Design, Construction, Property and FM Industry
• Strong multiplier linkages – mining and transport• Macro economic multipliers:
– a one-off sustained 10% improvement in producivity is assumed in each service sector
– the construction sector will have the biggest average annual impact on GDP, at 3% over 20 years (2000-2020)
• Construction Sector Contributes 20% of GDP (including FM)
• 1 in 5 dollars generated in the Australian economy is generate by the AEC-FM industry.
9
Design, Construction, Property and FM Industry
• Growing at average rate of 2.6% pa• Sector income A$130 billion• Highly fragmented
– 230,000 firms employing 730,000 people– 94% of businesses employ less than 5 people
• Federal Government Action Agenda clearly supported formation of CRC to service property and construction

Public-Private Partnerships in R&D
• Build innovative networks of industry, government and research
• Attract and mobilise resources• Research skills training• Respond to global challenges with national
and international partnerships• Implementation to make a difference
15
CRC for Construction Innovation
• A$64M in cash and in-kind over 7 years • Government, industry and research partners
– 21 participants nationally– 400 people involved = 60 EFTS
• Headquartered at QUT in Brisbane– 6 centres nationally
• Only one of its kind in construction in Australia– Building, Infrastructure and FM

Safety Statistics - Australia
• Construction site labour makes up 8% of the Australian workforce but accounts for 15% of all fatalities in the workplace.
• On average one person is killed on a construction site each week in Australia.
• Responsibilities and Core Competencies• Voluntary Code of Practice• Training Toolkits• Performance Assessment Indicators
22
BRITE Project
• Improve the incidence and quality of innovation in the Australian building, construction and FM companies
• 12 National Case Studies• National Surveys• Interviews with 20 of Australia’s most
innovative contractors• Over 200 industry publication articles.

Limitations in Current Industry Practice
• Little support for client requirements/performance or facility briefing
• Lack of integration of facility context for plannin g, sustainability, code checking compliance, etc
• What are most common design/construction errors?– Design errors in construction - due to lack of/or poor
coordination• Inadequate support for asset & facility management
– Where is the asset information for FM?

Generic Attributes of BIM• robust geometry - objects are described by faithful and accurate
geometry, that is measurable
• comprehensive and extensible object properties that expand the meaning of the object - Objects thus can be richly d escribed e.g. a manufacturers’ product code, or cost, or date of l ast service etc.
• semantic richness - the model provides for many types of relationships that can be accessed for analysis and simulation e.g. is-contained-in, is-related-to, is-part-of etc .
• integrated information - the model holds all information in a single repository ensuring consistency, accuracy and acces sibility of data
• life cycle support - the model definition supports data over the complete facility life cycle from conception to dem olition, extending our current over-emphasis on design and construction phase.

BIM Benefits
• Faster and more effective processes – information is more easily shared, can be value-added and reused
• Better design – building proposals can be rigorously analysed, sim ulations can be performed quickly and performance benchmarke d enabling improved and innovative solutions
• Controlled whole life costs and environmental data - environmental performance is predictable, life-cycle costs are un derstood
• Better production quality – documentation output is flexible and exploits automation
• Life-cycle data – requirements, design, construction and operational information can be utilised in facility management
• Integration of planning and implementation processes – government, industry and manufacturers have a common data protocol

Construction Over timeConstruction Over time
• Progression of construction over time;
• Improves quality of:
- Simulations
- Construction Plans
- Safety
- Logistics
- Costs
• Allows professionals to test the design for performance, construction sequences and identify design conflicts.

Business Case for Implementation
• Allow optimisation of design andconstruction alternatives
• Project teams are able to producesimulations of different design ideasand schedules quickly and easily
• Delays and changes can beminimised as design work isintegrated with construction work
• Eliminates potential problems withconstructability, design conflicts,assembly of building componentsand materials delivered to site.
37
HOW TO IMPLEMENTHOW TO IMPLEMENT
• A new work method/process is required in which more detailed information is supplied early on.
• Allow 3D models to be developed initially instead of having to try to convert 2D data.
• 3D models must allow changes to be made without having to completely reconstruct the model.
