Background

About Tim Barnes

As a Senior BIM & Visualization Specialist with Architecture49, embedded within the CENTRUS Joint Venture (WSP, A49, HOK) for the Centre Block Rehabilitation Project, I bring over 15 years of expertise bridging cutting-edge technology and real-world construction practices. My core strengths lie in reality capture (laser scanning, photogrammetry), advanced visualization workflows, and the integration of 3D data into practical AEC solutions, cultivating the future of Digital Twins. I have deep experience producing orthophotos, mesh models, and immersive visual assets that enhance design, coordination, and decision-making. Beyond technical skills, I have a strong background in project management, architectural and structural design, and graphic communication — enabling me to deliver both strategic leadership and hands-on execution across project phases. I’m passionate about pushing innovation within the built environment, blending new technologies like drones, AR/VR, and automation to improve project outcomes. I thrive at the intersection of design, technology, and construction — helping teams deliver better, faster, and smarter. Always open to connecting with others who are passionate about shaping the future of AEC.
