Application of Building Information Modelling and Construction Process Simulation Ensuring Virtual Project Development Concept in 5D Environment

In the process of building construction, traditional architectural design and construction methods take a long time. The built buildings perform poorly in terms of energy usage and energy conservation. The study expects to explore the potential safety hazards of prefabricated buildings during the construction process. On this basis, a modelling study of the construction process is carried out. The study uses Digital Twins (DTs) technology and prefabricated Building Information Modelling (BIM) to conduct in-depth modelling research on the building construction process. The prefabricated building construction system oriented to DTs technology can well solve the problems of structural damage and deformation in the production, transportation, and assembly process of building components. Especially in prefabricated buildings, it can monitor and accurately predict the damage of building components that may occur in the entire system due to structural problems and material problems in real time. Regarding the building information model, the study uses third-party software to transfer the assembly information to the network cloud to further realize the display of the BIM. The study shows that the maximum value of the effective risk cases selected is 130, and its effective rate is 100%; after processing the data, it is found that the initial value is always stable, and its value is 1; the extracted value is always changing, the maximum value is 0.86, and the minimum is 0.75. By this result, the conclusion is that DTs technology and BIM can effectively monitor the indicators of risk problems during the construction of prefabricated buildings and can further reduce potential safety hazards. Through building information modelling, the development of intelligent industrialization of building construction design and the in-depth study of construction modelling has practical application value.

Building Information Modelling (BIM) is increasingly being implemented both in the World and in Lithuania. The benefits provided by BIM promise a much more efficient and smoother construction process and suggest that the construction market of the future will continue to develop based on the BIM methodology. However, both the implementation and development of BIM can face some challenges, obstacles and limitations for construction market participants that occur with the use of BIM and that can slow down the smooth implementation of a project. This paper examines the difficulties of BIM in the implementation and use phase. During the research, the literature sources were analysed describing the implementation of BIM in the development of residential and other projects. The advantages and challenges of BIM described by the authors were analysed, and the emerging problems were highlighted. The literature sources analysed and found BIM limitations were grouped according to the most frequently mentioned.Building Information Modelling (BIM) is increasingly being implemented both in the World and in Lithuania.

2D Drawing

Building Information Modelling (BIM) is a major transformation in the building industry. The construction is seen among the best solutions to overcome too many problems faced in conventional industry construction. Conventional construction is associated with two-dimensional (2D) drawing technology while BIM used three-dimensional (3D) model and each component in the construction process contains detail information. Therefore this study is to collect the earlier investigations on the use of BIM in infrastructure in the perspective of the constructor to view and analyze the current status for adopting this technique. The basic development of BIM for infrastructure is emphasized in this observation. Benefits for the constructor for Building Information Modelling for infrastructure will be analysed from past research. Through this observation, we have found many benefits for construction on BIM for infrastructure, especially for the design and construction phase. Selected for phases design and construct is by most collected themes on review of BIM uses throughout an infrastructure lifecycle. However, the listed benefits are the most stated in past research. These benefits show that this technology of BIM is the most effective method that been applied in the infrastructure construction industry, especially for the constructor.

<p>The Trysfjord bridge is a concrete balanced cantilever bridge with a main span of 260m, being built at the present time and will, when finished, be among the largest bridges within its type. The bridge is part of the E39 highway under construction between Kristiansand and Mandal in the southern part of Norway. The concurrent design and construction process are being done with parametric analysis and modelling (PAM) as well as building information modelling in x dimensions (4D, 5D, xD, BIMxD).</p><p>This design and building project utilize the underlying power of computers not directly accessible through commercial software, by programming our own adapters and pre-/postprocessing algorithms in Dynamo, Python, and C#. This is creating new connections between the profession of computer programmers and civil engineers. Different layers in the architecture from calculations to modelling is also coupled.</p>

The Impact

Conventional ways of building construction process lack proper task scheduling and planning of the project work at the site resulting in poor monitoring of the whole process. Building information modelling (BIM) creates a platform where all the information of every single element of the construction process can be virtually integrated. The integration of 3D elements of a building model with its scheduled time and cost parameters results in 5D BIM. This feature enables the visualization, scheduling, planning, and monitoring and clash detection of all pre- construction, construction and post-construction processes of a building. The present study used the information of a live project of a traditionally built residential building which was remodelled using 5D BIM technique. The purpose of this study was to compare and analyse the impact of 5D BIM on time and cost parameters of the live project.

Building Information

Building information modelling (BIM) is one of the new technologies being used in architectural and constructions projects. At present, BIM curricula are being taught in many Malaysian higher learning institutions, including at the certificate level in community colleges. Even though many studies have investigated behavioural intention to adopt BIM in the industrial setting, studies on the intention to use BIM among students during their training or learning have not received the same level of attention. This study, therefore, investigated the extent to which community college students are willing to accept and use BIM. Factors that influenced their behavioural intention to use BIM, as well as the relationship between the factors and intention to use were also examined. The Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) was used as the theoretical framework to guide the research, where students’ behavioural intention to use BIM was explained through their perceptions of its usefulness and ease of use, as well as their attitude towards BIM utilization in the classroom. A total of 144 community college students enrolled in the architecture programmes in Malaysia were selected as the sample using convenience sampling. The findings show that the students’ behavioural intention to adopt BIM is high. They also perceive BIM as useful and easy to use, and their attitude towards BIM usage appears to be positive. The regression model produced an adjusted R-squared value of 0.790 indicating that 79% of the total variance in the students’ intention to use BIM can be explained by the three independent variables, i.e., perceived usefulness, ease of use, and attitude.
