Building Information Modeling (BIM) for existing buildings — Literature review and future needs

The gap between predicted and measured energy performance of buildings: A framework for investigation

Facilities management (FM) encompasses and requires multidisciplinary activities, and thus has extensive information requirements. While some of these needs are addressed by several existing FM information systems, building information modeling (BIM), which is becoming widely adopted by the construction industry, holds undeveloped possibilities for providing and supporting FM practices with its functionalities of visualization, analysis, control, and so on. This paper explores how BIM can be a beneficial platform for supplementing FM practices. An online survey and face-to-face interviews were conducted to assess the current status of BIM implementations in FM, potential applications, and the level of interest in the utilization of BIM. Interactions between BIM and FM are defined by illustrating application areas and data requirements for BIM-enabled FM practices. Highlighting the synergy between the two, this paper can help professionals recognize potential areas in which BIM can be useful in FM practices.

Systems integration and collaboration in architecture, engineering, construction, and facilities management: A review

Rapid advancement of information and communication technologies has brought both challenges and opportunities to the construction industry. There have been significant research and development efforts on the application of systems integration and collaboration technologies in construction. This paper presents a research literature review on systems integration and collaboration in architecture, engineering, construction, and facility management (AEC/FM), and discusses challenging research issues and future research opportunities.

Systems integration and collaboration in construction: A review

A fundamental issue in concurrent engineering is sharing data among a vanety of commercially available computer-aided de sign, analysis, and manufacturing software tools. Geometry flaws often occur in the exchange of design data between dissimilar CAD systems and have multiplied with the ever-increasing complexity of product geometry. in recent years the international standard ISO 10303, STEP (Standard for the Exchange of Product model data), has achieved a success rate of 95-98% in the exchange of design data. This paper demonstrates that a significant portion of these errors are the result of the different degrees of precision used by com mercial CAD systems and are often apparent as minute gaps ranging from 0.00001-0.1 mm. The consequences are micro geometry gaps that are not visible to the designer but influence the creation of the final geometry at the receiver's end. Research has found that these gaps can be directly linked to the incompatibility in the degrees of precision used by individual CAD systems to associate vertices and curves with related faces.
