This process is recognised as work, time and cost these are the very important elements. n-dimensional (n-D) modelling, where different Building information which comes timely and correctly in “dimensions” of information are integrated into a digital multiple dimensions will facilitate a advanced decision building model. The construction field is constantly shifting building process which can develop these three things. 5D in an effort to recognize the construction process, minimize Building Information Modelling is raising development in the material waste, decrease overall cost, accelerate project construction industry that integrates all the key information achievement, and developed coordination among people from the initial design to the finishing stage. The habitual involved. The performance of Building Information Modeling construction industry's production effectiveness is moderately (BIM) related software, such as Autodesk‟s Revit and low and the waste of resources is serious, which has actually Nemetschek, into construction projects contributes to hindered the construction field green sustainable making this growth in the industry feasible. There many development.

  • The Fondation Louis Vuitton
    THE FONDATION LOUIS VUITTON A new ambition for LVMH's corporate patronage Created by the LVMH group and its Maisons in 2006 on the initiative of Bernard Arnault, the Fondation Louis Vuitton forms part of the art and culture patronage programme developed by the group for over twenty years. It also marks a new step driven by a renewed ambition: – A lasting commitment with the desire to become firmly rooted in a particular place and bring an institution to life over the long term. – A major philanthropic gesture towards the city of Paris with the construction of an exceptional building on municipal state property and the signature of a 55-year occupancy agreement with Paris city council. Driven by a desire to work for the common good, the Fondation Louis Vuitton demonstrates a clear commitment to contemporary art and looks to make it accessible to as many people as possible. To foster the creation of contemporary art on a national and international scale, the Fondation Louis Vuitton calls on a permanent collection, commissions from artists, temporary modern and contemporary art exhibitions and multidisciplinary events. One of its priorities is to fulfil an educational role, especially among the young. A new monument for Paris Frank Gehry has designed a building that, through its strength and singularity, represents the first artistic step on the part of the Fondation Louis Vuitton. This large vessel covered in twelve glass sails, situated in the Bois de Boulogne, on the edge of avenue du Mahatma Gandhi, is attached to the Jardin d'Acclimatation. Set on a water garden created for the occasion, the building blends into the natural environment, amidst the wood and the garden, playing with light and mirror effects.

  • Linking Revit Facility Life-Cycle Data to ARCHIBUS – a Case Study of an Academic Institution
    Available online at 2019.creative-construction-conference.com/proceedings/ CCC 2019 Proceedings of the Creative Construction Conference (2019) 118 Edited by: Miroslaw J. Skibniewski & Miklos Hajdu https://doi.org/10.3311/CCC2019-118 Creative Construction Conference 2019, CCC 2019, 29 June - 2 July 2019, Budapest, Hungary Linking Revit Facility Life-Cycle Data to ARCHIBUS – A Case Study of an Academic Institution Walid Thabeta,*, Dan Millerb aVirginia Tech, Blacksburg, VA 24061, USA bInfrastructure Management Solutions, Vienna, VA 22182, USA Abstract Building owners and facility managers are beginning to leverage spatial information and asset data in BIMs for efficient and sustainable building operations and maintenance. Extracting information from BIMs for import into FM platforms still poses an implementation challenge to many owners. Methods for bi-directional synchronization of data between a BIM and FM software for real-time access to lifecycle model data can be more advantageous over one-way data export approaches so the owner can take advantage of an as-built BIM that can have data updated in real-time with continuous asset data updates. This paper uses a case study of a renovation project on a university campus to illustrate the use of the ARCHIBUS Smart Client for bidirectional real-time data exchange with Revit. The Archibus workflows were compared to other methods for data exchange as to how they support the needs of the owner. Lessons learned and challenges related to this workflow are discussed. © 2019 The Authors. Published by Budapest University of Technology and Economics & Diamond Congress Ltd.

  • Use of Building Information Modeling Technology in the Integration of the Handover Process and Facilities Management
    USE OF BUILDING INFORMATION MODELING TECHNOLOGY IN THE INTEGRATION OF THE HANDOVER PROCESS AND FACILITIES MANAGEMENT by Sergio O. Alvarez-Romero A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Civil Engineering August, 2014 APPROVED: Guillermo Salazar, PhD, Major Advisor Leonard Albano, PhD, Committee Member Alfredo Di Mauro, AIA, Committee Member Laura Handler, LEED AP, Tocci Building Companies, Committee Member Fredrick Hart, PhD, Committee Member William Spratt, MSc FM, Committee Member John Tocci, CEO Tocci Building Companies, Tahar El-Korchi, PhD, Department Head Committee Member Abstract The operation and maintenance of a constructed facility takes place after the construction is finished. It is usually the longest phase in the lifecycle of the facility and the one that substantially contributes to its lifecycle cost. To efficiently manage the operation and maintenance of a facility, the staff in charge needs reliable and timely information to support decision making throughout the facility’s lifecycle. The use of Building Information Modeling (BIM) is gradually but steadily changing the way constructed facilities are designed and built. As a result of its use a significant amount of coordinated information is generated during this process and stored in the digital model. However, once the project is completed the owner does not necessarily receive full benefits from the model for future operation and maintenance of the facility. This research explores the information that in the context of educational facilities has value to the owner/operator and that can be delivered at the end of the construction stage through a BIM-enabled digital handover process.
