A crescente difusão do uso da tecnologia BIM mostra que um novo paradigma para o trabalho colaborativo em projeto precisa ser criado. Em diferentes países e cenários, percebem-se muitas barreiras a serem transpostas para o aproveitamento pleno dos benefícios do BIM. Faltam conhecimentos sobre a integração da nova tecnologia para a melhoria do processo de projeto. Falta também uma compreensão abrangente e uma visão geral de fatores não tecnológicos, caso das relações e interdependências na intersecção entre a gestão do processo de projeto e o BIM. Nesse contexto, a escassez de teorias que busquem a integração entre o domínio da gestão do processo do projeto e a tecnologia BIM motivou o desenvolvimento do presente trabalho. O objetivo geral desta tese é desenvolver uma estrutura conceitual para a gestão do processo de projeto com o uso do BIM. Com uma profunda revisão bibliográfica, mostra-se a difusão fragmentada de conceitos e a tendência na produção de aplicações práticas para a implementação do BIM sem, contudo, estarem elas respaldadas por suficientes reflexões conceituais. Como principal contribuição, a estrutura conceitual desenvolvida procura sustentar o conjunto de metodologias aplicáveis à nova tecnologia e demonstra como relacionar os domínios da gestão do processo de projeto e da tecnologia da informação. São propostos também indicadores de desempenho para medir tanto o nível de desenvolvimento do projeto quanto controlar a qualidade do modelo. Outra contribuição relevante do trabalho é a reformulação do conceito de LOD (nível de desenvolvimento ou de detalhe) para o de Nível de Maturidade, composto pela gestão dos requisitos do programa de necessidades, gestão do nível de desenvolvimento do modelo, medição do nível de interferências físicas e a proposição de um sistema de planejamento e controle do processo de projeto adequado para o BIM. Finalmente, foram feitos testes práticos em dois modelos BIM de edifícios, que possibilitaram a demonstração dos indicadores de desempenho e a sua aplicabilidade prática. Com a estrutura conceitual proposta, entendemos ter contribuído com um novo olhar sobre como deve evoluir a gestão do processo de projeto no contexto da tecnologia BIM. / The increasingly widespread use of BIM technology shows that a new paradigm for design collaborative work needs to be created. In different countries and settings, many barriers to be transposed are perceived to fully exploit the benefits of BIM. There is a lack of knowledge about the integration of new technology to improve the design process. Also lacking are comprehensive understanding and an overview of non-technological factors, besides the relationships and interdependencies in the intersection between design management and BIM design process. In this context, the small number of theories that seek integration between the design management process and BIM motivated the development of this work. The overall objective of this thesis is to develop a conceptual framework for managing the design process by using BIM. The literature review shows a diffusion of fragmented concepts and trends in the production of applications for the implementation of BIM; however, they are not sufficiently supported by conceptual reflections. As the main contribution, the conceptual framework developed seeks to support the set of methodologies applicable to new technologies and shows how to relate the fields of design management process and information technology. Key performance indicators to both measure the project development level and monitor the quality of the model are also proposed. Another important contribution of the thesis was the reformulation of the LOD (level of detail or development) concept to Maturity Level, comprising the management requirements of the program requirements, managing the model development level, level measurement physical interference and proposed a system of planning and control of the design process suitable for BIM. Finally, tests were conducted on two practical BIM models of buildings, which enabled the demonstration of performance indicators and their applicability. With the proposed conceptual framework, we believe to have contributed to a new perspective on how to evolve the management of the design process in the BIM context.

