Analysis of clash detection and quantity take-off using BIM for warehouse construction

Abstract

Lack of integration in the design of a construction project planning, often resulting in clashes between elements. The purpose of this study was to analyze the number and causes of clashes between structural design, precast design, and MEP design for warehousing projects. Then the quantity take-off analysis will be carried out after resolving the clashes. In this study, BIM-based software was used namely Revit® 2020 and Navisworks® Manage 2020. The results of this study found that the number of clashes for the Structural vs Precast components was 289 clashes, for Structural vs MEP components was 191 clashes, and for Precast vs MEP components was 42 clashes. The cause of clashes with the highest percentage was caused by design error (52.36%), followed by design inconsistency (39.13%), and the last was a design discrepancy (8.51%). Based on the calculation of cost changes, a potential saving can be made for HCS panel material and for ducting pipe material as much as 10% of the initial cost.

Clash Avoidance in BIM Based Multidisciplinary Coordination: A Literature Overview

“…Elyano and Yuliastuti corroborated this in their case study where they found design errors causing 52.36% of the detected clashes which were mostly between structural vs MEP components [4]. Design inconsistency caused 39.13% and design discrepancy caused 8.51% of detected clashes, and these clashes were mostly between structural, MEP, and precast components [4]. This work will address the most prominent causes of clashes identified by contemporary literature while discussing potential clash avoidance strategies.…”

“…Mehrbod et al specified design discrepancy, design error, and missing items as the causes of design coordination issues [3], design error being the most frequent cause in the study. Elyano and Yuliastuti corroborated this in their case study where they found design errors causing 52.36% of the detected clashes which were mostly between structural vs MEP components [4]. Design inconsistency caused 39.13% and design discrepancy caused 8.51% of detected clashes, and these clashes were mostly between structural, MEP, and precast components [4].…”

“…Several groups of researchers recognized design errors as one of the most prominent causes of clashes [2] [3] [4]. As explained by Lopez and Love, in the case of an error an unforeseeable or chance intervention takes place [8].…”

The Implementation of Building Information Modelling for Cut and Fill Quantity Takeoff in Toll Road Project

“…However, BIM has been implemented in the infrastructure sector. It offers similar benefits to construction projects regarding project visualization (Vitásek & Zak, 2018;Xing et al, 2020), clash detection (Elyano & Yuliastuti, 2021;Xing et al, 2020), traffic analysis (Castañeda et al, 2021), road e-ISSN: 2723-6692 🕮 p-ISSN: 2723-6595 & pavement design (Tang et al, 2020), existing road analysis (Vignali et al, 2021), quantity takeoff (Chen et al, 2022;Nguyen et al, 2022;Taghaddos et al, 2019), cost estimating (Vitásek & Zak, 2018), and information management (Lin et al, 2020). Over the last two years, there has been significant growth in BIM adoption for transportation infrastructure projects, and this trend is projected to continue.…”
