Building Project

It is an open fact that building information modelling (BIM) have been and is still expanding its usefulness across professional specialization in the building industry. Building Information Modelling (BIM) as a new way of doing things in the building industry and it is a system that is rapidly revolutionizing entire process therein. It is also apparent that most professionals in the building industry are aware and willing to embed the BIM culture but with absolute little to no knowledge about it workability. This is the major challenges, which is as a result of lack of BIM integration to education. This paper therefore seeks prominent works of researchers in BIM and the apparent benefits so far gained and still to be gained with BIM integration to higher education in Malaysia. Thus attempting to proffer an integration strategic that will facilitate an adequate smooth BIM adoption in the building industry, this will boost building project delivery and mitigate against shortcomings of the traditional delivery processes.

This paper presents a comprehensive methodology for evaluating and improving the anti-Coronavirus (COVID-19) measures in higher education establishments. The methodology combines the use of: (1) Building Information Modeling (BIM) for the integration and control in a 3D graphic environment the anti-COVID-19 safety measures; (2) a questionnaire to collect the students’ commitment to safety measures and their suggestions to improve these measures; (3) data analysis to explore the impact of the students’ profiles on their commitment to safety measures. The proposed methodology is applied at the engineering school Polytech’Lille in the North of France. Results show that the BIM model provides valuable services to the administration by integrating the safety measures in a 3D environment and checking the compatibility of these measures and their improvement. The use of the questionnaire allows the administration to collect students’ feedback about their commitment to safety measures and their suggestions to improve these measures.

The University

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is one of the most significant developments in architecture and civil engineering in recent years, therefore it becomes increasingly important to promote its integration into university education. Currently, several universities worldwide offer BIM courses in architecture and civil engineering programs, while many others are under the process of integrating BIM into their curricula. The goal of this research is the implementation of BIM into higher education (Széchenyi István University, Hungary) by integrating the architectural, structural, and mechanical engineering disciplines. An important advantage of the university is that the architecture and civil engineering programs belong to the same faculty, which allows students to work together on common projects. A new course was performed in the previous semester, in which the students are designing contemporary buildings as case studies.  In this paper, the results of the integration process are presented and evaluated based on the trainers’ and students’ experiences.

This paper examines the use of digital learning tools in a technological higher education institution in Slovakia in the context of Industry 4.0 development. Based on a literature review and empirical findings from interviews with education professionals at higher education institutions, this article discusses the critical issues and challenges in the application of some of the Education 4.0 digital learning tools, namely Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology, augmented reality and digital game environment. In this paper, the use of digital learning tools and the collaboration of teachers and researchers are presented as a promising practice of the Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava. This higher education institution reflects current innovative trends in the Education 4.0 concept, e.g. Building Information Modeling technology and augmented reality methods are used as part of a modular learning system, using sensors in manufacturing, preventive maintenance, simulation, design, and 3D printing. Data collection was realized by web pages analysis including webpages of the faculties and by interviews in a sample of educational professionals. The key challenge for the Slovak education system is the improvement of the interconnection between the education system and the industry.The current effort of the scientists and teachers is to identify future trends, techniques, experiences, and skills needed to succeed in the education associated with the requirements of the Industry 4.0 environment. The paper discusses augmented reality with its benefits in time efficiency, ergonomics, and ecological issues. Specific challenges in Education 4.0 learning tools are analysed considering students’ age, attitude towards digital technologies, previous experiences, and situation awareness. The paper stresses the importance of strategical support of Education 4.0 digital learning tools application in the educational process in Slovakia.

Building Safety

Today’s buildings are getting larger and more complex. As a result, the traditional method of manually checking the design of a building is no longer efficient since such a process is time-consuming and laborious. It is becoming increasingly important to establish and automate processes for checking the quality of buildings. By automatically checking whether buildings satisfy requirements, Building Information Modeling (BIM) allows for rapid decision-making and evaluation. In this context, the work presented here focuses on resolving building safety issues via a proposed BIM-based quality checking process. Through the use case studies, the efficiency and usability of the devised strategy is evaluated. This research can be beneficial in promoting the efficient use of BIM-based communication and collaboration among the project party concerned for improving safety management. In addition, the work presented here has the potential to expand research efforts in BIM-based quality checking processes.