Os empreendimentos de retrofit vem ganhando destaque dentro do segmento de construção habitacional, dado o aumento de idade do estoque existente. A gestão de empreendimentos de retrofit apresenta muitos desafios, principalmente quando a execução da obra ocorre em edificações ocupadas. Em geral, há muitos desafios ligados às perturbações causadas aos usuários destas edificações. Alguns estudos realizados indicam que o Building Information Modeling (BIM) tem contribuído para a gestão da produção de empreendimentos novos. Entretanto, no âmbito de retrofit, o BIM tem sido pouco explorado, principalmente quanto ao uso de modelagem 4D no processo de produção. O objetivo desta dissertação consiste em propor recomendações para o uso de BIM 4D na gestão da produção de empreendimentos habitacionais de retrofit. Tais recomendações tem como propósito auxiliar tomadores de decisão envolvidos na gestão deste tipo de empreendimento, particularmente no que se refere à identificação e minimização de perturbações que afetam os usuários finais durante a obra. A estratégia de pesquisa adotada neste trabalho foi a Design Science Research, na qual se buscou o desenvolvimento de um conjunto de prescrições para um problema real. Considerando o caráter exploratório desta pesquisa e algumas limitações no estudo empírico, a fase de compreensão do problema teve maior destaque do que a fase de implementação da solução. O estudo empírico foi realizado em uma obra na Irlanda do Norte, sendo que diferentes cenários de execução foram propostos para a execução da obra, utilizando BIM 4D para a identificação e redução das perturbações para os usuários finais. Entre as principais contribuições do trabalho, pode-se destacar a caracterização das perturbações causadas durante as obras de retrofit quando ocupadas pelos usuários, assim como o uso de cenários simulados com o uso de BIM 4D, na análise de planos alternativos nas etapas de projeto e produção. / There has been a growing interest in retrofit projects in the house building sector, given the increasing age of the existing building stock. In general, retrofit projects bring a number of challenges, especially when works are carried out in occupied buildings. Much of these challenges are related to disruptions caused to occupiers. Previous studies have indicated that Building Information Modeling (BIM) has contributed substantially in production management for new projects. However, the application of BIM in retrofit has not been much explored, especially concerning the use of 4D modelling to simulate production processes. The objective of this dissertation is to propose a set of guidelines for using 4D BIM for managing production in housing retrofit projects. Such recommendations were devised to support decision makers involved in the management of this type of project, particularly regarding the identification and minimization of disruptions that affect final users during the construction stage. Design Science Research was the research approach adopted in this investigation, in which a set of prescriptios were proposed for the solution of real problems. In the present study, the solution is a set of guidelines to be adopted by managers. Considering the exploratory character of this research work, and some limitations in the empirical study, the understanding the problem was the more emphasized than the implementation of the solution. The empirical study was developed in a construction project carried out in Nothern Ireland, in which different scenarios for the construction phase were developed using 4D BIM models, in order to identify and reduce disruptions to the end users. The main contributions of this investigation were related to the characterization of different types of disruption, and the use of scenarios simulated in BIM models developed for analyzing alternative plans during the design and production stages.

Os controles de produção e qualidade executados no canteiro de obras têm sido frequentemente associados a trâmites burocráticos, sendo limitados a tarefas administrativas, em lugar de adicionar valor para os clientes internos e externos. Por esta razão, diversas pesquisas propuseram abordagens e indicadores para a integração entre controles de produção e qualidade. Uma das abordagens apontadas na literatura como promissora consiste no uso de dispositivos móveis, para apoiar a implementação destes controles. Tais dispositivos permitem a gestão de grandes quantidades de informações, evitando retrabalhos e erros derivados da coleta manual no papel e transcrição posterior para dispositivos digitais. Outros esforços têm se focado na integração entre os modelos de processo e produto de forma que a informação possa ser utilizada de forma mais eficaz na fase de construção. Os modelos de processo são necessários para realizar o planejamento e controle da produção, enquanto os modelos do produto são relacionados a representações 2D e 3D das obras e, mais recentemente, a modelos BIM. No entanto, a literatura sobre o uso de tecnologia da informação para implementar sistemas integrados de controle da produção e da qualidade é escassa. O objetivo do presente trabalho consiste em desenvolver um modelo para a integração entre processos gerenciais, representados pelos sistemas de planejamento e controle da produção e de gestão da qualidade, e um modelo BIM do produto, buscando facilitar o acompanhamento da execução da obra, incluindo o desempenho em termos de qualidade e a ocorrência de perdas. Foram desenvolvidos dois estudos empíricos em diferentes empresas construtoras, sendo adotada a abordagem metodológica da design science research. A principal contribuição deste trabalho está relacionada à execução da integração entre os resultados de controles pró-ativos no canteiro e o modelo BIM do empreendimento de forma sistemática. Além disso, o modelo proposto tem a possibilidade de ser adaptado para usos diversos, podendo, assim, incorporar informações correspondentes a outras fases do ciclo de vida dos empreendimentos construtivos. / Production and quality controls undertaken in construction sites have often been associated to bureaucratic procedures, being limited to simple administrative tasks, instead of adding value for internal and external stakeholders. For that reason, some research studies have proposed approaches and indicators for the integration of production and quality controls. One of these approaches pointed out in the literature is the use of mobile devices, to support the implementation of those controls. Those devices allow the management of large information batches, reducing rework and errors derived from manual paper-based data collection and further transcription to digital media. Other efforts have focused on the integration between product and process models so that information can be more effectively used during the construction phase of the project. Process models are necessary for carrying out production planning and control, while product models are concerned with 2D or 3D design, and, most recently, with BIM models. Nonetheless, the literature on the use of information technology for implementing integrated production and quality control is scarce. The aim of this research work is to develop a model for the integration of management processes, composed by production planning, control and quality management processes, and a BIM product model, in order to facilitate the monitoring of project execution, including the performance in terms of quality and the occurrence of waste. Two empirical studies were carried out in different construction companies, using the design science research approach. The main contributions of this investigation are related to the integration between some proactive control results and the BIM model in a systematic way. Furthermore, the proposed model has the possibility to be adapted for diverse uses, such as incorporating information from different phases of the construction project life cycle.

