3. The buildingSMART platform and the IDM framework

4. “Building Smart by being Information Smart” What is it all about... • Understanding • Communicating • Collaborating • Making decisions • CREATING RESULTS

5. .... 6 Herren sa: «Se, de er ett folk, og samme språk har de alle. Dette er det første de tar seg fore. Nå vil ingen ting være umulig for dem, hva de så finner på å gjøre. 7 La oss stige ned og forvirre deres språk, så den ene ikke skjønner hva den andre sier!» 8 Så spredte Herren dem derfra ut over hele jorden, og de holdt opp med å bygge på byen. .... ”Babelsk forvirring” The Tower of Babel, by Pieter Bruegel (c. 1525-69) kilde: www.omniglot.com

7. EFFECT: • ”cheaper and better BUILDINGS and PROJECTS both as constructed, used and maintained” • improved data and information management Why and how to solve the Babylonian confusion in the AEC industry? GOAL: ”reduce uncertainty and improve decission making and communication in the BUILDING LIFE-CYCLE” • ENABLERS: • language • concepts • words • definitions • grammars • enterprise understanding • Enterprise models • enterprise architectures • ICT tools • shared data models • shared interfaces • software

8. What enablers are important in order to improve collaboration and interplay in the construction process from an information handling perspective? • a shared process understanding/model (read IDM/IFV standard) • a shared ”glossary” (read IFC & IFG standards) • a shared ”dictionary” (read BARBi/IFD standard) • a good and shared understanding of the information deliverables in projects (read IDM/IFV standard) • good contractual interfaces • Standard development is done by IAI under the umbrella building Smart and the abbreviations stand for: • IDM – Information Delivery Manual / IFV – International Framework for Views • IFC - Industry Foundation Classes • IFG - International framework for GIS • IFD - International Framework for Dictionaries

9. ”Almost all tasks are performed with the aid of computers today”- the challenge is to connects the islands of information

10. C A D B I M C A D ”Manuals” CAD manual -layout -measurement -line styles -layers BIM manual

11. B I M C A D I D M ”Manuals …” ID manual geometrical information documents & non-geometrical information Task A Task B information

12. Object I • A Parameter • B Parameter • B Parameter • Object II • A Parameter • A Parameter • B Parameter • Object III • BParameter • B Parameter • B Parameter documents Information delivery I D M Task A Task B = information The IDM (Information Delivery Manual) ID manual concept design engineering construction use FM A B

13. File File |Data exchange Exchange Requirement ”dB” Information sets = smaller chuncks IFV - ”International Framework for Views” What is Information Delivery Manual (IDM) framework? Documents = big chuncks ”from big containers of information to smaller chuncks of information” consumer producer

14. Exchange Requirement (ER) example Cost calucation • e.g., pm_cost_modelling • e.g., er_exchange_cost_model[approximate_estimate] • fp_associate_cost • fp_define_quantity • fp_model_cost_item • e.g., er_exchange_cost_model[order_of_magnitude]

15. Functional Part IDM’s Exchange Requirement definition • Easy to understand for different groups • Managers • Project participants • SW developers Exchange Requirement Overview Technical Results Exchange Requirement • Usage: • Interoperability • Software development • Contractual interface • Knowledge management • IFC model extension • Process understanding • Transaction messaging • Model server queries • Data quality assurance • … Functional Part Overview Technical Functional Part Functional Part Results Functional Part Lists Schema Functional Part Functional Part • Recursive, enabling re-use and re-combination at many levels

16. Exchange Requirement Overview Technical Results Exchange Requirement Functional Part Overview Technical Functional Part Functional Part Results Functional Part Lists Schema Functional Part IDM’s Exchange Requirement definition ... Process view • Defines process context • Appendix contains information as how applications must be used by users in order to ensure correct IFC export/import Appendix: application A usage

17. IDM enables defined handshakes in the process Exchange requirement Process E Process A Process C Process B Process F Process D
