The design and documentation of large infrastructures have to respond, in an integrated way, to an increasing number of constraints and inter-connected variables. The complexity of those projects prevents them from being approached in a linear or hierarchical fashion, as every parameter has to be balanced in order to reach an optimum result.
This paper summarizes our approach to the management of four complexities in three different projects through the use of constraints and specific processes built around the development of customized design tools. These tools focus in the interoperability and compatibility of information

The document describes a group project assignment to compare BIM QS software and their functions and limitations. It analyzes 5 BIM QS software options - Nomitech (CostOS), Exactal (CostX), Vico Software (Takeoff Manager), Glodon Software (TAS), and Buildsoft (Cubit). For each software, it discusses their key functions such as generating quantities from 3D models, cost estimating capabilities, integration with other software, and benefits like increased accuracy and reduced errors. The document finds that CostOS and CostX provide comprehensive cost estimating solutions while Takeoff Manager, TAS and Cubit focus more on quantity takeoff from BIM models.
Communication & Coordination on a Construction Project Through Building I...muhammad87
This document summarizes research on how building information modeling (BIM) can enhance construction communication, coordination, and clash detection through tools like Autodesk's Navisworks and web-based project management systems. It discusses how BIM improves on traditional paper-based coordination, explores functions of Navisworks for clash detection and integrating models, and interviews industry professionals about benefits of and areas for improving BIM integration.
The document provides an overview of 5 BIM software programs used for quantity surveying: Nomitech CostOS, Exactal Cost X, Vico Takeoff Manager, Glodon TAS, and Buildsoft Cubit. It describes the key functions and limitations of each software. CostOS, Cost X, and TAS allow generating quantities and cost estimates directly from 3D models. They provide accurate measurement and integrated cost databases. However, some like Cost X require users to self-prepare bills of quantities. Overall, the software programs aim to improve efficiency, accuracy, and collaboration for quantity surveying tasks through model-based measurement and reporting.
Revit Architecture is building information modeling (BIM) software that allows architects and designers to freely design and efficiently deliver projects. It uses a parametric modeling approach where any change is reflected throughout the entire model due to bidirectional associativity. Parametric components called families form the basis for all building elements and offer flexibility through varying levels of detail without programming. The software also features detailing tools, schedules, material takeoffs, design options, and visualization capabilities to help inform decision making.
Coordinated design involves bringing together project information from different teams into a single cloud-based solution for improved decision making. Key benefits include live reporting, reduced costs and time savings, full asset registration, and managing work crews and asset analysis over the long term. Coordinated design options for IKEA to consider are a manual process run in-house or using a common data environment with a web interface to manage the design process and clash detection.
The document discusses various stages of a construction project according to the RIBA Plan of Work. In round 1, early stage work like feasibility studies and budget estimation is discussed. Round 2 covers design development using BIM software. Manual measurement and its pros and cons are covered in round 3. Rounds 4 and 5 discuss the construction and close out stages involving tasks like contract management and final accounting. Efficient data management and easier operation and maintenance are benefits mentioned for the close out stage.

AECOsim Building Designer
Unrivaled Information Modeling Software for Multi-discipline Building Teams
AECOsim Building Designer provides information-rich models for the design,
simulation, analysis, and documentation of buildings. This single application includes
capabilities for architectural, structural, mechanical and electrical systems design,
and for construction documentation. Its innovative capabilities help users lower
project costs, save time, reduce project risk, and enhance overall project
quality – while providing building owners with higher returns on their investments.
Multi-discipline Information Modeling Application
Advanced tools, a shared library of building components, and inherently
interoperable workflows are delivered into one single, unified design environment
for multiple building disciplines. AECOsim Building Designer uniquely provides
a comprehensive set of capabilities to effectively design, construct, document,
analyze, and visualize buildings of any size and complexity. With Bentley’s
federated approach, distributed teams of any size can work on models
simultaneously, regardless of geographic location, to enable integrated project
delivery. Information modeling tools are specifically suited to empower
multi-discipline building teams to make informed design decisions and to
effectively communicate design intent from the design phase through construction.
True Interoperability
Information can be reused by incorporating existing data from an extensive range
of AECO and geospatial formats. Users can view and share live design information
across multiple formats in real time with project participants, regardless of
location, facilitated by flexible file referencing. Using Bentley’s i-models,
containers for the open exchange of infrastructure information, project team
members are able to share and interact with complex project data and information
regardless of authoring application. Users can also employ point clouds of virtually
any scale natively within the modeling environment as context for designs.
Immersive Interaction
AECOsim Building Designer enables building teams to understand and interact
naturally with designs. Through hypermodeling, all manner of interrelated design
information for interaction is presented directly within the spatial context of the
3D model, including: solids, surfaces, meshes, drawings, specifications, images,
videos, documents, business data, reports, web content, and more. Hypermodeling
minimizes errors and miscommunication by creating a complete representation of
the virtual asset and resolving the potential ambiguity of 2D drawings alone, and the
inherent incompleteness of 3D models. Users can utilize discipline-specific
information and associative parametric modeling tools like Bentley’s
GenerativeCompnents. With GenerativeComponents, users can quickly explore a
broad range of “what-if” scenarios and model with total freedom, regardless of
geometry or project scale, to create virtually any form, size, and complexity.
Building Performance
AECOsim Building Designer allows users to quickly discover the best design
choices with the ability to predict real-world performance and produce lifelike
visualizations of models. Users can explore and make informed design decisions
by modeling, simulating, and exploring a broad range of “what if” scenarios and
performing height, slope, and solar exposure and shading analysis, as well as
resolve clashes with built-in clash detection.
Trusted Deliverables
AECOsim Building Designer produces the highest quality of deliverables with preci-
sion 2D and 3D plotting, as well as delivers reliable documentation in less time due
to robust design and production standards management. Users can consistently
communicate design intent with the ability to create 2D documentation dynamically
directly from, and embedded within, the 3D model. Reviewing and sharing markups
of models and documentation is made easy and possible by a unifying production
environment that reflects the same up-to-date design.
Hypermodeling presents design information within the spatial context of the
3D model.
Explore more possibilities in less time, create better designs, and efficiently
create and manage complex geometric relationships.
