The following learning unit focuses on the object classification, data structure and model generation in order to create a correct BIM model for facility management systems. This unit will focus on standards like COBie and best practices documents. A facility management software (CMMS) with the support of a BIM model is essential to speed up urgent interventions and to communicate issues to other agents detailing placement and situation in the building.

The Objectives include:

  • Structure model data for a correct facility management implementation with BIM.
  • Classify BIM objects, spaces and other BIM parameters to be compatible with facility management software.
  • Generate a model considering maintenance parameters.
