Overview
1.  Building Information Modelling
2.  BIM strategy and implementation
3.  Conclusion
Tudor’s team and partnership
Construction Program@CRP Henri Tudor: our
competencies
•  Business “experts” (Architects, Civil Engineer / Dr.,
PhD students)
•  IT scientists
•  Appropriation, networking, IPR
Our team is historically involved in CRTI-B
innovation projects
•  Standardization of electronic collaboration
Today Tudor is co-animator of the NeoBuild
innovation pole
•  Series of BIM workshops

Building Information Modelling
… Not a technology or software system
… Not a single-discipline model
BIM is reliable data about a facility

Building Information
Modelling
Industry-driven research challenge
•  Huge cost of lack of interoperability between
software systems in design/construction
•  Cost of uninformed decision making in Facility
Management
•  “Facility-related Data” as an economical and
innovation driver
BIM & BIM
•  Building Information Model
•  Knowing its building & assets to optimize property
management (asbestos cement areas, lift maintenance,
security, taxes,
•  R&D challenge of describing building-related concepts
•  Building Information Modeling
•  A collaborative design/construction/use process
BIM is a reality in several regions
•  USA, Finland, UK, Singapore, Canada…
•  January 2014: EC decision to recommend BIM for
public construction procurement across Europe

BIM Maturity
Maturity of organizations regarding BIM
•  Company level: object-based modeling
•  Project level: information exchange
processes based on models
•  Sectorial level: a global view, linked to
public (procurement) policies
BIM Task Group, UK, 2014
Succar, 2009
BIM implementation
Identify BIM goals and uses
According to an organization’s own goals
•  With level of importance
Within a list of BIM uses
•  Identified through case studies
•  Approved by practitioners
Design BIM project execution process
Reference process(es) for BIM execution planning
•  Activities perfomed
•  Information exchanged
Template from BIM Project Execution Planning Guide Version 2.1
Pennstate University - CIC
Developing information exchanges (IE)
It requires to identify:
•  The model receiver: project team members that will receive the IE
•  The model file type: define the software used to manipule the IE
•  The level of detail (LoD) of the IE
•  The responsible actor authoring the information
Then it is necessary to verify the matching between authored
information and requested information

Technological implementation
Exchange formats to be
used
•  Test of exchanges between
software systems
•  Customization of export/
import
Technological
infrastructure needs
•  In terms of software and
hardware
•  Authoring/review/
collaboration
Quality Controls
•  Checking methods
Model checking / Solibri
Conclusion
Some remarks
BIM strategy
•  Owner requirements
•  Required data for asset management
•  Requirement regarding project management
and decision-making through BIM
•  BIM project organization
BIM Implementation
•  Design/construction/consultancy teams
should be deeply involved
•  Taking into account the maturity of
organizations involved
•  Structured, time-consuming process
Contractual issues
•  Legal value of BIM data vs. usual
documentation
•  Liability for BIM data
