The 30th General Assembly of the European Council of Engineers Chambers (ECEC), accompanied by a professional conference, took place in Dubrovnik on 6-7 November 2026. The event was hosted by the Croatian Chamber of Civil Engineers and held at Hotel Kompas Dubrovnik.
Our colleague Martina Pavlović Cerinski also participated in the event, delivering a presentation entitled “Guidelines for BIM Approach in the Construction Phase”, in which she introduced the newly developed guidelines. Her presentation formed part of a session dedicated to digitalisation and innovation, which also addressed information systems development, innovation, and the application of artificial intelligence in construction.
The Guidelines for BIM Approach in the Construction Phase provide a professional framework for the practical and systematic application of BIM during the construction phase of projects. Martina Pavlović Cerinski co-authored the Guidelines with Professor Maja-Marija Nahod, PhD, from the Faculty of Civil Engineering at the University of Zagreb, Goran Anić from ATP architects Zagreb, and Boris Živković from Intelika.
Participation in the ECEC conference provided an opportunity to present this work to an international audience and exchange insights into current European trends in digitalisation, BIM, innovation, and the development of the engineering profession.
The programme of this year’s ECEC gathering also covered topics such as public procurement, professional recognition and education, housing, and strengthening the standing of the engineering profession at the European level.
For Elektroprojekt, participation in international professional events of this kind provides an opportunity to contribute actively to knowledge exchange and the development of modern engineering practices, while further strengthening its expertise in BIM and the digitalisation of design processes.
