Опубликована: Ноя. 8, 2022

3D city models are omnipresent in urban management and simulations. However, instruments for their evaluation have been limited. Furthermore, current instances scattered worldwide developed independently, hampering comparison understanding practices. While there assessment frameworks open data, such efforts generic not applied to geospatial data. We establish a holistic comprehensive four-category framework '3D City Index', encompassing 47 criteria identify key properties of models, enabling benchmarking, suggesting usability. evaluate 40 authoritative derive quantitative qualitative insights. The implementation enables structured the landscape semantic as well doubles an evaluated collection models. For example, datasets differ substantially characteristics, having heterogeneous influenced by different purposes. There further applications this first endeavour standardise characterisation data: monitoring developments trends modelling, researchers practitioners find most appropriate needs. work is designed measure continuously can also be other spatial data infrastructures.

Automated compliance checking for BIM models based on Chinese-NLP and knowledge graph: an integrative conceptual framework

Engineering Construction & Architectural Management, Год журнала: 2024, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Март 28, 2024

Purpose The compliance checking of Building Information Modeling (BIM) models is crucial throughout the lifecycle construction. increasing amount and complexity information carried by BIM have made more challenging, manual methods are prone to errors. Therefore, this study aims propose an integrative conceptual framework for automated models, allowing identification errors within models. Design/methodology/approach This first analyzed typical building standards in field architecture fire protection, then ontology these elements developed. Based on this, a standard corpus built, deep learning trained automatically label texts. Neo4j utilized knowledge graph construction storage, data extraction method based Dynamo designed obtain files. After that, matching algorithm devised express logical rules triples, resulting Findings Case validation results showed that theoretical can achieve automatic domain graphs model compliance. Compared with traditional methods, has higher degree automation portability. Originality/value introduces natural language processing technology into completes process constructing data. its functionality usability through two case studies self-developed platform.

Automation of Construction Progress Monitoring by Integrating 3D Point Cloud Data with an IFC-Based BIM Model

Buildings, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 12(10), С. 1754 - 1754

Опубликована: Окт. 20, 2022

Automated construction progress monitoring using as-planned building information modeling (BIM) and as-built point cloud data integration has substantial potential could lead to the fast-tracking of work identifying discrepancies. Laser scanning is becoming mainstream for conducting surveys due accuracy obtained speed process; however, techniques are still limited because complexity methods, incompleteness scanned areas, or obstructions by temporary objects in sites. The novel method proposed within this study enables extracting BIM data, calculating plane equation faces, performing a point-to-plane distance estimation, which successfully overcomes some limitations reported previous studies, including automated object detection an occluded environment. Six datasets consisting clouds collected static mobile laser corresponding models were analyzed. In all analyzed cases, automatically detected whether was completed not compared provided model.

Adapting to an OpenBIM Building Permit Process: A Case Study Using the Example of the City of Vienna

Buildings, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 14(4), С. 1135 - 1135

Опубликована: Апрель 17, 2024

The adoption of building information modelling (BIM) enables data-driven decision-making for many participants in the construction process. Building authorities are stakeholders that have not yet benefited from data integration using BIM. In cases, parts their processes already improved through digitisation initiatives. Now they on threshold a major digital transformation enabled by BIM into processes. This study examines permit process based entirely BIM, developed at Vienna Authority Austria. series workshops with all important stakeholders, current was captured detail and transferred to data-driven, BIM-based shows complete capture approval only automation traditional such as code compliance checks neighbourhood hearings but also supports introduction innovative sub-processes pre-check models augmented reality-based neighbours (in pilot phase). results suggest significantly increases efficiency transparency procedures, represents decisive step towards integrating authority building.

Without a building permit, construction project cannot be legally implemented. For this, the must undergo review process by competent authority. As number of projects to inspected increases, authorities are faced with ever greater challenges, due lack adequate personnel manage inefficient, labor extensive, and lengthy permit process. In-depth scientific studies existing processes missing so far. This paper introduces proposed framework that aims investigate compare in Germany United States America (USA). Among other things, studied for both by-right non-by-right cases. In doing so, data based on collected empirical study form qualitative expert interviews. The findings comparison provide detailed description illustration current processes, as well lessons learned from countries.

The building permitting process is characterized by enormous complexity and multidisciplinarity. It consists of multiple steps, many involved stakeholders with various responsibilities personal goals. This, together the fact that in common practice issuance a permit mostly manual, makes long, inefficient subjective. Digitalization has been subject interest for researchers. In this work, implementing systematic literature review, we map existing knowledge gaps domain hinder further development facilitation technological solutions within process. This work demonstrates lack fundamental research detailed investigation each individual sub-process entire process, digital or automated permitting. Furthermore, provide mapping sub-processes comprises of, as identified research. As much efforts are focused on digitalization automation aspects, also clear definition different levels

Building permitting plays a significant role in life cycles of buildings because without building permit legal construction fails. However, digitalization permit, authorities is rare global context and issuing primarily manual time-consuming process. In current research approaches on digital permits, the focus lays building-related regulation checks. Even if cover an important step process, other steps such as administrative processes are neglected. preliminary research, process model for structuring action-oriented elements was developed transferred applied to Information Modelling (BIM)-oriented process-based web application prototype, which serves basis. An empirical study – using qualitative expert interviews authority South Tyrol (Italy) conducted simulate BIM-oriented review well investigate thoroughly. The results show classification information needed tools supporting case authority, used. discussion, knowledge gained from comparison between presented alongside considerations follow-up research.

Automatic Compliance Checking (ACC) is a promising response to the challenges involved in meeting building and planning regulations, increasingly utilised by researchers context of Building Information Modelling (BIM) Industry Foundation Classes (IFC). However, engineers often use computational methods, such as Finite Element Analysis (FEA), solve challenging engineering problems. Such methods have received little attention ACC BIM. The work presented here proposes holistic approach, integrating FEA IFC schema, utilising Semantic Web-based system for ACC. A top-level ontology, Ontology (BCO) proposed, with aim covering all aspects compliance Built Environment. One novelty BCO that it revolves around modelling statements opposed more common approach components. In order evaluate effectiveness applicability this process, real-world problem used: structural design codes members modular steel structure. An open-source solver FEA, model enriched its results, using an middleware Input/Output. extended field engineering, appropriate classes SHACL checks are implemented. checked automatically running scripts Web environment.
