Description
Bll2009 aims to set several world first's, including fastest, largest and most engineering applications deployed on a single project.
This years Build LONDON Live is set on a hypothetical man-made island in the Thames Estuary just off Southend. The Bll team have created a master plan designed to augment other proposals in the Thames Gateway including the Thames Estuary Airport Island. Each team will be allocated a site and be provided with a 3D context model in the form of a BIM. Massing is entirely up to the teams, provided that the required spaces are delivered. Some teams may decide to create several buildings; others like the Bll2008 Gravicon team may opt to build all the requirements into a single building.

Jury
Bill East (the Research Civil Engineer at the U.S. Army Corp. of Engineers’ Research and Development Center)
