Module

In this module, you will act as a BIM manager by assuming responsibility for the coordination model and issue management in a CDE (Common Data Environment Furthermore, you structure and check the submitted delivery items using predefined approval processes. Due to the simplification, you do not provide the CDE preconfigured, but use the default settings of the CDE to internalize the functions already included.

Role description

As part of a BIM project, BIM managers play a central role and take on a variety of tasks. They act as a point of contact for questions about BIM-based project execution and control the management processes relating to digital project execution.

‍

Together with the client's project management team, they develop the project-specific AIA and organize and manage the CDE. In doing so, they ensure that the agreed rules, standards and processes are adhered to. Furthermore, they check and document the quality of the digital deliverables to be provided in accordance with the requirements and specifications defined in the AIA. Last but not least, they are also involved in coordinating the BAP and its updates to ensure that the project runs smoothly.

‍

Describe in accordance with VDI No. 2552 Part 7

‍

“Information managers are project members who record the client's information requirements and define BIM objectives and applications as part of the project management process. They are responsible for the organizational tasks of defining, implementing, complying with and documenting the BIM processes over the entire life cycle of a building. At the same time, they are the client's point of contact and are responsible for the CDE (Common Data Environment). In the individual life cycle phases, the information managers come from different backgrounds. When the information manager changes, it is the task of the new information manager to check the data model for quality, up-to-dateness and completeness. The information manager coordinates the tasks and processes with those involved, particularly at operational level with the information coordinator.

‍

instance

At the agreed milestones, the information manager requests the building information model from the information coordinators and checks it for quality, the required level of information and its compliance (e.g. depth of information, level of detail).”

‍

Content of the module

In the “BIM Manager” module, you organize the model-based coordination process between the specialist disciplines of architecture, structural engineering and technical building services as a representative of the client. To do this, you use a common data environment (CDE), which you use to create a coordination model, carry out collision checks and manage tasks in terms of issue management. You will also organize the approval processes and be responsible for the quality of the digital delivery items to be submitted.

‍

Objectives of the module

  • Knowledge of the tasks of a BIM manager
  • Knowledge of the structure and functioning of the CDE of Autodesk BIM360
  • Organization of model-based issue management
  • Carrying out collision checks on the coordination model

02 - Task for the BIM Manager

Task

As the client's representative, organize the model-based coordination process between the specialist disciplines of architecture, structural design and technical building services. To do this, you will use a Common Data Environment to create a coordination model, carry out collision checks and manage tasks in terms of issue management. In addition, you will organize the release processes and be responsible for creating the qualities of thedelivery items to be submitted.

‍

‍

Issue management

Specifically, the task includes the following steps:

  1. Load the IFC files ofthe AA, AS and ON in the folder XXX high, according to AIA.
  2. Go to Coordination-View Model And take a look at what the CDE created there coordination model on.
  3. Run a Collision check By, by setting the tolerances to 10mm adjust.
  4. Insofar no collisions exist, add the IFC fault model and perform a new clash check.
  5. Pick a collision and create a task by creating the value fields in accordance with BCF useful to ask the author to correct it.
  6. Send this Issue as BCF to the responsible author, with a fixed deadline and a corresponding priority.

‍

Approval processes

To submit adelivery item (DI for short) for review, you must use the CDE release processes. This is the only way for all project members to understand what processing status a DI has already reached.

‍

To do this, proceed as follows:

  1. Watch this Chapter 6 of the AIA on. In Chapter 6.1.1 The file name conventions for digital delivery items (digital item, DI for short) and the approval processes that must be followed are described.
  2. To submit a DI for review with the BIM Coordinator, complete the “Check A” approval process. After the approval process has been initiated, the DI receives the additional information”DIVIDED”.
  3. If the DI has been approved by the BIM coordinator, the client must approve the DI through the representative of the BIM manager. To do this, complete the “Check B” approval process. After the approval process has been initiated, the DI receives the additional information”ARCHIVED ”.
  4. Once the BIM manager has approved the DI, the DI is renamed “PUBLISHED” with the additional information and is therefore approved for construction.
  5. Monitor issue management until all DI's with the additional information”ARCHIVED “were uploaded.
