RESUMO: O uso da metodologia BIM (Building Information Modeling) prevê a construção de um banco de dados que agrega as informações geradas nos projetos de concepção, necessárias à execução de uma obra de engenharia. A utilização do mesmo se torna justificável por criar um modelo digital que permite o trabalho simultâneo de equipes multidisciplinares sobre uma mesma referência tridimensional. Esta centralização de dados de projeto permite uma melhor gestão das informações mitigando problemas de compatibilidade, bem como fornece uma visão mais holística do processo. Este trabalho tem como objetivo apresentar uma revisão sistemática de publicações e conteúdos abordados a respeito do BIM, verificando as perspectivas da tecnologia, a utilização no ato de projetar e gerenciamento de projetos. A metodologia foi baseada no desenvolvimento de um Mapping Study, tomando como fontes para a pesquisa as seguintes bases de dados indexadas: Portal de Periódicos da Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES), Scopus, Compendex e Science Direct. Foi realizada ainda uma pesquisa nos periódicos nacionais Ambiente Construído e Gestão de Tecnologia e Projetos e nas bases Scielo e Centro de Referência e Informação em Habitação (Infohab). Os resultados obtidos fornecem um horizonte do progresso da aplicação da tecnologia. Mostra também uma tendência pela busca da desfragmentação das equipes no desenvolvimento dos projetos de engenharia com a utilização do BIM. Assim este trabalho contribui para um melhor entendimento acerca do desenvolvimento de pesquisas relacionadas ao BIM, em suas diversas vertentes, fornecendo referências importantes acerca do tema estudado.

In this study, by applying the developed formwork automation design software to three target structures, we reviewed the applicability of the formwork automation design software for the aluminum formwork. To apply the formwork automation design software, we built an aluminum formwork library based on the conversion of two-dimensional (2D) computer-aided design (CAD) data to three-dimensional building information modeling data for all the components of the aluminum formwork. The results of the automated formwork layout on the target structures using the formwork automation design software confirmed that the wall and deck members were laid out by the set algorithm according to the formwork size and direction. However, because of the limited functionality of the software, the level of completion of the formwork layout was found to be lower than that of the manual formwork layout based on 2D CAD data. The currently developed software is based on a simple algorithm, but has a drawback in that the automated layout is limited to only some of its members. Therefore, additional research should be conducted on the development of advanced software through the diversification of the algorithm, automation of preprocessing of the mesh, and analysis of the relationships of all the members comprising the formwork.

ResumenEl cambio de paradigma que representa BIM -Building Information Modeling- en el proceso edificatorio implica la necesidad de dominar tanto metodología como herramientas propias. La metodología BIM es/ será también una demanda clave a la que se enfrentan/ enfrentarán los profesionales que desempeñan su labor dentro del amplio panorama laboral que proporciona la titulación de Grado en Ingeniero de Edificación y, en consecuencia, un reto que debería trasladarse ineludiblemente a ámbitos docentes. La Escuela Politécnica de Cuenca -EPCu-, como parte de la Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha -UCLM-, ha interpretado esta coyuntura como una oportunidad única para repensar no tanto el qué enseñamos en el Grado en Ingeniería de Edificación -GIE- sino el cómo lo hacemos. En este sentido la potencia de la metodología BIM posibilita que pueda acabar vertebrando el plan de estudios y condicionando las estrategias/ metodologías docentes utilizadas. Dentro del programa de implantación BIM de la EPCu se ha priorizado, como primer paso y durante los dos últimos años, una estrategia formativa del profesorado -abierto también al alumnado- y una reconfiguración de equipos/ aplicaciones informáticas/ flujos de trabajo dando prioridad al software libre o educacional. Paralelamente, a menor escala y hasta que sea posible la interconexión de las distintas asignaturas, se ha propiciado la experimentación docente a nivel de asignaturas sin alteración del actual plan de estudios. Este es el caso de Proyectos Técnicos -PPTT-, asignatura de sexto semestre de GIE con un marcado carácter metodológico, donde se viene ensayando desde los dos últimos cursos con la potencia gráfica de las aplicaciones propias del ecosistema BIM como herramientas analíticas útiles a la determinación técnica de las soluciones constructivas.AbstractIM -Building Information Modeling- as a paradigm change in the building process implies the need to master both methodology and tools. BIM methodology is/ will also be a key demanded in the professional world of a Building Engineering and, consequently, a challenge that should inevitably be transferred to teaching areas. The Escuela Politécnica de Cuenca -EPCu-, a part of Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha -UCLM-, interpreted this situation as a unique opportunity to rethink not so much what we teach in the Degree in Engineering of Building -GIE- but how we do it. In this sense we believe that BIM methodology can configure the main teaching strategies/ methodologies used in GIE. As a first step in EPCu's BIM implementation program during the last two years a training strategy for teachers has been prioritized -also open to students- and a reconfiguration of equipment/ computer applications/ workflows giving priority to free or educational software. At the same time, on a smaller scale and until the interconnection of the different subjects is possible, the teaching experimentation has been promoted at individual subjects without alteration of the current educational plan. Proyectos Técnicos -PPTT- is a subject placed in the sixth semester of GIE, with a clear methodological character and for the last two years we are working with the graphic power of the BIM applications as analytical tools for the technical determination of constructive solutions.

