4. City (energy) pressure & opportunity
A city is smart if it allows for environmental
transition (*)
• affordable for public bodies and citizen
• benefiting from data & ICT innovation
• integrating all the city stakeholders
(*) not the only topic of course…
IoT & Crowd data trends

The challenges ?
The consequences ?
• Low productivity (data re-encoding,
clashes, waste, …)
• Performances not met

7. BIM: A 4.0 collaborative process for builders
Construction 4.0 actors
Needs of Building-centered collaborative
platform, fed with data
Building Information Modeling (BIM)
• Buildings « métier » Mock-ups (design,
fabrication, construction site, operation,
managment)
• Life cycle DB

8. ICT MEETS CITY BUILDERS
A STEP TO GIS/BIM
CONVERGENCE
EXAMPLE: RETROFIT & EXTENSION OF THE MCAN

9. The challenges
• How to better integrate architecture projects in city ?
– Urban pedestrian & thermal comfort
– (Trafic-based) pollutant exposition
– Wind effect on RES, ventilation and mechanical issues on buildings
• SmartSIG3D: a productive & reliable ICT suite based
on interoperablity btw GIS 3D & CFD
– Collect (open?) Data
– Build efficiently 3D semantic Mock-up
– Assess micro-climate (several KPI) by CFD
– DB enrichment (data conservation)

10. GIS based micro-climate simulation: an evolution
Achievements
• Study costs ~ -35%
• Decision cycle time constant ~ -50%
• Accuracy increase
• Results accessibility & citizen communication tool

11. How does it work?
• GIS/CFD convergence OKGIS/CFD convergence OKGIS/CFD convergence OKGIS/CFD convergence OK
• Semantic level coherence
• Hierarchical models (« metier » mock up & KPI)
• Interoperability with OpenStandard (CityGML, IFC)
• 2-way of communication (DB enrichment with relevant KPI)

12. How will it evolve ?
TEKK Tour Nov. 6th, 2017 Copyright Cenaero
• Further increase the productivity
• CFD SaaSification
• Enrich microclimate database & models
• Méso/Micro simulation
• Data-driven simulation
• Impact of buildings & traffic
• Microclimate meets Energy
• New & retrofit buildings performances
• RES integration & Microgrid
• Mandatory GIS/BIM convergence
• Semantic level coherence
• Actors alignment

15. Their « Industry 4.0 » own challenges
• Support to
• Automated and coherent manufacturing tasks (off-site)
• Tailored prescription facilities (mass customisation)
• High product quality in both tolerances and performances (EPB, acoustic,
fire resistance)
• Lifecycle resource management (wood chain) and stakeholder information
sharing (designers, engineers, builders, operators)
• Long-term use-based modularity

17. ICT Solution based on BIM (under development)
• System BIM-configurator from the architect tools (mandatory link with
conventional tools + customisation ability)
• BIM-based HMI linked with automated lines (numerical control)
• BIM-based quantity take-off and stock managment (ERP approach)
• BIM-ready for design and certification tools
