Building Information Modelling Technology G (11808.1)

This unit presents the applications and practices of BIM for building engineering aspects. The relevant BIM knowledge and technologies will be discussed and analysed to provide students with the advanced understanding, application, visualization and measurement of BIM-based civil, structural, mechanical and electrical design and engineering.

Learning outcomes

On successful completion of this unit, students will be able to:
1. Demonstrate advanced knowledge of BIM-based structural, mechanical and electrical engineering requirements, building and construction standards, codes and practices;
2. Analyse and model engineering systems of building elements and compile building information ready for planning, design and construction;
3. Develop building engineering data in BIM applications and integrate into a common data environment; and
4. Create and evaluate the application and practices of BIM-based digital engineering models to design and construction case studies.
