Simulation of Component Placement based on bim+ Software Lab Project 2014 – Chair of Computational Modeling and Simulation, Nemetschek AG Students: Athanasios Tegos, Sajad Memari, Sheikh Enamul Hoque Supervisors: Simon Daum, Fabian Ritter Abstract A new plugin has been implemented in bim+ which facilitates the time scheduling of a construction project. The whole construction work can be divided into several construction phases. Each of these phases contains a list of structural components that has to be constructed/placed within a certain time duration. Creation of each phase, its element list and the time duration will be defined by the user. Motivation Better collaboration among the designers, engineers, managers and contractors. An open platform to work on BIM models. Facilitate the time scheduling of whole project by dividing it into small segments. Smooth workflow and better projection of the finishing point. Better cost projection etc. Easy access to the information for user simply by Smartphone References [1] Eastman C., Teicholz P., Sacks R., Liston K.(2008), BIM Handbook [2] Albahari J., Albahari B.(2010), C# 4.0 in a Nutshell, O’Reilly Media [3] Svetlin Nakov & Co.

The interactions between the construction phases are user defined which makes the feature quiet flexible and parallelly efficient.

ConstructionPhase is a class which has a name, begin date, end date etc. as attributes. Another class of type observable collection is CollectionConstructionPhase which has objects of type ConstructionPhase. All the instances of these classes are accessed from DataProvider. DialogConstructionPhase is the associated with the interface where an object of class type ConstructionPhase is created. EditTimeInterval is the interface where an already existing object of class ConstructionPhase is edited.
How it was beforeIn a BIM-based workflow, design and construction information from all project participants is stored in a single database. It helps eliminate inconsistencies by providing all project team members with the most current information about elements in the design. Having access to the information stored in a building model has also created new workflows that are fundamentally changing the way projects are designed, constructed, planned, and analyzed.

This facilitates a better collaboration among the people involved in a construction project working from different locations. However, a feature was still needed for creating the time schedule of the whole work process and to visualize it.
What was achieved A completely new feature in bim+ for time scheduling of a
construction project. Flexibility to define the interactions between each
construction phase. Possibility to make the whole time schedule by filling
information from different location by different person at different times.
Visualization of the whole workflow in a Gantt chart. Possibility to have 3D model beside the additional dimension
which is time.
