Every time, we have a different theme to introduce stakeholders about the latest information or solutions in a particular area. In this DWSS webinar series, we are glad to have the participation BEX Solutions Limited to introduce their solution. Outline of the webinar (information provided by vendor): DWSS is a digital platform designed to streamline construction works supervision in Hong Kong. Its key features include digital submission and approval of construction works information, centralised information management, and real-time monitoring. The benefits of DWSS are numerous. Firstly, it eliminates the need for manual paperwork, reducing administrative burden and increasing efficiency. By digitising the works supervision process, it enables streamlined project management, saving time and resources. DWSS promotes transparency and accountability by providing a centralised platform for stakeholders to access and review construction works information. This enhances collaboration and communication between project teams. Real-time monitoring capabilities allow for better tracking of inspection progress, enabling timely intervention and issue resolution. It also helps to ensure compliance with regulations and standards. Implementing DWSS can lead to improved safety on construction sites by facilitating better risk management and providing a platform for reporting and addressing safety concerns. Overall, DWSS offers significant benefits for construction projects, including increased efficiency, enhanced collaboration, improved transparency, better risk management, and improved safety. It is a powerful tool that can revolutionise construction works supervision in Hong Kong and contribute to the success of construction projects.

OpenBIM provides extensive support across different phases of a project's lifecycle, promoting the seamless exchange of information across various applications. It has been applied in advancing offsite construction by optimizing the design and streamlining the prefabrication process. With growing academic and industrial interest in offsite construction, the Hong Kong government has policies to encourage the adoption of offsite prefabrication and the use of prefabricated steel reinforcement components. In this webinar, the speakers will present an openBIM-based approach which integrates clash-free design optimization with automation in prefabrication, using steel reinforcement as an illustrative example. This approach includes an IFC-based integrated workflow that improves interoperability between BIM software, structural analysis programs, and rebar optimization plugins. Provided the workflow, the designed BIM model can be conveniently used in supporting the element connectivity analysis and optimizing the clash-free layout of steel reinforcement. To bridge the gap between rebar design and prefabrication, the proposed openBIM approach further leverages the Information Delivery Manual (IDM) to determine the specific information and data exchange requirements for rebar fabrication. Model View Definition (MVD) and an extended IFC schema, based on IFC4Add2, are proposed to represent the required attributes and entities for rebar fabrication. The extended IFC schema is then mapped with rebar precast data format (BVBS), enabling the generation of machine codes for automated cut and bent rebar production. This openBIM approach aids in seamless data transformation across different platforms, facilitating automation in design optimization and enhancing productivity in prefabrication.
