BIM Definition

• "a digital representation of physical and functional characteristics of a facility" and

• "a shared knowledge resource for information about a facility forming a reliable basis for decisions during its life cycle."

• "A basic premise of BIM is collaboration by different stakeholders at different phases of the life cycle of a facility to insert, extract, update or modify information in the BIM to support and reflect the roles of that stakeholder."

Advantages of Collaborative BIM

• Design teams can identify and solve complex issues, and

• share information quickly and effectively, and

• offer a robust BIM deliverable where continuity of information with BIM is critical to the translation of relevant building data downstream.

• This continuity, or the interoperability of information from one project stakeholder to the next, is an important component to the increased adoption of BIM, and one that is even more significant for facilities managers who are looking to use the information-rich models being developed through the design and construction process.

Asset Owner aspirations for BIM

Single Point of Truth

• Asset Management

• Asset Repair

• Preventative Maintenance

• Maintenance Work Orders

• Consultants understanding of Asset Management

• Consultants understanding of BIM deliverables for AM/FM

Types of BIM to AM

• A federated building information model of the “as-built” condition in navisworks format

• Individual architectural, structural and trade services discipline models in “as-built” condition in both native and ifc file formats.

• Data rich models ready for linking directly to a client cmms software system.

• A database of O+M manuals and other equipment and installation data integrated with the models and ready for linking to a client asset management software system.

• All models and manuals integrated with the clients cmms, cafm and bms systems through an FDIT (facility data integration tool)

Lessons learnt

BIM technology has no inherent value:

• Having BIM technology in place will not confer any benefit or create value for an asset owner.

• The adoption of such technology is a cost, not only to an asset owner but also the project team, and benefits only arise from its effective use.

Asset Owners need access to accessible and reliable data

• Consultants need to model effectively for model progression

• Teams need to learn how to collaborate effectively

• Stakeholders need to commit to the BIM process and change their attitude

• Deliverables need to be validated

Model information required

• Building location

• Building name

• Building levels

• Room names

• Rooms

• Spaces

• Systems

• Objects

• GUID (Globally unique identifier)

• DATA

FM requirements of a space

• Architectural Rooms

• MEP Spaces

• MEP Zones

• FM Space

• Classification system that’s consistent

Uniformat

UniFormat is a method of arranging construction information into a standard order or sequence on the basis of building elements or parts of a facility characterised by the function, without regard to the materials and methods used for the construction. These elements are often referred to as systems or assemblies and form the basis of Table 21 of the Omniclass system, the summary level codes include:

• A - Substructure

• B - Shell

• C - Interiors

• D - Services

• E - Equipment & Furnishings

• F - Special Construction & Demolition

• G - Building Sitework

Omniclass

The OmniClass Construction Classification System is designed to assist in the organisation, sorting and retrieval of product information and is useful for many applications, from organising library materials, product literature, and project information, to providing a classification structure for electronic databases.

OmniClass Table 23 Products are used to digitally code and classify Equipment Families

• for example, 23‐27 21 11 is the digital code for equipment Axial Flow Compressors

OmniClass Table 21 Elements are used to digitally code and classify Equipment Systems and Zones

• for example, 21‐51 31 11 17 is the digital code for equipment system named Domestic Water Distribution

Data exchange format

What is COBie? • Construction Operations Building Information Exchange

• Internationally recognized data exchange standard • Exchange building systems information between design & construction

with building owners • Format for delivering construction handover data

• Attributes Increase as model progresses • COBie is primarily textual information • Organized data in electronic form

COBie Structure

• Standard categories with ability to add your own

• Contact (all fields) • Facility (all fields) • Floor (all fields) • Space (all fields) • Zone (all fields) • Type (all fields) • Component (all fields) • System (all fields) • Spare (all fields) • Resource (all fields) • Job (all fields) • Document – for those documents that are assignable to an associated BIM

element or system (all fields, installed equipment documentation, Approval By=“Contractor Certified”, Stage=“As‐Built”)

• Attribute (all fields, manufacturer‐provided attributes, Category=”As‐Built”)

COBie Standard Worksheets

Design Models

• Contact

• Facility

• Floor

Design Models

• Space should be classified using OmniClass and Net Area is provided (Gross Area is generated by Revit).

• Zones should have categories assigned.

Design Models

• Types should have Name, Category (OmniClass), Description,

Asset Type.

• Components should have Name, Description, Type and Space.

• Systems should have Name, Category (OmniClass), Components.

• Document

• Attribute (see Tier#1 for minimum requirements)

Construction & Commissioning Models

Construction

• Type information updated by providing manufacturer, model number, warranty information (parts and labor and duration), replacement cost.

• Component information updated by providing serial number, installation date, warranty start date, tag number and/or barcode. Installation date for major equipment will be the finish date of the scheduled activity.

• Spare parts provided for types.

• Attributes provided for types and components.

Commissioning

• Attributes corrected based on real measurements.

• Documents linked to COBie worksheet.

• Can add a client specific asset number/code

• The level of effort in the development of an FM system can be significantly affected by the cleanliness, accuracy and completeness of the data with the BIM environment.

• All Models submitted to HI are to be “clean” with all extraneous 2D references and 3D elements stripped from the models.

• Models issued as a deliverable contain no undefined, incorrectly defined or duplicated elements;

• No objects/elements/families should be stripped and all drawings and schedules should remain and linked to the models.

• All “error reports” from the authoring software are resolved.

• Models and model content need to be validated and trustworthy

Audit, edit, clean & validate

Software versions & upgrades

• Incompatibility

• Not upgraded

• Not accessing improved technology

• Error Reports

Types of BIM to AM

• A federated building information model of the “as-built” condition in navisworks format

• Individual architectural, structural and trade services discipline models in “as-built” condition in both native and ifc file formats.

• Data rich models ready for linking directly to a client cmms software system.

• A database of O+M manuals and other equipment and installation data integrated with the models and ready for linking to a client asset management software system.

• All models and manuals integrated with the clients cmms, cafm and bms systems through an FDIT (facility data integration tool)

BIM to AM reality

• BIM projects are being delivered through to asset management on a regular basis

• Most examples are where the client has specified the BIM scope, process and deliverables

• USC is a good example

• Clients need the determination and commitment to a change process for a benefit

• They don’t need to know the full technical means to accomplish that initially

BIM requires process change

BIM Benefits arise when it enables people and organizations to do things differently:

• Benefits associated with BIM emerge only when individuals, project team members and the asset owner perform their roles in more efficient and effective ways.

• Fundamentally, those involved with using the building information model to conduct daily business activities must take responsibility for ensuring benefits materialise.
