  • 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.

  • The Building Information Model in Facilities
    THE BUILDING INFORMATION MODEL IN FACILITIES MANAGEMENT by Ronald O. Méndez A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Civil Engineering May 2006 APPROVED: _____________________________________________ Prof. Guillermo Salazar, Thesis Advisor _____________________________________________ Prof. Fabio Carrera, Committee Member _____________________________________________ Mr. John Miller, Committee Member Abstract The construction industry’s traditional resistance to incorporate change has prevented benefits from technological advancements to accrue. One area in which technology shows potential to benefit the industry is in addressing the existing communication gaps between the designer, builder, and owner. This gap is more evident in the operation and maintenance of a building. At project completion, an owner also receives information of the building. This information is comprised of as-built drawings, operation and maintenance manuals, warranties, and other documents. However, there is additional and valuable information for the owner generated throughout the design and construction process that goes unrecorded or is not passed unto the owner at project completion. The Building Information Model (BIM) is a digital collection of well coordinated information about the design and construction of a building in the form of an integrated database, where information is generated as the digital model is produced.

  • An Ontology of the Uses of Building Information Modeling
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School The College of Engineering AN ONTOLOGY OF THE USES OF BUILDING INFORMATION MODELING A Dissertation in Architectural Engineering By Ralph G. Kreider © 2013 Ralph G. Kreider Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2013 The dissertation of Ralph G. Kreider was reviewed and approved* by the following: John I. Messner Professor of Architectural Engineering Dissertation Adviser Co-Chair of Committee Chimay J. Anumba Department Head of Architectural Engineering Professor of Architectural Engineering Co-Chair of Committee Robert M. Leicht Assistant Professor of Architectural Engineering Ute Poerschke Associate Professor of Architecture *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. ii ABSTRACT Building Information Modeling (BIM) does not change the purpose for performing a task related to delivering a facility – only the means by which the purpose is achieved. Currently, no common language exists for the purposes of implementing BIM. This lack of a common language makes it challenging to precisely communicate with others the purposes for implementing BIM. The goal of this research is to create that common language by developing a BIM Use Ontology. A BIM Use (Use) is defined as a method of applying Building Information Modeling during a facility’s life-cycle to achieve one or more specific objectives. The BIM Use Ontology (the Ontology) provides a shared vocabulary that is applied to model (or express) the BIM Uses, including the type of objects (or terms), and concepts, properties, and relationships that exist. The methods performed to develop the BIM Use Ontology included: 1) defining domain and scope, 2) acquiring domain knowledge, 3) documenting domain terms, 4) integrating domain terms, 5) evaluating (refining and validating) the BIM Use Ontology, and 6) documenting the BIM Use Ontology.
