BDG Architects

Our first BDG Voice of Architecture and Design panel was a success! Our team had a great discussion on the ARE exams, licensing processes, study strategies, and the challenges they faced along the way. From tips and tricks to what worked (and what didn’t), it was a great opportunity to support and inspire our future architects. A huge thank you to our panelists: Amira Sallak, AIA, and Brian McRae, AIA, both licensed architects, along with Darrail Abercrombie, Dean Corsaro, and John Curnin, who are close to completing their exams and obtaining licensure. We appreciate you sharing your experiences and advice! #BDGArchitects #AREExam #ArchitectureLicensing #AIA #AIATampaBay

Discover how BDG Architects employs Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) in our BIM workflow. In this video, Vice President of Design Studio Mark Chmielewski, AIA, NCARB, discusses the significance of CFD in simulating fluid movement in and around buildings. This innovative tool informs critical design decisions related to ventilation, thermal comfort, wind speeds, and gas dispersion. Learn how CFD enhances our approach to parking garage ventilation, interior HVAC distribution, and rooftop occupant comfort analysis, ultimately improving building performance and user experience.   #ComputationalFluidDynamics #BIM #Architecture #BuildingPerformance #BDGArchitects
