For this project, ACAI has adopted overall productivity for Owners and the entire design team. GSA BIM standards and procedures as a best practice Benefits of Virtual Design & Construction and BIM include: during design. With Broward County we are utilizing 4D Building Information Modeling("BIM")technology promotes Phasing to support the understanding of the projects efficiency and schedule compression; Enables integrated phasing. We have also adopted the use of gbxml data planning, design, detailing, cost control; Eliminates schemes for the exploration of sustainable design and inaccurate as-built documentation and inconsistent design energy modeling. During the Schematic Design Phase quality; Ensure better communication, design delivery and we utilize the Conceptual Energy Analysis tool within Revit coordination; Improves cost predictability and clash 2012 to explore design and building performance detections and Post-construction efficiencies optimization. The parameters of the BIM begin at a Level (maintenance). of Detail (LOD) of 100 and migrates to a LOD of 300 through the design process. Beyond construction Also, ACAI has an excellent File Transfer Protocol (FTP) documents we continue with the use of the BIM for system. We have recently upgraded to a 100 mpbs down construction. We understand the importance of open-BIM and 10 mpbs up broadband solution to speed up file - promote interoperability and support IFC, COBie, SPie, transfers. We use Box.net for our file sharing with our and the bsDD (building SMART data dictionary consultants and project members and we have worked development). with a number of different cloud file sharing solutions. We have migrated our FTP users to Box.net for the enhanced Also, ACAI served as the BIM consultant and modeler collaborative environment solution they offer. We have responsible for coordination of all systems for a DEA Lab researched other broadband options that would allow for which is currently under construction in South Florida. The faster upload speeds and we are currently waiting for them ACAI team worked as consultants for a national Electrical to be available in our area. In addition, subconsultants contractor on this project and was responsible for modeled have been working with ACAI currently with large files with the Lighting, Power Fire Alarm, and the low Voltage Box.net and ACAI would be agreeable to make it a project systems based on the engineering drawings. Through a requirement that they procure a broadband solution with series of on-site meeting with all the parties involved and higher upload and download speeds if they don't currently using the latest Autodesk product tailored for such a task, have a minimum of 10 mbps upload and download. ACAI ACAI coordinated the electrical Systems against all the has not had any issues with any current consultants in other trades including Plumbing, HVAC,and fire Sprinklers. working with files that are typically between 250 and 500 The result is a preconstruction fully coordinated 3D BIM MB>. model of what will be installed. Our BIM Experience can be seen firsthand as ACAI served At ACAI, we are constantly examining the structure of the as the BIM Manager for the first BIM Project to be "Information" within the BIM model to ensure its completed for Broward County. As BIM Manager, ACAI organization, usefulness and eventual migration to was responsible for the BIM implementation & execution Facilities Management. The ACAI Team focuses on the plan and kept all team members informed of BIM Standards Life Cycle of the BIM model in order to bring maximum and processes. We worked with Broward County staff, the client value. While the industry continues to appreciate project's General Contractor and Design Team to establish and expand the potential value of BIM in the design and the operating procedures and guidelines for creating BIM construction process, the emergence of this technology coordination files for the Central BIM Model and managed has also accelerated interest in the development of the the model handover and exchanges during the pre- integrated project delivery system which embraces the construction and construction process. We were also Owner, Contractor, Architect and other entities in a very responsible for the final record as-built BIM. highly collaborative project. Together, BIM and integrated project delivery are seen by many as the wave of the Another project where ACAI is currently providing BIM future.
