ARCHITECTURE, ENGINEERING,
CONSTRUCTION & FM SECTOR IN EU
“30% reduction in project costs
and a 40% shortening of
completion times could arise from
technology use.”
European Construction Sector Observatory , report April 2017
“ […] the construction process should be viewed as a
high priority challenge, to be addressed by the TIR
roadmap using BIM tools to expedite high-quality
planning, construction, operation, refurbishment
and disaggregation and reuse.”
Extract from the Third Industrial Revolution report, Rifkin, 2016

TRANSFORMATION OF THE
CONSTRUCTION VALUE CHAIN
• “Citizen-centric Construction 4.0” requires
• Transforming processes in the
construction industry
• Key Enabling Technologies (KETs):
materials, components
• Data management and ICT platforms
• Let’s take the example of BIM in
Luxembourg
• Eco-system of actors pushing forward
(CRTI-B, early adopters), willing to
strengthen collaboration and upskill
• Technologies: collaboration platforms, 3D
printing, laser scanning
• Emergence of new services for projects
stakeholders, facility managers, contractors
etc.
2. Overview of LIST projects
9
• BIMetric
• Benchmark of BIM projects, maturity and return on
investment
• BIM4VET ERASMUS+ 2015>2018
• BIM responsibilities and competencies
• 4DCollab ANR (FR) / FNR (LU) 2017>2020
• Collaborative 4D/BIM for Construction Management
• BIMEET H2020 2017>2020
• BIM skills & training for Energy Efficient Buildings
• PuPAD PhD thesis 2016>2019
• Engagement of users/citizens in design processes
• Underlying technologies
• BIM & Parametric modeling environments
• POESY – Post-Occupancy Evaluation System app.
• Touch-based and Tangible interaction systems
10
RESEARCH & INNOVATION PROJECTS AT LIST
PhD Project
PuPAD
• A web-application for the Post-
Occupancy Evaluation (POE) of
buildings
• Feedback campaigns to get perceived
qualitative evaluation of the spaces
from occupants
• Consolidates human results with
measured data retrieved from sensors
(e.g. temperature, humidity)
• Link with the BIM to get building’s
spaces, their type, as well as eventual
expected occupancy
11
POESY APP
BIM-based Post-Occupancy Evaluation
• A tangible application for the
recommendations of training
• Repository of BIM training modules
• Matrix of competencies: BIM author, BIM
coordinator, BIM manager
• A system for assessing and
recommending training to project teams
12
BIM4VET / BIMEET
3. Going Beyond
13
• Upskilling practitioners, occupants
feedback, sensors data are rich datasets
• Users and objects are more and more
connected, but BIM remains physical and
static
• Need to EXTEND BIM
• Dynamic and evolving management of building-
related data
• Towards semantic integration of external
knowledge (IoT, users…)
• Upscaling BIM to district level
• CUSP – Computational Urban Sustainability
Platform
14
BEYOND BIM
• LIST collaborates with Cardiff
University on CUSP platform
• It links BIMs & city GIS models to IoTs
(like sensors) and open datasets
• And provides simulation capabilities
(e.g. energy simulation)
• Scenarios initially developed in Belval
district and Maison de l’Innovation
• Optimized energy consumption in
building
• Scheduling strategy for thermal, visual
and IAQ comfort
• A prototype already developed for
Luxembourg City
COMPUTATIONAL URBAN
SUSTAINABILITY PLATFORM
15
4. Conclusion
16
• Call for interest: case studies in Luxembourg
• Intelligent, energy-efficient buildings
• Positive Energy Blocks
• Construction BIM and digital twins
• Instruments available: H2020, FNR (Bridges)
• A strong European collaboration established
• Policy makers, academics, research institutes
• In a nutshell
• LIST develops BIM-based technology bricks
• To improve building occupants’ experience, well being
• And citizen engagement
