What we call IFC is actually ISO 16739:2013

For this topic it represents the International Standards OrganizationFounded in 1946 with 25 countries met at the Institute of Civil

Engineers in London With information at www.iso.org where you will see their motto,

“Great things happen when the world agrees”

BIM is widely used in commercial & vertical sectors to manage projects from conception through design, fabrication, construction and future maintenance. Some are using BIM but it is limited by a lack of standardization.

o Identityo Governance & Stewardship Framework o Data Exchange Schemao Funding Mechanism for Support

To use BIM a strategic plan is needed. T-19 initiated a study funded by NCHRP. Project 20-07 Task 377 is titled “Standardized Format for Bridge and Structure Information Models” and it presents a roadmap with the following actionable items.

Establish standards, guidelines, or manuals for bridge project stakeholders to facilitate thewide use of IFC as an exchange standard in BIM for Bridges and Structures in bridge projects.This would include recommending or mandating the use of common modeling format andIFC submittal.

Develop the national standard MVD, data definitions, and data requirements for themodel life cycle. The selected model will be overseen by T-19 with collaboration withAASHTO Technical Joint Committee on Electronic Standards, FHWA, and various stakeholders.

Provide timely update of IFC data dictionary for common bridge elements.

Vendors to offer suitable training covering BIM for Bridges and Structures model development, management, and usage.

Conduct ROI analysis to quantify the benefits of using BIM.

Organize Workshops & facilitate pilot/demonstration project.

Identity: BIM for Bridges and Structures

Data Exchange Schema: The OpenBridge model would give more control on governance but the decision is to develop MVDs compliant with the IFC Standard. Building Smart International, the global organization with IFC oversight, has initiatives working toward BIM for bridges in other countries. Aligning with IFC is appropriate.

Governance & Stewardship: Listed in Roadmap. Overseen by T-19 in collaboration with FHWA, AASHTO Technical Joint Committee on Electronic Standards, etc.

Funding Mechanism: A consultant/contractor will be required, funded by Pooled Fund/FHWA

another.• Exchange Model Requirements – Required data to be

passed at a singular exchange model

passed at a singular exchange model• Data Dictionary – a set of information describing the

contents, format, and structure of a database

• Currently ≈ 2000 attributes in AASHTO/NSBA Database

4-Step Strategic Plan

Phase 1:Program

Phase 2: Develop

Phase 3: Implement

Phase 4: Deploy

Identify the data to be exchanged

Develop data exchange formats and schemas

Implement formats and certify software

Deploy certified software in bridge projects

4-Step Strategic Plan Phase 1 – Program

Phase 1:Program


Process Map: which defines when and between whom the data exchanges happen.


Phase 1:Program


Exchange Model: which defines intents, contents, and requirements of the data exchanges.


Phase 1:Program


Data Dictionary: which defines the data need to be exchanged.


Phase 1:Program


Exchange Model Requirements:which define the level of detail.

4-Step Strategic Plan Phase 2 – Develop

Phase 2: Develop

Develop data exchange formats and schemas

Information Delivery Manual

map to

orIFC

Issues:• Approval of new IFC entities• Electronic signature or stamp• Official testing tools

4-Step Strategic Plan Phase 3 – Implement

Phase 3: Implement

Implement formats and certify software

Tasks:

• Implement the format on software

applications by software vendors

• Certify the software applications by the

owner/maintainer of the formats.

Issues:

• Implementer Support Group (ISG) and Model

Support Group (MSG) for IFC

• Guides, manuals, and ‘go-to’ people

4-Step Strategic Plan Phase 4 – Deploy

Phase 4: Deploy

Deploy certified software in bridge projects

Tasks:

• Deploy the certified software applications

• Modify the bridge project workflow to

accommodate the software applications

Issues:

• Generic or product specific BrIM guides

• How to promote BrIM: methods and

channels

Conclusion

• Short Term• Integration of 3D CAD to facilitate quantities• Specific information standardized for electronic sharing

(camber diagrams, bridge geometry from Engineer to Detailer)

• Longer Term• National data base for bridge definitions• Information delivery manuals created for life cycle

bridge work flow exchanges• Increased assets management capability
