Unternehmen des produzierenden Gewerbes sind mit einem zunehmend dynamischen Marktumfeld konfrontiert, weshalb fabrikplanerische Anpassungen immer schneller erfolgen müssen. Der größte Zeitanteil in Fabrikplanungsprojekten wird jedoch für die Datensuche, -aufbereitung und den anschließenden Informationsaustausch zwischen den unterschiedlichen Beteiligten aufgewendet. Um diesen Aufwand zu reduzieren, wird ein Konzept zur kollaborativen Fabrikplanung mit Building Information Modeling vorgestellt.   The production industry is facing increasingly dynamic market conditions. Therefore, the adaption of production systems must happen ever more quickly. However, data acquisition, processing and the subsequent exchange of information takes up a lot of time in factory planning projects. To reduce this effort, the paper introduces a method for collaborative factory planning based on building information modelling.

Building information modeling (BIM) is an innovative approach that is widely used to overcome various challenges in the construction industry. Current BIM implementation mainly focuses on information management, but puts very limited effort on knowledge. That is, the current BIM practice is information-centered, but it is not mature enough to generate and capture experiential knowledge. In addition, knowledge management (KM) is limitedly adopted for BIM implementation. Based on this paper's rigorous literature review as well as a survey questionnaire, nine knowledge enablers and 52 knowledge enabler factors for BIM implementation (KEFBIs) are identified. In this paper, we deploy ISM fuzzy MICMAC to identify and classify the key KEFBIs that influence BIM implementation by contractors. The results can guide contractors to avoid difficulties while adopting BIM so that they can plan and allocate their resources optimally.

With the development of project management theory and information technology, construction project management begins to information and integrated in China. This paper discusses the application of the shared model in construction stage by applying the concept of Building Information Modeling. The method of construction whose object is to accomplish construction information management in the real sense is presented in the platform of BIM technology.

The process of designing and building curvilinear architectures is still challenging. The use of multiple applications with distinctive design paradigms are unlikely to disappear. The interoperability used here was not only the conventional one. It was also ‘live’, in ‘real time’, with two of the applications involved opened and running simultaneously. A design workflow based on the use of form-forming applications connected via parametric programming to building information modeling, BIM, was proposed. The main objective was to facilitate designing and building curvilinear architectures and their supporting structures using simultaneously two different design paradigms. The tools needed in our research can be summarized as follows: NURBS Lofting for surface creation, contouring for modular slicing and structural axis grid definition, sweeping along axes for surface creation of the curved beams of I profile and paneling for the subdivision of curved surfaces into planar fractions. Parametric programming was used to automate sweeping along axes to generating curved I-beams and paneling to subdivide the NURBS surfaces into planar fractions. To the best of our knowledge, our major contribution resides in defining a workflow and developing new algorithms for facilitating designing NURBS surfaces and corresponding supporting structures through ‘live’ interoperability among different applications.

Though Building Information Modeling (BIM) has been proposed as a lean solution for the construction industry, its implementation would itself benefit from a proactive lean approach. This paper aims to study the implementation of BIM in Facilities Management (FM), and explores the synergistic potential of a lean approach. This was carried out through an integrative review of existing literature. BIM-FM implementation was categorized into three phases, which were analyzed to uncover the challenges and barriers faced in each; and explore the potential of a proactive lean approach to counter them. A number of key findings emerged. The existence of inefficiencies and variability in information management leading to an increase in labor hours was identified as a persistent problem in BIM-FM implementation. This had been derived by systematically mapping the challenges to their resultant effects on business processes based on the seven identified wastes in business. The paper provides both academics and practitioners with a collated list of issues based on a new way of examining BIM in FM implementation. It discusses the need for and synergistic potential of lean concepts to reduce information and time waste.

The problems faced by subway stations in the construction process are more complex than those by overground buildings. Therefore, the construction risk for such structures is highly unpredictable and the risk management is difficult. Building information modeling (BIM) technology has strong visualization, simulation, and integration characteristics that make it conducive to the development of a risk early warning system for underground engineering. According to the functional requirements of risk early warning for subway stations, a risk early warning system based on a BIM real-time construction model is designed in this study for a subway station construction. The operation process of the risk early warning system is established through the grey prediction method to propose the operation method of the early warning system. The early warning system is applied to the Xiangjiang New Town Station of Changsha Metro Line 4 in China to verify its feasibility.
