For the construction industry, the application of technology and software to the consulting industry is very urgent, especially in the competition of technology revolution is going on deep and deep. Businesses in general and consulting firms in particular if not catch up, ie failure.

   

High-rise buildings in Vietnam are gradually adopting BIM technology in design, construction and management.

Talking with the reporter of Electronic Newspaper of Construction, Master Nguyen Anh Tuan - General Director of Thanh Nam Construction Consulting Joint Stock Company listed some software technologies for consulting business in the era of the revolution. digitalization network. The first will introduce BIM technology in architecture and urban infrastructure, followed by further discussions on future development technologies that will be more effective in the future. design consulting unit.

Overview of BIM

English BIM means Building Information Management. BIM is software technology that uses 3D modeling to create objects, analyze objects, and transmit building information in digital form. The concept of BIM has emerged in the construction industry starting in the 1970s, but it was not until the early 2000s that technology firms developed and put into practice.

The three-dimensional model is a fully digitized model, which is linked to the project's project database, showing all spatial relationships, geometric information, dimensions , quantity, and material composition of components and parts of the works. BIM can be used to represent the entire life cycle of a building from design, construction, to operation.

In the world, BIM technology is widely applied in the architecture, building from the high-rise to the urban infrastructure.

BIM model for high-rise design

With the construction industry and architecture, especially with the consulting units, BIM allows unprecedented cooperation in design activities. BIM gives all contractors the opportunity to sit together and work on issues before the start of construction. BIM is used to build three-dimensional models of space design; architecture consultants develop their own architectural models; Structural modeling consultancy; Electrical, water, and mechanical engineering for electrical, water, and air conditioning engineering.

There are many programs and software related to digitization in the construction industry and related to BIM, one of the most famous software is Revit. Revit is an intelligent modeling tool that supports the BIM process for architects, design engineers and contractor units, equipment manufacturers. Revit is the dominant software in the world, is the product of the famous technology company No. 1 in the construction industry is Autodesk. Some consultants using BIM in architectural design, structure, electricity and water find that the speed of design increased dozens of times compared to the way they used to. This is a great step forward in developing the competitiveness of enterprises and is a way forward business, towards sustainable development.

Recognizing the important role of BIM in the construction industry, on 22/12/2016, the Prime Minister officially promulgated the roadmap for the application of the BIM in construction and management. project implementation, highlighting a number of ideas as follows: State budget allocation for propaganda, dissemination, training; develop framework training programs; incentives, incentives for businesses using BIM; Specific roadmap for BIM application in Vietnam.

As such, applying BIM not only takes place in the world, but BIM is also aimed at modernizing the construction industry of Vietnam. The rapid application of BIM will be the driving force for the development of Vietnam's construction industry in general and the consulting industry in particular.

Bim for Infrastructure Design Consultant

BIM technology in the construction of urban technical infrastructure such as road system design, rainwater sewage system, sewage, lighting poles, green trees ... It can be said that the application of BIM for urban infrastructure is not much and Many design companies are using a simplified design model on Autocad. The companies supply software for urban infrastructure include the company Hoa Hoa and a few other companies. One of the software technologies used in the design of urban and industrial infrastructure in Vietnam is Intelinfrasuite (Intelligent Infrastructural Suite).

Thanh Nam Construction Consultant Joint Stock Company is a unit that has many urban and industrial infrastructure designs which have applied IntelInfrasuite software, this is BIM application software. About IntelInfrasuite, Thanh Nam Deputy General Director, Mr. Vu Chi Kien, said: Some of the benefits that software brings as digital are the design of urban infrastructure since architects are planning the design. The Simulation of urban infrastructure such as water supply and drainage systems, electricity, green trees, etc .; Self-calculation and notification of intersection of infrastructure systems; automatic calculation of volumes; visual models and interactions between rooms, architects, engineers working on the same project.

And more, the IntelInfrasuite software application speeds up the design of urban infrastructure by about 20 times, minimizing errors and eliminating errors. Intelinfrasuite is a technology product developed by Thanh Nam Construction Joint Stock Company for many years. When using the BIM model with the Intelinfrasuite enterprise software system, the investor is geared toward smart urbanization through complete infrastructure supervision, construction, construction and management through a technology platform from mobile phones, cloud data ...

It can be said that the application of BIM technology for architectural works and urban infrastructure works very effective not only for the construction industry but also specific benefits for the design consulting. Some immediate benefits include: Improved design productivity, reduced errors, teamwork efficiency, and linkages between consultants, builders, and managers.

If the BIM has not implemented BIM, it is necessary to plan immediately. The application of science and technology may be difficult but it is your business to remember the application of science and technology in the digital economy, the industrial revolution 4.0 may not help your business success but if not Applying science and technology the path of failure of your business is certain.
