Abstract: Today's construction stakeholders don't care about the elegance of the building information model (BIM). They
ensure that the building is completed on time and minimize overruns or errors. Traditionally, BIM has been used as a design
tool in architecture, engineering, and construction. (AEC). Expertise in building and infrastructure planning and construction.
But beyond BIM, there is more to consider. The construction process integrates the entire life cycle of the building to manage
construction work, teamwork and overall productivity. Project management model and engineering model are on a collaborative
platform. Data from different sources can be combined and used to make more informed decisions before and after construction.
This integrated process helps all relevant personnel to fully understand the project so that they can coordinate before this data-
driven process also provides relevant personnel with analysis and business intelligence. You can not only build trust, but also
optimize the entire business process and procedures and operation.

I. INTRODUCTION
A. General
Building information modeling (BIM) is a cycle upheld by different apparatuses, innovations and agreements including the age and
the executives of computerized portrayals of physical and useful attributes of spots. Building information models (BIMs) are PC
documents which can be removed, traded or organized to help dynamic with respect to a constructed resource. BIM programming is
utilized by people, organizations and government offices who plan, plan, develop, work and keep up buildings and different actual
frameworks, like water, deny, power, gas, correspondence utilities, streets, rail lines, scaffolds, ports and passages.
The idea of BIM has existed since the 1970s. The primary programming devices created for modeling buildings arose in the last part
of the 1970s and mid 1980s, and included workstation items, for example, ChuckEastman's Building Description System and
GLIDE, RUCAPS, Sonata, Reflex andGable 4D Series.The early History applications, and the equipment required torun them, were
costly, which restricted boundless reception.
The term 'building model' (in the feeling of BIM as utilized today) was first utilized in quite a while during the 1980s in a 1985
paper by Simon Ruffle at last distributed in 1986, and later in a 1986 paper by Robert Aish then at GMW Computers Ltd, engineer
of RUCAPS programming - alluding to the product's utilization at London's Heathrow Airport. The term 'Building Information
Model' first showed up in a 1992 paper by G.A. van Nederveen and F.P. Tolman.
In any case, the terms 'Building Information Modeling'did not become prevalently utilized until somewhere in the range of 10 years
after the fact. In 2002, Autodesk delivered a white paper named "Building Information Modeling" and other programming
vendorsalso began to state their association in the field. By facilitating commitments from Autodesk, Bentley Systems and
Graphisoft, in addition to other industry spectators in 2003 Jerry Laiserin advocated and normalize the term as a typical name for the
advanced portrayal of the building interaction. Working with trade and interoperability of information in advanced configuration
had recently been offered under contrasting wording by Graphisoft as "Virtual Building", Bentley Systems as "Incorporated Project
Models", and via Autodesk or Vectorworks as "Building Information Modeling".
These applications contrast from design drafting instruments like AutoCAD by permitting the expansion of additional information
(time, cost, producers' subtleties, maintainability, and support information, and so on) to the building model.

B. Meaning of project title “analysis of bim”

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is an advanced portrayal of physical and practical attributes of an office. A BIM is a common
information asset for information about an office shaping a dependable reason for choices during its life-cycle; characterized as
existing from soonest origination to destruction.
Building Information Modeling (BIM) can be characterized as a dependable, computerized, three dimensional, virtual portrayal of
the task to be worked for use in plan dynamic, development booking and arranging, quotes and upkeep of development projects. The

BIM Handbook (2008) characterized BIM as a PC helped modeling innovation to deal with the information of a development
project zeroing in on creation, correspondence and investigation of building information models.
"A BIM is a computerized portrayal of physical and utilitarian qualities of an office. As such it fills in as a common information
asset for information about an office shaping a dependable reason for choices during its lifecycle from commencement ahead."
The Architectural, Engineering and Construction (AEC) area across the globe is gradually gazing to take an action from 2D and 3D
CAD to BIM-based practice. Albeit the pace of take-up fluctuates across nations, areas and development firms, a vertical pattern has
gotten clear. It is currently progressively attractive that the remainder of the area, especially development firms comprehend the
business prospects offered by BIM. This will empower industry bodies and development firms to recognize the chances and
challenges, and set them up for changes in the AEC area set off by BIM. Yet, what is BIM? Without an essential establishing in the
innovations, wordings and in particular, the manners by which it tends to be utilized, it isn't workable for a business to comprehend
the advantages to be acquired from BIM reception.

C. Objectives Of The Project

1) To study existing scenario of BIM.
2) Analysis of G+2 Building in AUTO CAD.
3) Analysis of G+2 Building in REVIT.
4) Identify the Scheduling of existing Building.
5) Identify the Estimation of existing Building.
6) Identify Sustainability of existing Building.
7) Identify BIM Maintenance of existing Building.

D. Study Of Bim
Information systems with ever-growing and increasingly complex functionality are being actively introduced into the operation
services. In the process of development, the information technology finds new ways to improve efficiency of economic activities for
enterprises. However, the use of automated operation control systems in the absence of representation of the construction object as a
single system leads to an increase in labor costs and resource losses. There are in efficiently used operation facilities of the
maintenance services that have to be solved, including energy efficiency. Many experts of operation do not have enough skills to
interact with information model. There is a need to expand the application of BIM beyond construction and design, to learn to use
the information obtained at these stages. Automated data collection of BIM can solve such problems with the help of BIM scenario
or BIM-use. Each set of works with information about the stage of the life cycle of the project and part of project in international
practice is called BIM scenarios. In general, the use of BIM scenarios and information modeling(IM) shows a composite, yet little-
researched activity that can provide the necessary effect in maintenance, operation, document management, checking the energy
efficiency of the building. BIM technology is gaining successful experience in implementing various tasks along the life cycle. The
interoperability of design and construction information modeling technologies with building management systems in general is
extremely important and still poorly researched. This study can serve as a source for the requirements model, to encourage the
promotion of data and information transfer between BIM and FM, to induce the establishment of a process of integration of BIM in
FM, providing a clear conception of the relationship between the parties involved.

