involves their exchange between
different designers of disciplines
in a certain time interval, defined
by BEP (BIM Execution Plan), in a
way enables an orderly exchange
of information and data between
the participants in the project.
talk about the BIM project
process, we usually have the case
that the participants in the
project process are the designers
of the discipline, the contractor,
the investor and the legal entity
engaged in the maintenance of
the constructed building. Their
view of the BIM project process,
as well as the transformation of
the BIM model into a digital twin
model, and the availability of data
and information in the digital
twin model are very different.
Therefore, I think it would be
good to consider each of the
mentioned views below:
• Data Storage And Availability
From The Designer’s Perspective
• Data Storage And Availability
From The Contractor’s
Perspective
• Data Storage And Availability
From The Investor’s Perspective
• Data Storage And Availability
From The Facility Manager’s
Perspective
• How does the cloud solution
help with data storage and
availability?
• How does the Autodesk Forge
platform help with data storage
and availability?
Data Storage And
Availability From The
Designer’s
Perspective
In digital twin technology, similar
to the BIM workflow, data can be
viewed in two ways. When we
consider data in the BIM model
or in the digital twin model, it can
be intended for different
calculations within the project of
a certain discipline, then for
different simulations and
predictions of how certain digital
objects will behave in the real
world, etc.
But, we must not lose sight of the
fact that the BIM model or the
digital twin model must also be
intended for exchange with other
disciplines in the project. So how
do you best place them in the
BIM model or in the digital twin
model and make them available
to all participants in the project
process?
The current traditional approach
of exchanging BIM models or
digital twin models, which
However, a major problem in
such an approach to the project
process is that changes made by
a particular discipline in its BIM
model or digital twin model are
not available to all project
participants at the time they are
made.
This further implies that it is
possible for an architect, for
example, to make certain
changes in his BIM model, to
even inform other participants in
the project, but that these
changes may be visible in the BIM
model or digital twin model only
in a few days, when all
participants in the project
process exchange their models
and data in them.
I have found myself countless
times in a situation where my
project team was informed that
certain changes would occur in
the BIM model or the digital twin
model, which created big
problems for us in terms of
disrupting the design dynamics of
the discipline I was part of and
questions whether to continue
designing until an updated BIM
model or digital twin model
arrives.
When we talk about the problem
of storage and availability of data
in BIM models of all participants
in the BIM project process, cloud