As the industry transitions towards incorporating BIM in construction projects, adequately qualified students and specialists are essential to this transition. It became apparent that construction management programs required integrating Building Information Modeling (BIM) into the curriculum. By bringing Virtual Reality (VR) technology to BIM, VR-BIM would transform the architectural, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry, and three-dimensional (3D) immersive learning can be a valuable platform to enhance students' ability to recognize a variety of building principles. The study carries out a methodology for implementing the VR-BIM in the construction management undergraduate program. Based on the previous literature review, in-depth analysis of the program, and accreditation requirements, VR-BIM will be implemented throughout the curriculum by combining stand-alone class and integration in the existing courses method. The challenges that may face the program planning to implement VR-BIM are discussed, and few solutions are proposed. The lab classroom layout appropriate for the applications is designed to be adjusted for several layouts to accommodate all learning styles and objectives. A comparison between different Head-Mounted Display (HMD) headsets is carried out to choose the appropriate equipment for the lab.

In the past two decades, building information modeling (BIM) has been widely adopted by architectural, engineering, and construction firms. Its technology is based on the integration and coordination of different disciplines and professions. It involves creating three-dimensional models containing data that can be organized and manipulated to serve design, construction, and operational phases. This raises the debate over how the existence of a platform that enables urban planners and decision makers of different disciplines is so crucial. Several research studies have recently been done to integrate BIM with geographic information systems (GIS) for numerous purposes, as illustrated by several case studies. This chapter comparatively analyzes different cases, given general acknowledgment of each. Problems and potentials of the existence of such integration will be defined, in order to estimate the need for such a platform. Finally, a model of integration between different disciplines was illustrated as a motivation for further studies in the future concerning this topic.

The documentation of vanishing architectural heritage includes intensive information and data gathering, filtering, classification and digitization. Enabling such an endeavor necessitates the act of documentation, which requires the cooperation of several professionals from different fields, extensive resources, precise organization, and robust structuring. Therefore, the design and development of an innovative digital platform to facilitate the interaction between users from different specialties is highly desirable to enable dynamic real-time preservation and protection of such invaluable heritage. The aim of this study is to investigate the existing Qatari built heritage, urban conservation methods and the principles of modern digitizing and archiving techniques to create a sustainable and interactive archiving platform—Qatar Historic Buildings Information Modeling (Q-HBIM) platform. This unique digital platform aims to respond to the needs of the society as well as the experts in the fields of urban heritage conservation and buildings restoration. A literature review was conducted on topics relating to Qatar urban heritage and the principles of three-dimensional digitization technology including an exploration of the aspects of sustainable urban preservation. Accordingly, site analysis (physical, photogrammetric and 3D scanning techniques were used), and in-depth interviews were adopted as the main data collection techniques. The findings of this study elucidate the principles of innovative architectural heritage digitization tools involving Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology and processes. It is anticipated that the present work will formulate an advanced and unique interactive archiving tool in the context of Qatar and GCC/MENA regions in the shape of the: Qatar Historic Building Information Modeling (Q-HBIM) platform.
