Standard of bim and cad

1. BIMarabia – Omar Selim
: Standard of BIM and CAD
CAD / BIM management requires a variety of management skills, dealing with senior
management and your colleagues, staff recruitment, budget and training.

You may not need to perform all of the following tasks, but you will probably need to perform
most of them at the same time. Things you might need are:
 Updating and maintaining hardware in collaboration with the company's official
 Setting standards for the company (there are international standards and additional
standards for the company)
 Providing a budget for the company required to work with BIM technology in the best
way and explaining the profit that the company will make (Employees look for what
finishes the job faster and the management looks for saving money _you should focus
on these two points_).
 Recording all problems and suggested solutions for each one and getting priorities
right
 The management does not know what you know and think it is easy so they throw
additional work on you. You should explain to the management that the matter
requires an effort to support all employees.

2. BIMarabia – Omar Selim
 The management thinks that BIM is just a program so you should explain that BIM is
philosophy and thought
 You should report periodically to the management to inform them what happens.
‫لماذا‬CAD Standards‫و‬BIMSTANDARDS‫؟؟‬
If you work alone on the project without anyone else working with you and nobody else will
complete it, it might be possible to dispense with CAD Standards (this situation will only happen
if you design a small room on the roof). When we all work on the same project, we will need a
common language that we all understand and here the role of CAD standards comes , because
it helps us in understanding what the drawing is before we open it. For example, if the name of
the file starts with A, it is an architect; E is electricity ... and so on.
The speed factor will be evident in performance because you will not have to ask what this is?!!
Everything is clear and organized. There is a code that organizes the files, their names, classes
and everything. You will notice an improvement in the efficiency of the production process,
Speed in production of drawings, increase in the production volume and decrease of training
and investment requirements QA / QC, in addition to accuracy and quality.

It is better to have two types of documents:
 Type I : PROTOCOL which is general and common for all
companies to coordinate file sharing
 Type II :STANDARD which is specific to the company which use it

An overview of the most important British codes:
What is the difference between a program user such as Revit or Archicad and a BIM specialist?
What makes BIM fails in some companies?? The answer to the two questions is the code. The
BIM Specialist must be aware of the concept of BIM and familiar with it, not just a user of one of
its programs. One of the reasons for failure of companies is the lack of an obvious road, which
is provided by the code.

6. BIMarabia – Omar Selim
What are the benefits of codes orstandards?
Unification and organization of work because if everyone has his own way of naming files, other
will make an effort to know the content of the file and be forced to open the file to know its
content wasting a time that is estimated to be five project time with high probability of repeating
files or having non- important files.
In August 2004, the American National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) published
a report indicating that nearly 15$ billion is lost annually in the American construction industry
because of lack of obvious criteria.
The code organizes the work, who starts, who completes and how we exchange the information
and who has the right to open the file and modify it, so we have to realize the codes, translate
them and find a special code for the Arab region.
We have to differentiate between the Standard which contains the principles agreed upon in a
particular field without entering into details of implementation, and Protocol which is a specific
type of standards or more verbose in terms of step-by-step detailed explanation of the
implementation of a work and it may be related to applications or programs. The Framework has
a different purpose and it is a structural frame of a methods group or ways that are interrelated
in a way to solve a whole problem or an issue and not just an action only.

7. BIMarabia – Omar Selim
Are there many BIM codes?
Yes, almost 70 codes, including Norwegian, British, American and the Indians. So far there is no
Arabic code (even the UAE, which is a pioneer in its implementation in Dubai does not have a
code),working on an Arabic code for building information modeling is what we seek to achieve
by the initiative taken by BIMarabia magazine in the sixth edition and many responded to it.
Now let's review the most important British codes:

This is not PAS but British standards COBie.
This British Standard specifies a methodology
for transferring of organized information
between parties relating to facilities, including
buildings and infrastructure. It determines
expectations for design and construction in
project phases before project delivery and
subsequent phase in use.
Non- obligatory but indicative, the mandatory

