In this course, you will understand the practical applications of Building Information Modeling (BIM) with reference to field applications, 4D BIM, and 5D BIM. "Documentation & Common Data Environment (CDE)" covers ISO 19650 standards, including networking (LAN, WAN, cloud computing), CDE concepts, file naming conventions, BIM team roles, and RFI and review processes. "Introduction to 4D BIM/Field BIM" addresses construction scheduling, Gantt charts, and integrates 3D BIM models into 4D modeling with practical demonstrations and workflows for comparing planned versus actual schedules and generating reports. "Application of Field BIM/4D" focuses on collaboration, site utilization planning, 3D control and planning, safety protocols using BIM and CDEs, digital fabrication, scan-to-BIM processes, existing condition modeling, and as-built record models. "Introduction to 5D, AIM" introduces 5D BIM and Asset Information Modeling (AIM), covering quantity takeoff methods, cost breakdowns, COBie, space attributes, and facility management integration for efficient project delivery and asset management. "Beyond BIM - Emerging Trends" explores industrial construction techniques, IoT, Big Data, data analytics, AI, ML applications, and Digital Twin technology, expanding your understanding of cutting-edge BIM applications and trends.