Desafios em coordenação causados pela falta de integração entre projeto, produção e montagem em empresas que entregam sistemas de edificações pré-fabricados do tipo engineerto- order (ETO) têm levado a um aumento na adoção de tecnologias de informação. Embora as ferramentas de Building Information Modelling (BIM) têm sido utilizadas há vários anos, muitas empresas ainda não puderam implementar integralmente e tampouco perceber as vantagens de fluxos de trabalho integrado por BIM. Por outro lado, infraestruturas robustas de tecnologia desenvolvidas no setor da manufatura, a exemplo das empregadas em Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), representam novas oportunidades para estabelecer melhores conexões entre as ferramentas necessárias para o desenvolvimento de produtos de engenharia sofisticada e para o planejamento e controle de sistemas de produção em ambientes complexos. O objetivo dessa pesquisa é entender o contexto de implementação de BIM nessas empresas Design Science Research foi a abordagem metodológica adotada nesta pesquisa. Um conjunto de estudos empíricos foram conduzidos em uma empresa de estruturas metálicas do Brasil. Esses estudos permitiram identificar desafios a nível de projeto e da organização, mostrando que informações do produto contidos nos modelos BIM poderiam ser reutilizadas a jusante da cadeia de valor para diversas finalidades, tais como análise de engenharia, detecção de conflitos, e simulações de produção e de operações logísticas. Portanto, soluções integradas devem ser co-desenvolvidas por membros de equipes de diferentes departamentos funcionais. Esse poderia ser o primeiro passo para a transição da atual utilização de funções BIM para o visionado ambiente BIM-PLM. O roteiro e as diretrizes de implementação – fundamentadas nas abordagens de Sistemas Sociotécnicos e Technology Roadmapping – foram propostas para apoiar a criação de uma visão para a gestão de tecnologia. Para tanto, esta investigação fornece as configurações para entender o contexto de implementação e apresenta fatores críticos relacionados à adoção de tecnologias digitais integradas. / Coordination challenges caused by the lack of integration between design, production and assembly in companies that deliver engineer-to-order (ETO) prefabricated building systems have resulted in the growing adoption of information technologies. Although Building Information Modelling (BIM) tools have been used in the construction industry for several years, many firms have not been able to fully implement them and take advantages of BIM integrated workflows. By contrast, robust technology infrastructures developed in the manufacturing sector, such as those employed in Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), represent new opportunities to establish better connections between digital tools which are necessary for the development of sophisticated engineering products, and planning and controlling production systems in complex environments, such as ETO prefabricated building systems. The aim of this investigation is to understand the context of BIM implementation in this type of firm. Design Science Research was the methodological approach adopted in this investigation A set of empirical studies were conducted in a Steel Fabricator company from Brazil. Those studies enabled the identification of challenges at project and organizational level by showing that product information contained in BIM models could be reused downstream in the value chain for different purposes, such as engineering analysis, clash detection, simulation of logistics and assembly operations. Therefore, integrated solutions should be co-developed by team members from different functional departments. This would be the first step for the transition from the current utilization of BIM functions towards the envisioned BIM-PLM environment. A roadmap and a set of guidelines for implementation, grounded on Socio- Technical Systems and Technology Roadmapping approaches, have been proposed to support the creation of a vision for technology management. In order to do so, this investigation provides the settings to understand the implementation context and critical factors related to the adoption of integrated digital technologies.

