Page 1APPENDIX 3 – BIM SUBMITTAL REQUIREMENTSFOR DESIGN-BUILD1.1 GENERALChapter 1.0 ALL DISCIPLINESApplicability: BIM may be a contract requirement, or may be at designer's option. Refer to theproject's contract documents. For example Section 01 03 00.00 48 DESIGN SUBMISSIONREQUIREMENTS AFTER AWARD has alternate text such as below governing whether BIM is apart of the work:"[Prepare documents using Building Information Management (BIM) technology as describedin the Appendices of the "Reserve Design Process and Submittal Requirements Manual.]"[Preparation of the documents using Building Information Management (BIM) technologyas described in the Appendices of the "Reserve Design Process and Submittal RequirementsManual is at the Designer's option, and is not a Contract requirement.]"This chapter states the minimum Building Information Model (BIM) requirements for each submittalphase. All submitted BIM models, extraction files, extraction definitions, sheet files, renderings,Navigator files, and output files shall be created using Bentley Systems Inc, BuildingSuite of tools and in the version of those tools in which the Army Reserve Dataset CD was provided.This dataset is dependent on the specific versions of the Bentley suite of building tools.Only the versions of software that are listed in the BIM dataset read me file, included on eachUSARC Default dataset CD, are permitted to be used. See USARC BIM dataset read me file forspecific instructions for deployment of dataset.Since the concept of the AR BIM is to digitally build the structure, it is inherent that all designwork be preformed from the perspective that all elements and relationships between them aremodeled, as they would be built. The designer shall use sound engineering, architectural, andconstruction judgment when placing elements on specific parts within families within BIM. Thefamily and part configuration provided within this dataset does not intend to account for all typesof construction elements; rather the intent is to establish a solid starting base to be built upon. Thedesigner of record must understand the use of parts within the BIM in order for them to expandthis list for their specific project needs. Family and parts must be used to differentiate groups ofelements with the BIM in order to create the following:• Quantity takeoffs for calculation of cost of all construction materials and activities relatedto the installation of those materials.• Extraction and re-symbolization of model data to files for the creation of contract drawingson sheet borders.• Renderings of the BIM for communication of design and as a deliverable to the client.• Support of the construction model data extraction• Querying of elements so to make simultaneous changes to multiple design elements as1 April 2007 Version Army Reserve DPSR Manual -- Appendix 3
