BIM-Building Information Modeling

Basic knowledge of technical drawing.

Essentially lecture-based method in theoretical classes.

Essentially active and collaborative method in practical classes. In these classes, students are invited to carry out the proposed exercises, and independently complete individual work, based on the principle of self-learning, under the coordination and guidance of the teacher.

Acquire skills to generate BIM models in the areas of Architecture, Structures, and Installations, and to assist in the execution and management of BIM processes at different stages of the building lifecycle. Master the creation of project documents and the parametric management of BIM models in an integrated manner. Understand and master the IFC format and data interoperability standards in BIM environments.

BIM (BUILDING INFORMATION MODELLING) – GENERAL CONCEPTS OF THE PROCESS AND TECHNOLOGY

1. – Concept and definition of the BIM methodology;

2. – Recognition and usefulness of using BIM;

3. – Presentation of the main software platforms used for parametric modeling and information management;

4. – Analysis of international standards that define the use of the BIM methodology;

5. – Implementation of the BIM process: strategy; planning and contracting; 6. – BIM in the AECO industry.

BIM – PARAMETRIC MODELING TOOL

1. – General notion of 3D modeling logic: project intent, geometric parameterization, editing and transformation;

2. – Initial project setup, interface, templates, family creation, TAG annotation, materials and textures, worksets, project visualization methods, editing tools, and mass and terrain creation;

3. – Virtual communication: characterization of digital models, extraction of images from renders;

4. – 3D digital modeling – execution of a digitally fabricated model that establishes the interpretation of the formally executed proposal in analog mode;

5. – Graphic presentation of the model.

The student can choose between continuous assessment or exam-based assessment.

To be eligible for continuous assessment, the student must have at least 75% attendance in all classes, that is, he must attend at least 42 hours out of the 56 contact hours scheduled.
To be eligible for exam-based assessment, the student must have at least 50% attendance in all classes, that is, he must attend at least 28 hours out of the 56 contact hours scheduled.

Continuous assessment:

• Final test - 25%
• Individual practical work done in class - 50%
• Attendance and participation in class - 25%

Exam-based assessment:

• Final exam - 25%
• Practical-laboratory assessment - 75%

Fraud

The current IPC and ISEC regulations will apply to all attempted or committed cases of academic fraud.

Whenever there are doubts about the occurrence of academic fraud, the teacher reserves the right to invite the student to provide clarification in the form of an oral examination.
