Prepare to connect and plug yourselves in as we chat to Chris Steer, the Capability Development Lead for WSP in Australia, direct from the WSP office here in the sunny Gold Coast! As a leading expert in the trending field of digital engineering, Chris is a professional when it comes to all things  Building Information Modelling (BIM) and digital twinning. Two revolutionary topics taking the civil engineering design sector by storm, or should we say by software. Chris also shares his extensive knowledge and experience in the use of digital tools and languages, such as Autodesk-Revit, 12D, Dynamo, Bentley and even video-game engines such as Blender to visually program and model huge civil engineering projects in real time. Some of which can be utilized to drive sustainability practices, through exploring carbon capture techniques and processes. This couldn’t go without mentioning the importance of skill-set recognition and work-life balance when chasing a career throughout the engineering industry. Chris is a big supporter of ensuring his team is motivated to stay at the forefront of innovation, and exploring ways as to which we can engage the next generation of engineers coming through. This is an episode not to be missed for anyone interested in the future of digital design in the built environment. Join us as we explore the exciting world of digital engineering with Chris Steer, a true pioneer in his field.
