August 24, 2017, Irvine, CA. The U.S. Institute of Building Documentation is pleased to announce the online publication of a new resource: a Referral Listing of individuals who have become certified in the use of USIBDs LOA Specification V.2.0. These individuals have gone through training, and have been tested to become certified in the LOA V.2.0.
Trainings are held online monthly via CD-BIM, and testing is available there as well. The trainings are held on the last Friday of the month. Those who passed the test are certified in the use of the LOA V.2.0, are eligible to be listed on this referral listing.
The Level of Accuracy (LOA) Specification is USIBDs most often downloaded document. It is designed to help service providers and clients define accuracy needs based on the project. The LOA is now being integrated into popular industry software packages, to increase the ability to validate accuracies comply with those specified using the LOA. Version 2, released last October, includes a heritage overlay into the specification.
The LOA V.2.0 is available for download at no charge from USIBDs eStore.
