Advancing BIM Processes for Composite Structural Systems: A Case Study of an Incubation Center in Turkiye

Öz

The parameters planned for construction projects to be realized in the construction industry are sensitive to cost estimation errors. Developed countries have increased the performance of contractor firms by making the use of BIM technology mandatory to meet the increasing requirements of the construction industry. However, traditional approaches, still used in many countries, are prone to error. This study aims to develop 3D to 5D BIM models for an incubation center project in Türkiye, where BIM technology is not yet mandatory and no official standards have been published. The composite project structure consists of reinforced concrete & steel structural systems. The project has been procured within the scope of Turkish Public Procurement Law. Autodesk Revit and Tekla Structures were used for 3D modeling. The 3D-BIM model at the LOD 400 level was obtained. The obtained quantity data were then processed on the work program, prepared in Primavera P6, and a time and cost schedule were prepared for 52 production items. The 5D-BIM cost simulation was designed via Autodesk Navisworks Manage. The results indicate that the construction cost estimations, which can be obtained by using the 5D-BIM method and financial risk management methodology together, will be beneficial for the tender stakeholders.

Kompozit Yapısal Sistemler için BIM Süreçlerinin Geliştirilmesi: Türkiye'deki Bir Kuluçka Merkezi Örneği

Öz

İnşaat sektöründe planlanan parametreler, maliyet tahmin hatalarına karşı hassastır. Gelişmiş ülkeler, inşaat sektörünün artan gereksinimlerini karşılamak için Yapı Bilgi Modellemesi (YBM) teknolojisinin kullanımını zorunlu hale getirerek yüklenici firmaların başarısını artırmıştır. Ancak, birçok ülkede hala kullanılan geleneksel yaklaşımlar hataya açıktır. Bu çalışma, Türkiye'den bir kuluçka merkezi projesi üzerinde 3B'den 5B'ye BIM modelleri oluşturmayı amaçlamaktadır. Türkiye henüz BIM teknolojisini zorunlu hale getirmemiştir ve yayınlanmış bir standart bulunmamaktadır. Kompozit proje yapısı betonarme ve çelik yapısal sistemlerden oluşmaktadır. Proje, Türk Kamu İhale Kanunu kapsamında ihale edilmiştir. 3D modelleme için Autodesk Revit ve Tekla Structures kullanılmıştır. LOD 400 seviyesinde 3D-BIM modeli oluşturulmuştur. Elde edilen metraj verileri daha sonra Primavera P6'da hazırlanan iş programına işlenmiş ve 52 imalat kalemi için zaman ve maliyet çizelgesi hazırlanmıştır. 5D-BIM maliyet simülasyonu Autodesk Navisworks Manage aracılığıyla tasarlanmıştır. Sonuçlar, 5D-BIM yöntemi ve finansal risk yönetimi metodolojisinin birlikte kullanılmasıyla elde edilebilecek inşaat maliyet tahminlerinin ihale paydaşları için önemli avantajlar sağladığını göstermektedir.
