BCA strongly promotes the adoption of Building Information Modelling (BIM), which allows professionals to work on a building project digitally before it is built. BCA targets to get 80 per cent of the industry to use BIM widely by 2015, and is working with the public sector to take the lead in driving greater BIM adoption. [27]
It is an object-based data schema with a data model developed by buildingSMART (formerly the International Alliance for Interoperability, IAI) to facilitate interoperability in the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry, and is a commonly used collaboration format in Building information modeling (BIM) based projects.
COBie was developed by Bill East, of the US Army Corps of Engineers, while at the Construction Engineering Research Laboratory in 2007. [3] The project was funded with an initial grant from the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration and the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (through National Institute of Standards and Technology).
The UK Government BIM Task Group led the government's BIM programme and requirements, [100] including a free-to-use set of UK standards and tools that defined 'level 2 BIM'. [101] In April 2016, the UK Government published a new central web portal as a point of reference for the industry for 'level 2 BIM'. [ 102 ]
A statement of work (SOW) is a document routinely employed in the field of project management. It is the narrative description of a project's work requirement. [1]: 426 It defines project-specific activities, deliverables and timelines for a vendor providing services to the client. The SOW typically also includes detailed requirements and ...
The use of the BCF to coordinate changes to a BIM is an important aspect of OpenBIM. The format was developed by Tekla and Solibri and later adopted as a standard by buildingSMART. [2] Most major BIM modelling software platforms support some integration with BCF, typically through plug-ins provided by the BCF server vendor.
These types of documents define how a specific document should be written, which may include, but is not limited to, the systems of a document naming, version, layout, referencing, structuring, appearance, language, copyright, hierarchy or format, etc. [34] [35] Very often, this kind of specifications is complemented by a designated template.
Efficiency: Typically led by contractors, 'design–build' has evolved as an efficient way to deliver projects primarily where the building project goals are straightforward, either constrained by budget, or the outcome is prescribed by functional requirements (for example, a highway, sports facility, or brewery).
