Check building models for clashes and rules
Planners automatically check building models for clashes and stored checking rules
Fits: Research & development
Clashes between structure, services and architecture, and breaches of your modelling rules, show up in the model, not only on site. AI helps turn requirements into checkable rules and sort long clash lists into groups.
Is this for you?
- You plan with building models (BIM) and several discipline models, such as architecture, structure and building services.
- There are employer’s information requirements, a BIM execution plan or your own modelling guidelines.
- Your clash reports are so long that the important conflicts get lost in coordination.
Take an extract from your modelling guidelines or the BIM execution plan, without project names and client, and use the template below to turn it into checkable rules with tolerances. Compare the list with the rule set you use in model checking today.
How to go about it
- Derive checking rules from the requirements
- Combine the discipline models for checking
- Set up model checking with rule sets
- Resolve unclear clashes in coordination
- Assign conflicts and record the solution
- Refine the rule set and tolerances
