Hello I am Klaus, are based in Norway and just joined Speckle. I’m an engineer that have been working with wind, solar and recently energy efficiency, all of which requires spatial data, measurements (wind, lidar) and spatial visualisation of results (CFD results, wind and solar maps, thermal comfort of buildings etc).
For my recent work on energy efficiency in buildings , I often encounter other suppliers (HVAC installers, electricians, solar installers) that needs the same data (floor plans, building model) and should also collaborate on joint solutions to obtain the best results.
So just started collaborative work with my small team, and will soon try to invovle other suppliers for our clients, see how it goes.
I guess I’ll leave my two cents here as well even though I’ve been active around here for a couple weeks now.
I’m Henrik, I’m a structural engineer by trade and I’m currently working as the BIM lead at OSA (Ochs Schmidhuber Architekten), located in beautiful Munich’s bustling city center.
When I’m not outside exploring the bavarian lakes and mountains or Munich’s countless cafés, bars and restaurants, I spend my time coding (Swift mostly), taking photos or making music. Other than that, I’m deeply invested in making our office ready for a digital future - developing and deploying strategies, managing software and licenses and acting as a BIM coordinator for many of our projects.
I’m excited to see how we can use Speckle to improve information flow in our office, and I’m always happy to provide feedback and suggest new features
I am Hendrik
Currently in Pretoria, South Africa
A designer by nature
An architect by training
A closet industrial designer by passion
A renderer of 3D things by compulsion
A lover of hand drafting technical drawings (because there are few man-made things as beautiful as hand-made things)
A passionate follower of opening up data systems in the AEC field… by necessity.
I used to love SketchUp, I now love Onshape
I used to love Excel - currently exploring what to love next
I used to love Octane Render, I now Unreal Engine
I desperately want to love Revit… (oh the pain!)
I love my wife and my kids and am only alive today because of a mercy greater than I. A connection no Speckle in the universe could create for us.
If there is such a thing as acute software anti-disconnection alert syndrome (asadas) for software in the AEC industry, I have been suffering from it for many, many years. There is clearly some exciting movement in the AEC space right now. It’s much needed and very exciting!
On this platform I am looking forward to connect with the connectors to see more connections.
