PurposeGreen building (GB) maintenance is increasingly accepted in the construction industry, so it can now be interpreted as an industry best practice for maintenance planning. However, the performance competency and design knowledge of the practice's building control instrument process can be affected by its evaluation and the information management of building information modelling (BIM)–based model checking (BMC). These maintenance-planning problems have not yet been investigated in instances such as the Grenfell Tower fire (14 June 2017, approximately 80 fatalities) in North Kensington, West London.Design/methodology/approachThis study proposes a theoretical framework for analysing the existing conceptualisation of BIM tools and techniques based on a critical review of GB maintenance environments. These are currently employed on GB maintenance ecosystems embedded in project teams that can affect BMC practices in the automation system process. In order to better understand how BMC is implemented in GB ecosystem projects, a quantitative case study is conducted in the Malaysian public works department (Jabatan Kerja Raya (JKR)).FindingsGB ecosystem projects were not as effective as planned due to safety awareness, design planning, inadequate track insulation, environmental (in) compatibility and inadequate building access management. Descriptive statistics and an ANOVA were applied to analyse the data. The study is reinforced by a process flow, which is transformed into a theoretical framework.Originality/valueIndustry practitioners can use the developed framework to diagnose BMC application issues and leverage the staff competency inherent in an ecosystem to plan GB maintenance environments successfully.

“…better planning control and increased cost effectiveness) with a high standard of co-ordination (Lago et al , 2017). Steinle et al (2019) suggested that GB material construction ecosystem are those manufactured 80–90% off site (30–45% are load-bearing elements) in a factory-controlled environment and components are transported to the final building site. GB material construction ecosystem are closely related to the structural panel mass or shear wall displacement that need to be maintained by computing or fuzzy planning approaches.…”

Implementation of BIM-based model checking technology for managing maintenance planning in green building ecosystem

PurposeThe green building (GB) maintenance industry has been under increasing pressure by designers to demonstrate its evaluation and information management of building information modelling based model checking (BMC) to the competency's performance and design knowledge of building control instrument. This main problem has been termed as maintenance planning level. Although maintenance planning has been explored in GB maintenance environments, less is known about what maintenance planning problems currently exist and what their causes are, such as the recent fire in the Grenfell Tower (14 June 2017, about 80 fatalities) in North Kensington, West London. The aim of this paper is to identify how GB maintenance environments could integrate BMC within their processes. The purpose of this study is to assess the BMC technology management of GB maintenance ecosystem and that of a soft skills level to establish the impact of innovation policy features on database and safety risk function mechanism.Design/methodology/approachTo achieve this aim, a comprehensive literature review of the existing conceptualisation of BMC practices is reviewed and the main features of Information and Communication Technology tools and techniques currently being employed on such GB maintenance ecosystem is carried out to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the previous studies. The conceptual framework explores the importance of integration of BMC in the construction phase to identify alternative methods in the automation system (AS) process to co-generate, monitor and optimise BMC.FindingsThe results confirm that BMC tool positively influences database application and risk mechanism of construction project safety while agreeableness negatively does. Besides, database application has a negative influence on innovation policy of company towards BMC implementation. Propositions derived not only shed light on guidance for future research on the soft skills of construction organisations, but also provide decision-making support through a better understanding of the factors affecting soft skills level amongst biggest construction companies.Originality/valueThus far, this study advances the knowledge about how GB maintenance environments can ensure BMC delivery. This paper highlights the need for further research to integrate BMC in GB maintenance environments validates the framework across the construction phase with different GB project managers and engineers.

Planning the maintenance of green building materials for sustainable development: a building information modelling approach

2020

JFMPC

Purpose Most green building (GB) materials, which are used widely in the construction sector in Malaysia, perform poorly in terms of energy efficiency and sustainability. Nevertheless, during maintenance planning of these materials, the focus is often directed towards comfort and design instead. However, as GB material construction projects grow in scale and complexity, interconnections between the activities and processes can be noticed during problematic planning performance management to monitor the GB material components for corrective and preventive maintenance actions. Design/methodology/approach The concept of GB material maintenance planning for sustainable development and the main features of information and communication technology tools and techniques are based on analysis of literature reviews of GB material scenarios. Findings The results show how decision-making support in maintenance planning can be unsuccessful and how planning decisions can frame the content of an integrated system to analyse information and reduce risks of GB material failure. Originality/value The paper concludes that implementing a research framework for developing such a system can help improve the sustainable performance of maintenance planning of GB material economic, social and environmental issues.
