Building Information Modelling (BIM)
Building Information Modelling (BIM) is a critical process and has become a requirement for many new projects. It involves the collaborative management of information through a comprehensive approach to design and construction, helping to reduce costly rework throughout the project lifecycle.
Broad Building Services can guide your business through the BIM process,
ensuring successful, compliant project delivery on time. We offer a full BIM
coordination and project management service in accordance with
BS1192 and ISO 19650 standards.
Our company works in line with your BIM Execution Plan, ensuring all processes
and standards are met. We develop models to LOD 400, using our own in-house
blocks and families, structured data drops, and model setups, all aligned
with ISO 19650 requirements.
We
integrate BIM through a range of software and add-ons, including Revit, Autodesk Construction Cloud, RF Tools, Dynamo, Autodesk BIM Interoperability Tools, and more.
COBie
COBie (Construction Operations Building Information Exchange) is the default information data schema for BIM under ISO 19650. COBie is a non-proprietary data format used for the exchange of a subset of building information models (BIM),
focusing on delivering asset data rather than geometric information.
A key aspect of BIM under ISO 19650 is the data within the model and how that data
is shared with stakeholders. We transfer non-graphical data using COBie, an international standard that consolidates key information into a single format to be shared at defined stages of a project.
By doing this, we help capture and record important project data at the point of origin, including equipment lists, product data sheets, warranties, spare parts lists, and preventive maintenance schedules, among other information.
