MSc BIM and Project Collaboration: Retrofit Building Analysis

This project delves into the application of Building Information Modelling (BIM) for retrofit existing buildings, examining the entire process from project execution to the presentation of project materials. The report critically analyzes collaboration relationships and their influences within the project, emphasizing the importance of BIM in facilitating communication and information exchange among stakeholders. It explores the use of BIM for managing the architecture, construction, and engineering aspects of retrofit projects, including the synchronization of new designs with existing documentation. The project outlines appropriate methods, processes, execution plans, and technologies, such as software modeling and geometrical integration, used in the retrofit building process. It discusses the creation of BIM objects, including the use of families and the application of reinforcement details to improve design, cost management, and clash detection. Furthermore, the project highlights the benefits of using artifacts in the building process to create the final structure of the project and to identify the need and requirement of elements. The project stresses the importance of BIM in improving the efficiency of retrofit existing buildings by providing better data sources, preventing time and cost overruns, and enhancing the ability to create and manage objects.

INTRODUCTION
Building information modelling is basically the intelligent 3D model which provides the brief
architecture, construction and engineering the professional insight or tool. This is a process to
plan, construct, design and manage the infrastructure of buildings. This report will discuss
about the project execution of building construction and design in the terms of collaboration
relationship and influences. This report will describe the retrofit building by using BIM
model. This assignment will describe the different methods, process and technologies which
help for managing the entire process in proper manner. Furthermore, it will discuss about the
different materials and artefact that applicable in the building information modelling.

TASKS
Critically analyze and evaluate the project execution in the terms of collaboration
relationship and influences
 BIM is used as the facilitating collaboration between the project stakeholders. In this
way, it will be increased evidence towards the positive influences of building information
modelling project results.
 Sometimes, this building modelling project will help for retrofit building that manage the
entire architecture of building, construction industry and engineering.
 When BIM is used for retrofit building then it establishes a synchronisation between new
design and documentation drafting. It is not possbile without collaboration and influence
of different design attributes and designers.

Cont.
 Building information modelling is impact on the collaboration which help for reshaping
the individual cognitive determinates and also influence the other team members to
complete the task or framing the event pattern for delivering the project.
 The application of BIM to the retrofit existing building face challenges regarding the
information exchange.
 For accurate retrofit BIM is one of the effective method because it allows to analyse the
time dependency of constructuion activities so that safety errors and new design conflicts
can be identified and avoided.

Cont.
 Collaboration relationship and influences are necessary in between the project team between all
the parties. It is needed to the best way to deal with the information and move towards the
documentation of project database system.
 All the details and information can be analysis and directed by using building information
modelling that allow creating an effective integration between the team members and
information's.
 Sometimes, this model is linked with the federated model for removing all the clashes, detection
and managing the facility or marketing of business process.

Explain how can use the BIM for retrofit
building
 Building information modelling is applicable in the process of retrofit building existing
that help for managing the entire structure, ownership and age etc.
 It is considered to be the important for influence towards the framework. The benefits of
BIM application in the retrofit building to confirm the process by involvement of different
parties.

Cont..
 Building information modelling is created a proper life cycle stage and implementation into the
existing development. This life cycle is managed the process for designing the retrofit existing
building.
 This process will provide the proper visualization that assist to the designer where communicate
with residents.
 It also offered the solution in the social life and also achieve the sustainable approach. In this
way, it designer can be measured the accurate quantity of information which beneficial for
retrofit purpose.

Apply the appropriate methods, process and execution plans and
specifications and other technologies in the retrofit building
 Implementation of Building information modelling on the structure project- Retrofit Building is
used the BIM model which is based on the software modelling that integrated with the model of
geometrical on various type of materials. This model is used independent to analyze the entire data
processing in effective manner. Retrofit Building structure can be included the single model structure
to analyze the entire documentation and detailing of facts or figures. This includes different types of
features that allow managing in proper manner such as allocate the documentation construction of
each object, support the various type of data formats, generate the structural details and perform
multiple material modelling. It is important for Retrofit Building to divided into partition name such
as Retrofit Building families and Retrofit Building project.

Cont.
 On the other hand, Retrofit Building structure is creation of new object is possible in the
building information model. It also recognized the element of structure according to the
category of structural design. It is essential for automatically maintain the changes occur
in the development of project.
 The existing models of BIM for retofit buildings aims at reducing environmental
degradaton and to enhance their energy efficiency. It helps to retrofit in a cost effective
approach with better secuirty.

Cont.
 The object creation in building information model that involve the various type of
geometric characteristics. These objects are associated with the structure of information,
material types of existing building.
 It also contains the material list in their database system or customized the new material
in the project development. This design of retrofit building architecture is store the
building model for the future reference because it is more compatible with the different
software.
