Logan Colbeck…. Honeywell E&ES


• Building Information Modelling (BIM) is an intelligent 3D model-based process that equips

architectural, engineering and construction professionals with the software to create a model of a

building that reacts to change in the way that the real building would. Fundamentally, the pure and

simple form of BIM provides a single source of information for all project members.

BIM

• The acronym “BIM” is unfortunate but is here to stay – think of it as “Better Information

Management”

Introduction – What is BIM?


What BIM delivers


What the UK Government wants from BIM

• In May 2011, the UK Government published the Construction Strategy aimed at

reducing the cost of public sector assets by up to 20% by 2016.

• To achieve this strategy, the government requires construction suppliers tendering for

publically funded projects to be working at BIM Level 2.

• As a minimum, they require fully collaborative 3D BIM (with all project and asset

information, documentation and data being electronic).

• The requirement has been introduced to drive the adoption of BIM processes

throughout the public and private sector to encourage benefits including:

- Reduction in CAPEX, delivery and operational costs

- Reduced risk

- Improved carbon performance

- Predictable planning


BIM Levels 0 - 3

Where does the data come from?


Product Data Templates (PDT) and Product Data Sheets (PDS)

• The information provided in a model does not have to be any different to the

information provided in schedules or specifications. BIM does not change what

information is provided, it is just a different way of presenting that information.

• PDTs allow manufacturers to pass on information about a particular piece of

equipment or material through the design, procurement, installation and maintenance

chains in a simple and consistent manner.

• PDTs ask only the relevant questions of a manufacturer, without being too onerous

and not exposing the intellectual property upon which a manufacturing company

relies.

• The questions may not be obvious to each player in the construction chain

individually, but collectively they form a useful data set.

A PDT becomes a PDS when it is populated with data!

Where the PDT sections come from

• M&E PDTs should now all be based on CIBSE’s PDT structure.

- Previously 5 (including IFC and COBie)

• Bespoke PDTs can take up to 4 months to get signed off

- Created by Trade association members

- Reviewed by Trade association committees

- Reviewed by CIBSE

- Shared for public consultation

- Published on CIBSE and CPA websites

• In the absence of a Bespoke PDT, product BIM data should be based on CIBSE’s

generic PDT

• PDTs should be reviewed every 12 months by CIBSE

• Currently only 18 PDTs published

- Concerns / frustrations raised with the Government


3D = 10% of a BIM Object

• SAT files are used to create geometric modelling data and visual representations of a

product

• Offered by Honeywell as part of our open approach to BIM

• 300 – 500 KB in size

• “as if you are looking at it from 5 metres away”


Revit

• Revit is software from Autodesk specifically created for BIM and includes features for:

- Architectural design

- MEP & structural engineering

- Construction

• Software of choice for all E&ES competitors (with BIM objects to date)

• A Revit file / object amalgamates the data from the PDS and SAT files into a singular

file format. This can then be “dragged and dropped” into a BIM

• Other BIM platforms:

- Bentley

- Nemetschek

- Trimble

- ArchiCAD


Interoperability

• BIM level 2 allows for work to be carried out independently by the various consultants /

contractors i.e. not in a single model

• Interoperability becomes essential as companies will use BIM platforms of their choice (Not

just MEP that use BIM)

• To “ensure” that Platforms are interoperable, a file type called “IFC” has been created

- IFC = Industry foundation class

- “owned” by Building Smart

- Started as a specification about data content and structure but turned into a file format

- Should facilitate the integration of System files between BIM platforms

- Reduces the amount of data transferred to ensure interoperability

- Will be critical for BIM level 3!

• Components Vs Systems (Think “Bag of Salad”)

- Honeywell provide the components (the salad) to Specifiers and Contractors ( sockets, thermostats,

valves, etc. = lettuce, tomato, cucumber, etc.)

- Specifiers then create the system (Dado trunking, Y plan, potable water system, etc. = Bag

• IFC files are good for transferring system data, but less effective for individual component


BIM snap shot - Today

Industry

• BIM is a global design methodology

• UK is seen as the leading country for BIM

deployment – Government driven

• Other European countries driving BIM: - Holland, Germany, France & Norway

• Key influencers in UK BIM development:

- European BIM task group (CEN 442)

- Government steering team e.g. BIM4M2

- CIBSE

- BIM 4 BEAMA

• Single PDT solution

• Collaborative working with customers and peers

to deliver relevant and consistent data templates

Honeywell

• Impacts all of the E&ES businesses

• BIM can’t be done once and left – the data will

always need maintaining

How Wholesalers can benefit from BIM

• One stop shop for Product and BIM data

- Act as a gateway to your supplier’s BIM data

- Increase hit rate on your websites

- Differentiator between competitors

• Object creation service – become fully integrated with your suppliers and their projects

• BIM creation service – Create models for the client or Contractor

- Gear specification to your benefit

• Better product data from suppliers

• Who’s products to stock – indication of manufacturer’s commitment to the future


Summary

• BIM does not radically change the way we design buildings; it is a process that improves

the quality and consistency of information shared amongst project teams, and offers real

opportunities for increased efficiency throughout the industry.