10. BIMarabia – Omar Selim
BIP 2207
This book is a guide to BS 1192:2007 for
cooperation between the designer and the
implementer, the British standard is a reference
to practice which provides a better way to
practice development, organization and
management of production information for the
construction industry. It explains in detail the
processes and procedures needed to improve
the quality of production information. It will help
designers in preparing the information before
passing it to the construction team to enable the
construction of the project.
CIC BIM
Protocol
The BIM protocol is a supplementary legal
agreement that is integrated into professional
service and construction contracts by simple
modification. The Protocol specifies additional
obligations for the employer and the contracting
party. This protocol is based on a direct
contractual relationship between the employer
and the supplier. It does not create additional
rights or obligations between different suppliers.
It is recommended in contracts.
CIC Best
Practice
Griffiths & Armor wrote the best handbook in the
name of CIC for supporting BIM Task Group.
The guide is directly geared to the needs of
cautious parties - especially consultants in the
production of information definition using
building information models. The aim of this
guide is providing best practices for supporting
the construction industry to take it to Level 2 of
Building Information Modeling, by summarizing
the main fields of risks which have the
occupational symbol (PI), insurance companies
associated with BIM Level 2 and what you can
do wisely about those risks.

Contents and
Guidance
This document is designed as a sample on the
Employer's Information Requirements (EIR) to
be included in the tender documents.
Levels of BIM Application:
Almost all previous codes benefit the second phase of BIM
There are three levels of BIM application:
 BIM Level 0, which is the level of CAD and the level of non-cooperation, only drawing
lines and brackets either on the sheet or on the computer. In fact most of the companies
are at this level.
 BIM level 1 focuses on a 3D model, error reduction and continuous communication. It
assumes that if you work with British code, you will use BS 1192: 2007.

12. BIMarabia – Omar Selim
 BIM level 2, which embodies the capabilities of the information model, simulation,
facilitating transfer and exchange of information and does not necessarily work on one
model, which most countries aspire to. It depends on files of ifc, COBieConstruction
Operations Building Information Exchange.
 BIM level 3, Open BIM, is the integration so that the work is on one platform and
enables real time handling. Everyone is working on the same file so you do not have to
import and export but to work on the same file in all things such as model work, time
dimension, cost dimension and other dimensions.
So far the third level depends on the Extension of Industry Foundation Class (IFC) and it
is an open-source version that does not belong to a particular company and it is used for
exchange between programs.

A sample of meeting results of a group of specialists in BIM:
The monthly meeting of BIM user group-Dubai, which includes experts and volunteers in
advanced research in the BIM field, was held. Paul Oakly from the British Research
Establishment,BRE, Which does advanced research in the British Standards of BIM, gave
a lecture about the following points:

 Full coverage of research in the UK and different regions of the world, its findings, goals
and achievements.
 The British system, the fields of various BIM standards and how we can reach to ISO.
 BIM support and consultation for projects from the point of view British system.
 Reducing design risks and knowing how to provide and manage information from point
of BIM's view as an information vision, not just to create the model as most people think.

 How to change the world view from BIM Level 1 to BIM Level 2 which will be applied in
government projects in the UK and many parts of the world in the middle of 2016.
 The information level -not the mass level only- is within the model and the majority of
BIM associates see it through a model and not an information model.
 Linking building components to users through intelligent design and non-clashing open
information.

 The different BIM levels from 0 to 1 and 2 and British standards that include model,
building management and information exchange were defined.
 Reviewing the CDE and how to manage information securely in the model.
 The requirements of the client and the firm, the building management and how to make
the required papers of design contract for the project.


16. BIMarabia – Omar Selim
 The seven design phases up to already existing building and its management through
data types - loaded and non-loaded with three-dimensional elements were reviewed
 Reviewing the relationship between Cobie & IFC and their developments through
different versions.
 The difference between American and British definitions in the field.