BIM står för Building Information Modeling. Det innebär att man har en gemensambyggmodell som innehåller information relevant för alla aktörer. Skillnaden mellan en 3Doch BIM modell är förutom visualiseringen att man har tillgång till fler dimensioner s om tidoch kostnad. Detta leder till en större tydlighet för alla aktörer under en byggnads livscykel.IFC format är ett neutralt filformat som underlättar informationsbyte mellan olika BIMverktyg. IFC format har utvecklats av byggbranschen och ägs inte a v någon leverantör. VDC, som står för Virtual Design Construction, är NCC:s sätt att arbeta med projekt knutnatill BIM. VDC ger möjligheten att ge användaren uppdaterad information för att förståkundens önskemål och hur man ska förverkliga det. Ett led i detta arbete är att undersöka nyamängdavtagningsmetoder och jämföra dem. Syftet med examenarbetet var att jämföra 4 olika mängdavtagningsmetoder utifrån tid ochkvalitet. De 4 olika metoderna var Vico Office, Solibri, Bluebeam och den traditionellamän gdavtagningen för hand. Mängdavtagningen avgränsades endast till att mängda ickebärande innerväggar i projektet. Vico Office, Solibri, Bluebeam och mängdning för hand är de 4 metoderna som granskats.Underlag för mängdavtagningen har varit en IFC fil er o ch 2D ritningar. Från IFC filernagjordes mängdavtagning i Vico Office och Solibri. 2D ritningarna användes till att ta frammängder från Bluebeam och för hand. Mängdavtagningen resulterar i en jämförelse avmängderna man har fått. Sammanställning har geno mförts i Excel. Mängdavtagningen har utförts på Kvarteret Pedagogen som är en nyproduktion avflerbostadshus i Karslundsskogen. Det består av 3 huskroppar med 55 lägenheter på 5våningar. Byggstart var 2015 och byggnaderna står färdiga i dagsläget Resultatet visade på markanta skillnader mellan de 4 metoderna. Resultaten visade att SolibriModel Checker är den programvara som var bäst lämpad för mängdavtagning om man toghänsyn till tid och mängd. Den var också den mest användarvänliga av de 4 metoderna. / BIM stands for Building Information Modeling. This means that you have a common buildingmodel that contains information relevant to all members of the building process . Thedifference between a 3D and BIM model is in addition to visualization that you have access tomore dimensions such as time and cost. This leads to greater clarity for all members during abuilding's life cycle. IFC for mat is a neutral file format that facilitates information exchangebetween different BIM tools. IFC format has been developed by the construction industry andis not owned by any supplier. VDC, which stands for Virtual Design Construction, is NCC's way ofworking on projectslinked to BIM. VDC provides the opportunity to provide the user with updated information tounderstand the customer's wishes and how to impleme nt it. A part of this work includesinvestigating new methods of quantity takeoff and comparing them. The purpose of the thesis work was to compare 4 different methods ofquantity takeoff basedon time and quality. The 4 different methods were Vico Office, Solibri, Bluebeam and thetraditional quantity takeoff by hand (manual) manual). The quantity take off was limited only to theamount of non bearing inner walls in the project. Vico Office, Solibri, Bluebeam andquantity takeoff by hand are the 4 methods reviewed. Thebasis for the quantity take off has been an IFC file and 2D drawings. From the IFC file, takeoffwas made in Vico Office and Solibri. The 2D drawings were used to obtain quantities fromBluebeam and by hand. The quantity take off results in a comparison of the quantities that wasreceived . Summary of quantities has been carried out in Excel. Thequantities has been collected from Kvarteret Pedagogen which is a new construction ofmulti family houses in Karslundsskogen . It consists of 3 houses with 55 apartments on 5floors. Building start was 2015 an d today the project is complete. The result showed significant differences between the four meth ods. The results showed thatSolibri Model Checker is the software that is best suited for quantity takeoff when consideringtime and quantity. It was also the most user friendly of the 4 methods.

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is an emerging technology that utilizes 3D graphical representations to improve communication, collaboration, and data exchange. Immersive Visualization Environment (IVE) is another promising technology that enhances the 3D graphical representation to achieve a higher level of a sense of presence. The connection between the BIM technology that utilizes the 3D graphical representation and the IVE technology that enhances the 3D graphical representation has led many professionals to visualize BIM in immersive environments. This study is an attempt to overcome a systematic issue presented by available immersive visualization systems. The problem is that in order to visualize an information-rich BIM model from a commercial BIM application in an immersive visualization environment, the BIM model needs to pass through a tough conversion process and loss a large amount of its information. This research study utilizes the Application Programming Interface (API) of a commercially available BIM application to develop an immersive visualization environment. This approach was applied on Autodesk Navisworks software by developing a software program that utilizes Navisworks' API to control Navisworks' camera angle and generate an immersive visualization environment. A prototype of the approach was built in the Department of Construction Science at Texas A & M University and named BIM CAVE Prototype. The overall goal of this research was to prove that it is possible to transform a commercial BIM application into an immersive visualization system. A phenomenological study was utilized by interviewing subject matter experts from the construction industry. The intent of this effort was to explore and develop a phenomenological understanding of how research participants perceived the BIM CAVE system. The results show that the BIM CAVE can be considered an immersive visualization environment because it contains a majority of the immersive visualization environment features. However, a variety of technical limitations must be overcome before it can be called a fully immersive and functional visualization environment. Moreover, even though this investigation was to some extent successful, this research approach needs to be tested on other commercially available BIM applications before generalizations are made.

