Trimble technology AEC lab coming to Scotland’s Edinburgh Napier University
Trimble has announced plans to establish a state-of-the-art technology Lab for architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) at Scotland’s Edinburgh Napier University. The lab will expand the university’s leadership in training and research in 3D building design, digital fabrication and the sustainable built environment.
The Trimble Technology Lab will provide students enrolled in Edinburgh Napier’s School of Engineering & the Built Environment (SEBE), including Architectural Technology, Civil Engineering and Project Management programs, hands-on experience with Trimble solutions. Applications of these solutions range from scanning buildings or sites, design and 3D printing of architectural building models and digital fabrication to implementing construction cost estimating and scheduling to improve productivity and reduce costs.
