BIM as a means of end-to-end design, construction, and operation

Contemporary technologies are developing at a tremendous speed. The growing computing power of modern processors and rapid technological development – all of this undoubtedly requires new information processing and systematization tools. BIM modeling technology is an essential tool in the design, construction, and even operation of buildings and structures. This technology allows the end-to-end design of various objects, as well as systematization of information in a single information model. This work investigates the effectiveness of BIM technologies in the processes of design, construction, and operation of buildings and structures, as well as the development of information modeling technologies. The research is carried out using the examples of two hospital complexes, i.e., the HUS Bridge in Helsinki and the National Medical Research Center of Pediatric Hematology, Oncology and Immunology named after Dmitry Rogachev). Advantages of applying information modeling methods in the construction of socially significant and critical facilities are demonstrated. The conducted study proved the efficiency of modern BIM solutions, particularly in terms of reducing the construction period, determining the unified information and communication space, eliminating conflicts, and automated calculation of the most important design, construction, and operational parameters. BIM outperforms conventional design methods in terms of the possibility of developing a strategy for the implementation of the construction project, integrated management of graphic data, and creating structurally and architecturally complex facilities.
