BIM methodology from the design phase must be coordinated and developed by project engineers to control the construction site milestones. BIM is not only a 3D model. BIM is when the Construction Stage is capable of successfully using and analyzing data from the digital interpretation of the structure.
Management of “BIM” on the construction site can be described as a process that repeats until the highest MMI level of the Model is reached and the installation works are done.
When the contractor receives the Model with MMI300 when the construction site starts, the engineers are working together with the designer to develop as many detailed aspects of the construction as possible to be clear for further execution. This applies to technical issues, schedule, budgeting, procurement, safety, and project management. All internal processes required a specific type of data controlled in the 3D Model to be successfully useful during the execution phase.
The production site has been equipped with tools such as BIM stations and IPads with relevant software for sharing the geometry and metadata. It has also been receiving packages of production workflow which did consist of 2D schemes based on Model with annotations, dimensions, and different cross sections that were prepared in a cloud in one of the BIM software. This allows less work with the Model directly on site and what is more, this way is easier to learn for the workers. This information package is responsible for delivering the understandable “Scope of work”.
The other package which is responsible for controlling the “Quality” might have been the assurance that everyone has access only to the latest 3D Model. Accurate and actual Work Breakdown Structure given together with reporting manpower and the schedule. All the above information can be used to enrich the Model locally and follow the status on a particular basis. The construction site has its own requirements to proceed with in order to finish the project within time and budget with safety first and quality best. In order to make it possible it is a very convenient way to connect the geometry and its object data with construction site information to have a better overview of the planning strategy.
