BIM, STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS AND COMMUNICATION USING COMMON DATA ENVIRONMENT (CDE) IN THE FIELD OF WATER MANAGEMENT

Abstract. Presentation consists of three parts, which are interconnected:

1. BIM application for plants treatment and other complicated structures in the field of water management
2. Statics of water management structures in the BIM environment
3. Application of Common Data Environment (CDE) for water management

Two areas – statics and water management technology – are crucial for water management structures. Speaking of statics, we mean the statics of reinforced concrete structures. In our company AQUA PROCON s.r.o. we deal with this area comprehensively, ie. from the initial design in the BIM architectural and construction software, through transferring a load-bearing model to BIM software for 3D reinforcement modelling to evaluating model in static design software. All communication is held in Common Data Environment (CDE). Within this environment, a three-way communication is carried out by the designer, contractor and contracting authority. Part of our performance is also above-standard support for reinforced concrete contractors. We provide models of reinforced concrete structures in LOD 400. The use of Common Data Environment (CDE) does not concern only statics, but also the work of all other professions and project participants. Our activities and workflows are based on the philosophy of OPENBIM and IFC.
