“…In order to acquire the value of the OC, a detailed energy model framework of the existing conditions illustrates the scope and level of energy simulation (refer to Table 1 below). Firstly, the three-dimensional model of the case building was constructed in Autodesk Revit [24] based on the original construction document and field measurements. Secondly, the building's basic physical and mechanical information was uploaded to the Sefaira web application [25] through the plug-in tool in Autodesk Revit.…”

A comprehensive case study on life-cycle cost analysis (LCCA) was conducted on a two- story education building with a projected 40-year lifespan in College Park, Maryland. The aim of this paper was to (1) create a life cycle assessment model, using an education building to test the model, (2) compare the life cycle cost (LCC) of different renovation scenarios, taking into account added renewable energy resources to achieve the university’s overall carbon neutrality goal, and (3) verify the robustness of the LCC model by conducting sensitivity analysis and studying the influence of different variables. Nine renovation scenarios were constructed by combining six renovation techniques and three renewable energy resources. The LCCA results were then compared to understand the cost-effective relation between implementing energy reduction techniques and renewable energy sources. The results indicated that investing in energy-efficient retrofitting techniques was more cost-effective than investments in renewable energy sources in the long term. In the optimum scenario, renovation and renewable energy, when combined, produced close to a 90% reduction in the life cycle cost compared to the baseline. The payback period for the initial investment cost, including avoided electricity costs, varies from 1.4 to 4.1 years. This suggests that the initial investment in energy-efficient renovation is the primary factor in the LCC of an existing building.

“…Revit is a 3D modeling software that allows users to model various building elements to visualize them before working in the field (Zolotova et al, 2015). Revit 2022 was used to help develop a quantity takeoff BIM-based calculation in carrying out this research (Nguyen et al, 2022).…”

Construction projects have become increasingly complicated and challenging to manage in recent years, especially in analyzing the quantity and cost estimation of construction work to get accurate results and overrun costs. The interdependence among different work items involved, such as architects, civil and electrical works, is one of the fundamental reasons. Besides that, the differences in standards used in analyzing the quantity and unit cost per work item made it more complicated. This study analyzed the existing modeling based on the measurement rules and unit cost standards to analyze the problem which has been explained above. Understanding the items was considered when examining the walls quantity to avoid missing information. In addition, measurement rules standards are utilized to calculate QTO, including NRM 2 standards from the UK and SMPI standards from Indonesia, to calculate the cost based on Indonesia standard SNI-AHSP. Furthermore, using visual programming Dynamo to analyze the quantity of wall works based on the required data, extract the data/information needed to calculate the cost based on unit cost standard, and check if the walls intersect with other elements to avoid excess quantity. Finally, using BIM technology based on standard measurement rules and overlapping element analysis to calculate the quantity and cost produced accurate quantity results and obtained the maximum cost detail per work item. Moreover, generate the information about the analysis results by utilizing the intelligent module to present the required information of the wall works, which improves the inadequacy of BIM. Indeed, it could save more time than calculating them manually and reduce human errors.

“…The high dependence of the level of BIM technologies maturity in a project on the professional level of its performers is noted by many researchers [30,31]. The experience of many countries [32,33,34,35] shows that the implementation of new training programs based on secondary specialized and higher educational institutions, as well as retraining and advanced training programs can effectively solve personnel issues related to the need of new competencies for all project participants. So, in Singapore, the level of 100% use of BIM in design organizations was achieved in 2015, the entire process of transformation of the industry was accompanied by the participation of a specialized training and research unit -BCA Academy.…”

In this paper, the authors consider the current state and level of implementation of building information modeling applied to transport infrastructure at the stages of their life cycle in Russia and abroad. Possible prerequisites for the transfer of knowledge and technologies of building information modeling from the civil and industrial facilities to the field of transport construction are highlighted according to the accumulated experience in the design, construction and operation of such facilities in various countries and Russia. Special emphasis is placed on examples of the world’s largest implemented or ongoing projects for the construction of transport infrastructure. The experience of implementing these projects was analyzed from the point of view of the software used in relation to all stages of the life cycle of transport infrastructure objects: design, construction and subsequent operation. The prospects for the development of data exchange formats in the context of the existing problem of mutual integration of BIM and GIS for transport infrastructure objects to ensure their complementarity and compatibility are also considered. The functional levels of the use of various software within the framework of companies implementing project activities using information modeling technologies are highlighted. A list of criteria characterizing the level of information modeling technologies integration to transport infrastructure objects into the activities of participants in the life cycle of these objects is highlighted. A review of the regulatory framework of information modeling in construction in Russia is carried out, and the main differences in this area with the regulatory regulation of this area in the European Union are noted. Conclusions are made about the key reference points for the development of information modeling of transport infrastructure facilities on a national scale, leading customer companies and contractors.
