About the session

When planning a new airport, power station or stadium it is essential that security is designed in at concept stage to ensure maximum operational effectiveness. When you add to this the adoption of BIM as a requirement on all UK publicly funded construction projects by 2016, then it is clear that there are challenges ahead for planning consultants, engineers, designers and architects that need to influence and specify security from the outset.

Leading speakers including Professor Jon Coaffee, University of Warwick, Dr William Pilkington, Cabarrus Health Alliance and Hugh Boyes, Institution of Engineering and Technology head up a dynamic programme. Key topics include:

• Cyber securing the built environment - exploring the BIM challenge
• Impact of terrorism on the design of urban areas
• Design and security considerations for intelligent buildings
• Benefits of the new security certification scheme SABRE
• Interactive panel discussion on security vs performance
