Construction project life-cycle management should be based on the visualization of a virtual building, through the establishment of a Building Information Model in the phase of architectural design as a life-cycle information carrier to realize complete information integration. This enables all phases and territories of the whole building life-cycle to achieve in-time information-sharing so as to overcome traditional territory management pattern. This also improves the running mode and information management during the phases of design, costing, construction and operation.

Building Life Cycle

The construction industry, as a traditional Chinese industry, its information construction level is obviously lower than other industries. In order to enhance construction productivity and reduce resource consumption, construction industry must be done for informational reform. The Building Life-cycle Management (BLM) and the Building Information Model (BIM) contain the abroad forerunners technique of establishing and managing construction information, which realize the whole process management of the construction item and whole life span of the information. This paper introduces the basic circumstance of BIM and BLM technology, analyzes the technique of BIM and BLM in the opportunity of the Chinese applied expansion, and puts forward the problem being faced and the motive to be pull.

Whole Life Cycle

The article deals with the data structure for the purpose of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of buildings using the Building Information Model (BIM). LCA is a method that can be used to demonstrate the suitability of proposed materials, structures, or buildings in terms of their whole life cycle and its environmental impact. For the LCA evaluation it is crucial to obtain life cycle inventory (LCI) input data. The aim of the article is to define a BIM data structure for LCI purposes. The new methodology is based on standardization of non-graphic information model data structure called SNIM. Advantages of the proposed methodology have been demonstrated on the case study. These results are useful for expanding the BIM model with new data necessary for further LCA calculations.

In order to solve the problems existing in the traditional architectural design process, so as to realize the green building model of task coordination, this article through the analysis of the architectural design work in the process of information flow characteristics, based on green building information model of collaborative design decision-making system, to supervise and control the information flow process. IDEF0s method is applied to traffic simulation model was set up at the same time, in order to realize the green building effective connection each process, various professional and task coordination, maximize the efficiency of the total project life cycle, the purpose of improving the efficiency of resource utilization.

End Use

In 2011, Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) embarked on a comprehensive rehabilitation of the historically significant West Block of Canada’s Parliament Hill. With over 17 thousand square meters of floor space, the West Block is one of the largest projects of its kind in the world. As part of the rehabilitation, PWGSC is working with the Carleton Immersive Media Studio (CIMS) to develop a building information model (BIM) that can serve as maintenance and life-cycle management tool once construction is completed. The scale and complexity of the model have presented many challenges. One of these challenges is determining appropriate levels of detail (LoD). While still a matter of debate in the development of international BIM standards, LoD is further complicated in the context of heritage buildings because we must reconcile the LoD of the BIM with that used in the documentation process (terrestrial laser scan and photogrammetric survey data). In this paper, we will discuss our work to date on establishing appropriate LoD within the West Block BIM that will best serve the end use. To facilitate this, we have developed a single parametric model for gothic pointed arches that can be used for over seventy-five unique window types present in the West Block. Using the AEC (CAN) BIM as a reference, we have developed a workflow to test each of these window types at three distinct levels of detail. We have found that the parametric Gothic arch significantly reduces the amount of time necessary to develop scenarios to test appropriate LoD.
