BIM Coordination

L&T EduTech via Coursera

Overview

In this course, you will learn about Design Coordination, Engineering Analysis, Visualization, Clash Detection, and Level of Development. "Design Authoring - Federated Model" introduces ISO 19650 concepts and the benefits of Federated Models, guiding you through creating a federated model using Autodesk Revit with practical examples. "Design Authoring - Engineering Analysis" covers Structural, Energy, and Lighting Analysis, emphasizing design assessment and optimization, along with thorough Design Review. "Visualization" explores techniques like walkthroughs, fly-throughs, and 3D sectioning, with applications in AR/VR/MR and practical BIM demos in field and virtual reality settings. "Interference / Clash Check" introduces Clash Check fundamentals, clash types, Clash Detection processes including priority management, rules, reporting, and collaborative roles. Finally, "Level Of Development (LOD)" explains LOD definitions across architectural and engineering elements, and LOD matrices for structured BIM data management and project information progression. Join us to master these essential BIM skills for effective project coordination and development.

Syllabus

  • Design Authoring - Federated Model
    • In this module, you will explore the concept and implementation of federated modeling in BIM. Starting with an introduction to federated models and the ISO 19650 standards for shared information, you will learn strategies and benefits associated with federated models in collaborative projects. Practical skills include linking Revit files, managing linked models, exporting files in various formats, and creating renders and animations to enhance project visualization and communication.
  • Design Authoring - Engineering Analysis
    • In the "Design Authoring - Engineering Analysis" module, you'll learn fundamental engineering analysis techniques using BIM. Topics include structural analysis for both static and dynamic considerations, energy analysis to optimize building efficiency, lighting analysis for interior lighting improvements, and comprehensive design review processes. This module provides essential skills to enhance building performance through BIM tools.
  • Visualization
    • The Visualization module teaches how to view and present models effectively in BIM. It covers creating different views, using visualization modes, navigating through models with walkthroughs and flythroughs, managing layers and properties, and exploring models in sections. It also includes using tablets and mobile devices for visualization, setting up BIM kiosks and rooms, and experiencing models in VR, MR, and AR through demos
  • Interference / Clash Check
    • The "Interference / Clash Check" module focuses on mastering clash detection and resolution in BIM projects. Participants will learn the fundamentals of clash checking, including types of clashes and clash avoidance strategies using federated models. The module covers detailed processes for clash detection, prioritization using matrices, defining clash detection rules, generating reports, and managing clashes effectively through grouping. Participants will also gain practical experience through comprehensive demos that illustrate real-world clash scenarios and resolution techniques using industry-standard tools and methodologies.
  • Level of Development (LOD)
    • In the "LOD - Level of Development" module, you'll learn about Level of Development (LOD) in BIM. This includes understanding LOD, Level of Detail, and Level of Information. The module covers practical examples like wall foundations, precast structures, and plumbing systems to illustrate LOD applications. You'll also explore LOD charts, matrices, and the Model Progression Matrix for better project communication and standardization in BIM.
