Adaptation 4D and 5D BIM for BIM/GIS data integration in construction project management

Abstract

Construction project management contains a sequence of activities such as planning, completing, scheduling and cost estimation. Building Information Modelling (BIM) is one of the technologies that can be used to manage the complexity of construction documentation. BIM provides a digital visualization of building structures in three dimensional (3D) and store all the geometric and semantic data likes construction element, material properties, construction details, and schedules but lacking feature like geospatial analyses. Geographic Information System (GIS) can apply in construction project to overcome the limitation because GIS can offer advantages in route design, cost estimation, site layout, material layout design and construction planning. Therefore, integration BIM/GIS is recommended to produce an operational of construction project management. This paper presents the advantages of BIM-based in term of scheduling (4D BIM) and cost estimation (5D BIM) in the scope of project management to control the time efficiency and cost saving during the construction process. 4D and 5D BIM data were examine during data integration between BIM and GIS by using Feature Manipulation Engine to bring the gap in construction project management. 4D BIM data develop using Naviswork while 5D BIM developed using Autodesk Revit. GIS data management was used to maintain and update the construction database to assist the project planning.