Brandskyddsprojekteringen i olika projekt sker i dagsläget i 2D-CAD där filerna sparas iPDF-format. Detta framgick från de olika intervjuerna som skedde i samband med rapporten.Detta sätt att projektera på kan göra så att det uppstår olika typer av problem i projektet bådeför brandskyddsprojekteringen och de övriga discipliner som är med och projekterar. Närbrandskyddsprojekteringen inte deltar i att använda 3D-BIM i de olika projekten så försvårassamordningen av modellerna som görs av arkitekten eller BIM-samordnaren. De problem somkan uppstå består även av de möjligheter som inte tas till vara på vid BIM-användning avbrandskyddsprojekteringen. Dessa möjligheter och fördelar kan t.ex. vara ökad förståelse förkoncept och färdig byggnad, minskad tidsåtgång i byggskedet, högre produktivitet ochkvalitet m.fl. [1]. Det finns även möjligheter inriktad till brandskyddsprojekteringen där BIMbland annat underlättar framtagningen av brandskyddsritningar ochlivssäkerhetsystemsritningar.Implementering av BIM i brandskyddsprojekteringen kan ske på olika sätt. Efter delitteraturstudier som gjorts har det kommit fram till att BIM kan implementeras på olika sättgenom att t.ex. ta till vara på de olika förutsättningar som finns i dagsläget. Dessaförutsättningar är olika BIM-programvaror och BIM-kurser som gör det lättare attimplementera BIM för brandskyddsprojekteringen. Det går även att vid upphandling av deolika entreprenadformerna ge förslag och ställa krav på att projekteringen ska ske i BIM iförfrågningsunderlag eller i CAD- och BIM-manualen. Krav och regler kan även ställas avregeringen där ett liknande exempel är i Storbritannien där regeringen krävt byggnads- ochinfrastrukturprojekt att jobba med BIM i nivå 2 sedan April 2016 [2, 3].Boverkets byggregler kan också ställa mer strikta krav när det gäller projekteringen utifrånPBL och PBF där de kan ställa krav på att det ska ske i BIM.Utifrån dessa problem, möjligheter och förutsättningar som finns idag med implementering avBIM i brandskyddsprojekteringen kommer övergången inte att vara lätt och kommer inte attske snarast. Men detta borde göras i och med att BIM utvecklas hela tiden och då kommerövergången från 2D-CAD att bli ännu svårare i framtiden. Därmed bordebrandskyddsprojekteringen och de övriga disciplinerna i byggprocessen sträva att jobba i 3DBIMeftersom att detta nyttjar för alla som är delaktiga i projektet. / Fire protection design in various projects is currently done in 2D-CAD where the files aresaved in PDF format. This was evident from the various interviews that took place inconnection with the report. This way of designing can cause various types of problems in theproject that occur for both the fire protection design and the others disciplines involved in thedesigning. When the fire protection design does not participate in using 3D-BIM in theprojects, collaboration of the models made by the architect or the BIM coordinator willcomplicate. The problems that may arise also consist of the possibilities not taken for BIMuse of the fire protection design. These opportunities and benefits can for example be a betterunderstanding of concepts and completed building, reduced time spent in the constructionphase, higher productivity and quality etc. [1]. There are also possibilities for the fireprotection design, where BIM facilitates the production of the fire protection plans and lifesecuritysystem drawings.Implementation of BIM in the fire protection design can be done in different ways. Followingthe literature studies, it has come to conclusion that BIM can be implemented in differentways for example by taking advantage of the various conditions that exist today. Theseconditions include different BIM software and BIM courses that makes it easier to implementBIM for the fire protection design. It is also possible to make proposals for the design of BIMin the specifications or in the CAD- and BIM manuals when procuring the various types ofcontractors. Requirements and rules can also be set by the government where a similarexample where made in the UK where the government demanded construction andinfrastructure projects to work with BIM at level 2 since April 2016 [2, 3].Boverkets byggregler can also make stricter requirements regarding the design by PBL andPBF, where they can demand that it should be done in BIM. Based on these problems,opportunities and conditions that exist today with the implementation of BIM in the fireprotection design, the transition will not be easy and will not be happening soon. But thisshould be done as BIM evolves all the time and then the transition from 2D CAD will be evenmore difficult in the future. Therefore, the fire protection design and the other disciplines inthe construction process should aim to work in 3D-BIM, as this is useful to all those who areinvolved in the project.
