HKUST Comparative Study on Global BIM Standards Report 06/2019 Xiaoyang TANG In the recent decade, the Building Information Model (BIM) is developing at an unbelievable high speed worldwide. Just two years ago, China has published its first BIM standard to unify the BIM project process. In this essay, several China BIM standards including GB/T 51269, GB/T 51212 and GB/T 51301 are compared with other released global BIM standards according to its category. Mainly, there are three types of standards in the world, which are the International Framework for Dictionaries (IFD), Information Delivery Manual (IDM) and Industry Foundation Class (IFC). First, two types of standards are focused, which IFD will compare the GB/T 51269 with OmniClass from America, while IDM will compare the GB/T 51212 and GB/T 51301 with CIC BIM standard from Hong Kong, Singapore BIM Guide Version 2 and PAS 1192.2 from the UK. In order to compare these standards with a logic method, CIC BIM standard’s structure is chosen as the example for IDM while IFC follows GB/T. All the sections mentioned in the standards have been compared to summarize the advantages and disadvantages of China BIM standards.

After compared all the standards, it could conclude that the GB/T standards are general information for most sections, which means it is suitable for most types of BIM projects. However, several sections are missing compared with other global BIM standards. For example, one of the most important BIM section called Individual Discipline Modelling is missing in any GB/T standards. Therefore, there is still room for improvement in the future.

In recent years, prefabricated construction has been increasingly employed in building projects, especially in vertical extension of existing building. However, current lift planning mainly relies on experience and instinct of site manager, leading to potentially poor lifting schedule that may incur extra time and costs on lifting operations. This project presents a BIM-based lift planning framework for prefabricated modules in vertical extension project that aims to optimize the lifting schedule of prefabricated modules and provide visualization for actual lifting path of the modules. The framework considers three main models: (1) information extraction and geometry simplification model to obtain the module information and simplify the shape of modules, (2) analysis model to calculate the actual lifting path distance of each prefabricated module, and (3) optimization model for the selection of ideal lifting schedule using genetic algorithm (GA). An illustrative example is presented to illustrate and evaluate the proposed framework. The results show that the proposed framework can generate the shortest lifting path for each prefabricated module automatically. The lift planning for prefabricated modules in vertical extension project can be significantly improved by the developed framework. N.A.
HKUST Incorporating Project Management Techniques in BIM Projects Report 06/2019 Ziwei YU

In order to manage a project seamlessly, there is a need to establish effective communication between different departments and identify the risks in the project, determine the affected or influencing stakeholders, provide timely resources and logistics, and manage the available resources to make a framework for project implementation. There are several standards and one of the most recognized standards is the Project Management Knowledge Facility (PMBOK). PMBOK is not just a guideline and a methodology for project management, but also can help projects for professional, targeted and comprehensive management. Building Information Modeling (BIM), a project management methodology has been adopted in recent years to design a project integrated as a 3-D information model, which adds all project information in the various phases of the project to a 3-D information model. For a correct BIM implementation in a project, BIM must be integrated into the overall management of the project and must have a BIM Execution Plan (BEP) adapted to the needs of the client and which in turn is integrated into the project management plan. To review BIM/BEP and project management comprehensively, this research consists of three main stages: (1) select of target database examining both academic and applied publications to analyses the situation between BIM/BEP and PMBOK; (2) conducts two surveys about “BIM/BEP with PMBOK” and “BIM project with Risk Management” to have deep understanding of the industry status; (3)select integration, stakeholder and risk management as specific aspects to analyze, and develop a preliminary framework of process guide for BEP.

In Hong Kong’s Smart City Blueprint, promoting ‘Green and Intelligent Buildings, and Energy Efficiency’ is one of the most important initiatives. HKUST, as the leading university in Hong Kong, has been working for years to build a better, smarter and greener campus. Keeping in line with HKUST’s “Sustainable Smart Campus as a Living Lab (SSC)” initiative, this project seeks to enable the Facilities Management Office to make better decisions with respect to balancing the trade-off between human thermal comfort and energy costs. This can be done by optimizing the operational controls of the existing heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems (HVAC) to the occupancy level of the facility. The research was divided into two case studies, one that focuses on occupancy prediction with the use of machine learning and the other seeks to demonstrate how building information modelling (BIM) and Internet of Things (IoT) can be used to visualize the tradeoff between user thermal comfort and energy costs.

This project also discusses a flowchart to integrate the various technologies being suggested. and identifies certain software tools that can be used to assist in the integration process, for instance Autodesk’s Forge. A web-based graphical user interface for an integrated smart facility management system was also constructed in order to provide a direction for future works on this topic.

HKUST Holistic BIM framework for sustainable low carbon design of high-rise buildings Journal 06/2018 Gan, V.J.L., Deng, M., Tse, K.T., Chan, C.M., Lo, I.M.C., and Cheng, J.C.P. In high-density, high-rise cities such as Hong Kong, buildings account for nearly 90% of energy consumption and 61% of the carbon emissions. Therefore, it is important to study the design of buildings, especially high-rise buildings, so as to achieve lower carbon emissions. The carbon emissions of a building consist of embodied carbon from the production of construction materials and operational carbon from energy consumption during daily operation (e.g., air-conditioning and lighting). While most of the previous studies concentrated mainly on either embodied or operational carbon, an integrated analysis of both types of carbon emissions can improve the sustainable design of buildings. Therefore, this paper presents a holistic framework using building information modeling (BIM) technology in order to enhance the sustainable low carbon design of high-rise buildings. BIM provides detailed physical and functional characteristics of buildings that can be integrated with various environmental modeling approaches to achieve a holistic design and assessment of low carbon buildings. In a case study, the proposed framework is examined to evaluate the embodied and operational carbon in a high-rise residential building due to various envelope designs. The results demonstrate how the BIM framework provides a decision support basis for evaluating the key carbon emission sources throughout a building's life cycle and exploring more environmentally sustainable measures to improve the built environment. 連結

In contemporary, the requirements for promoting facility management efficiency is increasing. The traditional facility management may cost too much workforce, too much energy and money. In addition, it cannot meet people’s demand of sustainable development and the requirements of offering a comfortable environment indoors.

With the rapid development of BIM and IoT technology, we would like to make use of those technology to solve this problem. In this project, based on optimizing the facility management of student residual building which located at HKUST, some superficial attempts are made. In the project, the current situation of traditional facility management and the development of BIM and Internet of Things technology are firstly studied. Then, we introduce the application of BIM and IoT technology on facility management, and its benefits as well as weakness. Then we compare some famous and widespread brands products in BMS field. Finally, this project concluded some possible improvement and some future work. Also, we describe the picture of applying this application in realistic which can show the great potential of applying BIM + IoT technology in future facility management.
