final model will be presented to the judges in a form of a script for evaluation.
To assist students with the production of their work, we plan to carry out workshops and seminars. We will also support the students who will make use of software from now on. Also you can communicate and collect a lot of information without having to visit the local area by participating various workshop reviews through the Web and VR forum ( 3D cloud BBS ). The script of VR data created by FORUM8's software and a "Concept poster" (A1 size (lateral) in PDF format) are required for the final submission and the judgment is performed on the basis of "VR Cloud judgment". We would like you to use FORUM8's BIM software and VR technologies by all means and consider this competition as an opportunity to create your masterpiece. We encourage students from different departments majoring in different field of studies to make a team to work on their model together to demonstrate that BIM/CIM can be used in various discipline.

Theme2014 : "Sustainable Olympic Town in Tokyo Bay 2020"

Tokyo is striding ahead towards 2020 Olympic games the city will host to provide easy mobility and comfortable stay for visitors from around the world and to live up to the expectation for its regeneration into an advanced environmentally friendly city weighed at the metropolis ever since it won the bid. In particular, its harbor region, an industrial land that is recently transforming into a city equipped with complex urban features, will become the main venue of the Olympic and the biggest frontier of the development radiating out from the heart of Tokyo at the same time. The theme for this year's VDWC will focus on part of this area, the Shikiba/Tatsumi region within which new athletic stadiums are centralized to be specific. However, rather than just designing the new Olympic games' stadiums themselves, we also expect you to consider the urban design of this entire region. The reason being the demand for new ideas on how traffic, accommodation, and food and beverage facilities that will serve the needs of the fans during the Olympic can be used effectively even after the games, which is imperative considering the region's long-term development. (The temporary image of the Olympic stadiums that is imported into the UC-win/Road data and will be provided to you is based on the actual image of the stadiums presented by the city of Tokyo, however you are free to alter it)
We hope that you submit the kind of proposal that not only avoids unnecessary investment and excessive burden but also promises development of the harbor region into a sustainable urban waterfront which offers an attractive and valuable environment in both scenic and ecological sense. Speaking of this year's theme, as long as your work is in line with the theme itself and concerns the specified region, it does not matter whether your work covers part or whole of that region. One of the characteristics of the annual VDWC's theme is in its size, complexity, and comprehensiveness. This is because we expect each student to take advantage of the benefit gained from teamwork, one of the features of BIM, to produce an excellent result of the collaborative work done by themselves and their teammates from various fields of study.

The use UC-win/Road is mandatory for the creation of the work. In addition, contestants must use at least one more FORUM8 software/solution to create their work of art, which must have the element of the BIM/CIM and VR and the capability of being used in these disciplines. The works will be evaluated how the new design was created in terms of the availability of BIM/CIM and also VR, duration of creating work and its quality, logicality and technical capabilities, sensuousnessand originality and presentation skills will be evaluated.
