Defect management in civil construction work is crucial. This work is aimed at analyzing the conventional method of construction defect management and to bring out a framework for integrating 5D building information modeling with mixed reality. This work is divided into three parts. The first part is the integration of 5D building information modeling with augmented reality that helps to understand the architectural concepts and visualize the workflow onsite. The second part of the work is to develop a user-defined target-based marker-less augmented reality to send screenshots of augmented models and exact progress of work from construction site to engineers working in other locations. The third part of the work is to integrate virtual reality to enable virtual tours of the real site that will be useful for the customers to visualize the building virtually and for the builders to promote sales.

Interactive Map

Modern people can use navigation on the outside to save time and get to the destination well. Likewise, in order to find out more information about a destination building, such a system is increasingly needed both in front of the computer (on-line) of the house and after reaching the destination in the building (off-line). Accordingly, we employ Building Information System (BIS) as a system that provide users with content related to a building like BIO and BIM. The Building Information Online system (BIO) is an interactive map application designed to assist customers in finding parcels and building on a map online. The Building Information Modeling (BIM) allows nD information to be visualized simultaneously by architects, engineers and constructors to gain a synchronized understanding viewing from different perspectives. Inspired by above researches, we implement a service that provides online and offline Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) content for a building. This system can provide users outside the building with information within the building via devices with VR and AR support regardless of space restrictions. The system is designed to operate across scenarios requiring offline, online, offline-online collaboration, etc., and the corresponding experiments are carried out.

PurposeThis research proposes a virtual reality (VR) platform for construction detailing that provides experiential learning in a zero-risk environment. It builds on integrating VR technology as a medium and building information modeling (BIM) as a repository of information and a learning tool.Design/methodology/approachThis work discusses the proposed environment curricular unit prototype design, implementation and validation. The validation of the VR environment was conducted in three phases, namely, piloting, testing (system usability and immersion) and learning gain validation, each of which has its aim and outcomes and has been assessed both qualitatively and quantitatively.FindingsAfter considering the feedback, the VR environment prototype is then validated on the level of learning outcomes, providing the evidence that it would enhance students' engagement, motivation and achievement accordingly. The results indicated 30% learning progress after experiencing the VR environment vs. 13.8% for paper-based studying.Originality/valueIn reference to building construction education, construction site visits provide students with real-life practical experience which are considered an extension for classroom. Nevertheless, it is challenging to integrate construction site visits regularly during the academic semester with respect to the class specific needs. The research at hand adopts integrating VR and BIM in AEC (Architecture, Engineering and Construction) education by proposing a system that can work as a mainstream complementary construction detailing learning method for architecture students. The proposed VR system facilitates a virtual construction site that meets the learning needs where students can explore and build in a real scale environment.

The growing need to recover and digitally represent heritage infrastructure has led to the challenge of choosing different Building Information Modeling (BIM) platforms that will be used to manage the implementation of the semi-automatic design and reconstruction processes of reverse engineering modeling. The approach to the integrated management of information derived through Heritage-BIM (H-BIM) has been applied to Via del Duomo, one of the main roads in the old town of Naples, Italy. During preliminary inspections of the construction site it was possible to acquire geometric features and pavement/subgrade information, as well as to conduct a photographic survey, with 1,618 photographs collected. Subsequently, the acquired data were processed, using different BIM-based tools, to obtain the 3D mesh; objects were then converted from pure graphic solids into parametric entities by proposing a specific algorithm. Then a library, with the inclusion of all the possible stone paving package alternatives, including all the structural and stress-deforming characteristics such as Young Modulus (E), Poisson coefficient (n), and Safety factor (SF), was created. In this way, it is possible to associate to the generic element the optimal pavement package solution, depending on different construction contexts. As preliminary result, a dynamic model that updates its information package and modifies the output of the analysis every time the data worksheet is integrated with new collected results is proposed for further pavement management operations evaluation.

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a technology that focusing on the building element properties to the construction components which cover the interior and exterior building, while Geographic Information System (GIS) describe to the technology that can provide the large-scale information which cover inside and outside buildings (spaces and areas). In construction project application, BIM technology already been used as a worldwide tool while GIS rarely been applied. Each technology contains their own advantages that can be utilized in the construction project application. To bring the best effective approach in construction project, the integration between BIM and GIS technology can be considered. This paper presented an attempt in integrating BIM and GIS by using FME as a data integration platform to solve the limitation of BIM in construction project by using advantages of GIS. Through this research, an investigation of the data exchange during integration process between BIM and GIS will be look up. By using this approach, it is possible to store the BIM and GIS data in one environment. The end results for this paper will cover the method of the data exchange between BIM to GIS and GIS to BIM. Besides that, this paper highlight how GIS can solve the limitation in BIM in construction project.

Abstract. Application of Building Information Modeling (BIM) in construction industry has been applied for many years back. This because BIM can provide a better advantage in construction industry in term of controlling and managing construction project during their life cycle. The advantages that can be provide by BIM is focusing on the indoor planning tasks. But, when the construction project involves, besides indoor planning, outdoor planning also is important part that need to be look up. To cover the outdoor planning in construction project, Geographic Information System (GIS) need to be applied. GIS can overcome this problem because GIS mainly for outdoor planning by using their spatial analysis. GIS can offer a high degree of geospatial information and can provide the detailed geometrical and semantic information of building to assisted across improve automation. Towards produce the improved preparation in construction project, BIM and GIS should be integrated. To integrate both domains, the data interoperability between them need to be investigate because they used different data standard. This study focusses on solving the data interoperability through the data integration between BIM and GIS to solve the problem of data mismatch and data missing during data translation process. Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) was used as a data standard to perform the data integration between BIM and GIS. The outcomes from this study show that when the data interoperability applied between BIM and GIS, the problem above can be solved, and the data dimension and their coordinate system also can be control.
