Our roles • Adding Flood Mitigation Elements • Adding Structure Elements (beams, columns, …) • Giving New ideas about the whole model in different aspect

Flood prevention concept Small flood
• Water retaining wall makes resident unaffected in building
Without immediate danger
Huge flood The flood is so strong Lost the water retaining wall The first floor is under water.
• Water retaining wall becomes structure protection wall • To be Safe during flood • Resident can evacuate quickly • After the flood, resident can recover to their normal life as soon as possible
Works
Flood prevention concept Rebuild water retaining wall and flood gate
Before the flood :
After the flood :
Furniture elevator
Cleaning hole
During the flood : Evacuate platform
Works
Water retaining wall and flood gate
• Higher wall • Prevent small flood • Prevent floating debris from damaging the building if the flood is strong Patand • More powerful foundation Foundation
Works
Furniture elevator • Before the flood • Simple lifting machine • This equipment help us to move the furniture and some other big properties to the second floor.
Works
Evacuate platform • When the strong flood is slowing • Use balcony on the second floor as evacuate platform • Add ladder to make evacuate more safe
Works
Cleaning hole • After the flood, there must have so much silt and some garbage around the first floor.
• Makes cleaning easier and more quickly

Challenges
Circle
Colloboartion, roles and responsibilities
Challenges
Trouble • Language • Use New tools • Cultural and Time zone difference, different joint time point • Express our concepts ,interaction • Unknown problems’ solutions (technical problems, communication part) • Information collection
Challenges
Trouble Examples
Solutions
Miss the e-mail, Team meeting time
Use right tool: Google group ,‌.
The first frustrated Vlab2 team meeting at sococo
Agenda and Record make meetings efficient and keep the order
Add reinforcement work for the building
Not doing this part for the building
Some of our adjustments weren’t adopted by teams
Discuss the reason and thoughts during meeting and through e-mail
Miss the conversations during the meeting
Ask them at appropriate time or ask them by email
Challenges
Key Learning Points Trust : Need to trust other team and not micromanage
Tech Knowledge : Need to understand BIM tools before figuring out schedule
Flexibility : Linear versus in parallel work. (Solid BIM skills supports both)
Cooperation

What we do
Response
• Contact by Email
• Contact by Email
3/11
• Communication problem • Variation of our quest
• Change the way of communication “use email and type with sococo”
3/18
• Modify model • Provide some suggestion • Change room setting
• Accept “our suggestion” • Reject “change room setting”
• Flood mitigation element • Change room setting
• Accept “Flood mitigation element” • Reject “change room setting” • Hope us “Add Reinforcement”
• Check final model • Tell teammates “We have trouble with adding reinforcement”
• Only share other new idea in slides
• Share slides
• Send 4D models • Send their slides

Conclusion
What we learned ? • Meeting skill • Principles for teamwork • International collaboration experience • Mindset change
Conclusion
Meeting skills Meeting agenda
Meeting record
Preparation before the meeting
Need someone to host the meeting and lead the team
Conclusion
Principles for teamwork Find our own contribution Don’t let what you can do or can’t do limit you
Attitude Trying to show your own idea for your project Don’t afraid to do more work to express what you think
Conclusion
International collaboration exp. Email Long letters
Slower the mind and concept exchange
Time zone Culture differences
Weak connection
Tend to use both Model & Letter To show our ideas
Easier to let others understand what we want
Conclusion
Mindset change • True teamwork → question, share, discuss, record and mix wild idea • It’s more useful to show the what you done than just give suggestion
• Contributions are not just the thoughts others accept , the process of the discussion is also important • Get one first and chase better quality after then
