The document discusses how building information modeling (BIM) can be used to improve project controls strategies in construction projects. It explains that BIM allows for a single coordinated source of structured information to support all parties involved in a project from design through construction and facility operation. This reduces information loss and improves productivity. BIM models can also be used to simulate the entire building lifecycle from construction through operation. When integrated with decision support systems, BIM can help optimize the selection of sustainable building components and measures through multi-criteria decision making.
11. Innovation of Building Processes
in Syria by Using BIM
Intelligent design information in 3D – ‘model-based
process’; building will be built virtually before
physical building is constructed
New technology and new way of working,
beginning to make an impact to construction
industry (has been used for a while in
manufacturing & engineering industries)
At a strategic level, BIM addresses
many of the industries failures:
waste reduction, value creation
while improving productivity.
Provides a common single and coordinated
source of structured information to support all
parties involved in the delivery process -design,
construct, operation – reducing loss of
information
BIM can be used to demonstrate
the entire building lifecycle from
construction through to facility
operation.
Contains representations of the actual parts
and pieces - includes building shape, design
and construction time, costs, physical
performance, logistics and more

“a digital representation of physical and functional characteristics of
a facility. As such it serves as a shared knowledge resource for
information about a facility forming a reliable basis for decisions
during its lifecycle from inception onward.”

16. WHAT IS BIM?
B
The “Building” is unhelpful as people start to think of a
“building”. For people working in infrastructure they may
wonder whether “BIM” is relevant
BIM is as relevant to “Infrastructure” and Oil & Gas” as “ Buildings”.

“Information” is a fundamental to BIM. In fact it is the flow and
sharing of structured information that is the central philosophy
of BIM.

There is even a debate as to whether “M” should be for
“Modeling” or for “Management”
The danger with using “Modeling” is that people start to
think purely in terms of a (CAD) model.

Lego blocks
▶ Lego blocks are [PLACEHOLDERS] for
real-world product data
▶ All Lego blocks must be accounted
for - otherwise model is incomplete
Think of BIM as intelligent Lego

33. ▶ Model is complete (No blocks missing)
All Lego blocks accounted for?

● BIM = Document Management System for Buildings
● BIM elements can be used as Smart Folders for “unlimited” data storage
