This course focuses on the processes involved in communicating and collaborating over the built environment facility development lifecycle, using a multi-disciplinary building model server environment to define, interpret, manage and audit the exchange of building information. The course includes: methods of process definition (e.g. using tools such as IDEF0, UML and BPMN), a grounding in the definition of roles and access rights in a working building model server; model building and process management; ways to refine the specific needs for data sharing, particularly analysis and performance measurement; sophisticated analyses from logical and geometrical model analysis, to egress checking, code compliance etc. The course comprises a 1 hour lecture and 2 hour tutorial with written assignments covering methodology and scripting, and a major project implementing a process between the model server and a chosen discipline/application.