E. What Is Auto Cad

AutoCAD is a commercial computer-aided design (CAD) and drafting software application. Developed and marketed by Autodesk,
AutoCAD was first released in December 1982 as a desktop app running on microcomputers with internal graphics controllers.
Before AutoCAD was introduced, most commercial CAD programs ran on mainframe computers or minicomputers, with each CAD
operator (user) working at a separate graphics terminal. AutoCAD is used in industry, by architects, project managers, engineers,
graphic designers, city planners and other professionals.
AutoCAD is known as Computer Aided Design. It is used for creating blueprints for multi-storey building, stadiums,bridges, etc.
AutoCADis 2-dimensionaland 3-dimensionalcomputer aided drafting software application. The existing designs can be modified
easily and can save more time. It can be more accurate than hand drawing models.

F. 3D BIM
Revit is a used throughout the 3D modelling process and it is a full-featured building information modeling platform. “Building
Elements” like walls, roofs, windows, and floors to create 3D models are used in the Autodesk Revit software. Conceptual massing
capabilities is also an feature available in Revit which uses basic shapes to model building form and orientation earlier in the design
process. Revit also has tools for MEP design and structural design apart from the Architectural modelling. It is the modelling end of
the Energy simulationworkflow. Hence, it is very popular in the AEC industry for design purposes.
BIM is a shared knowledge resource for information on a facility forming a reliable basis for decisions during its lifecycle. The role
of BIM is to gather and link data relating to the design, construction, and operation of a building to produce a comprehensive 3D
model.

G. 4D BIM
4D BIM adds an extra dimension of information to a project information model in the form of scheduling data. This data is added to
components which will build in detail as the project progresses. This information can be used to obtain accurate programme
information and visualisations showing how your project will develop sequentially.
Time-related information for a particular element might include information on lead time, how long it takes to install/construct, the
time needed to become operational/harden/cure, the sequence in which components should be installed, and dependencies on other
areas of the project.
With time information federated in the shared information model planners should be able to develop an accurate project programme.
With the data linked to the graphical representation of components/systems it becomes easy to understand and query project
information and it is also possible to show how construction will develop, sequentially, over time showing how a structure will
visually appear at each stage.
Primavera is used for making project management smooth. It is helpful in civil engineering for creating strategies, controlled the
delay of project and determines the optimum use of resources. Primavera is used to complete the project within specified time and
cost. It is the application of skills, tools and techniques to project activities in order to fulfill the demand of the owner. Primavera
program is used to scheduling, controlling and estimating all types of projects. P6 EPPM is a completely online interface with the
goal that venture group can get to the venture data at anyplace and whenever. P6 EPPM can give arranging, planning, cost and asset
administration programming that empowers association to settle on educated choices and enhance their capacity to convey projects
and tasks on time and on spending plan.

H. 5D BIM
Drawing on the components of the information model being able to extract accurate cost information is what's at the heart of 5D
BIM. Considerations might include capital costs (the costs of purchasing and installing a component), its associated running costs
and the cost of renewal/replacement down the line. These calculations can be made on the basis of the data and associated
information linked to particular components within the graphical model. This information allows cost managers to easily
extrapolate the quantities of a given component on a project, applying rates to those quantities, thereby reaching an overall cost for
the development. The benefits of a costing approach linked to a model include the ability to easily see costs in 3D form, get
notifications when changes are made, and the automatic counting of components/systems attached to a project. However, it's not just
cost managers who stand to benefit from considering cost as part of your BIM process. Assuming the presence of 4D programme
data and a clear understanding of the value of a contract, you can easily track predicted and actual spend over the course of a
project. This allows for regular cost reporting and budgeting to ensure efficiencies are realised and the project itself stays within
budget tolerances.

I. 6D BIM
The construction industry has traditionally been focussed on the upfront capital costs of construction. Shifting this focus to better
understand the whole-life cost of assets, where most money is proportionately spent, should make for better decisions upfront in
terms of both cost and sustainability. This is where 6D BIM comes in.Sometimes referred to as integrated BIM or iBIM, 6D BIM
involves the inclusion of information to support facilities management and operation to drive better business outcomes. This data
might include information on the manufacturer of a component, its installation date, required maintenance and details of how the
item should be configured and operated for optimal performance, energy performance, along with lifespan and decommissioning
data. Adding this kind of detail to your information model allows decisions to be made during the design process - a boiler with a
lifespan of 5 years could be substituted with one expected to last 10, for example, if it makes economic or operational sense to do so.
In effect, designers can explore a whole range of permutations across the lifecycle of a built assets and quickly get an understanding
of impacts including costs. However, it is at handover, that this kind of information really adds value as it is passed on to the end-
user.

J. 7D BIM
BIM (seventh-dimensional building information modelling) is used by managers in the operation and maintenance of the facility
throughout its life cycle. Integrating BIM with 7D simulation models optimizes asset management from design to demolition.
Integrating BIM with 7D simulation models optimizes asset management from design to demolition.

E. 6D BIM – Sustainability
6D building information modeling helps to analyze the energy consumption of a building and come out with energy estimates at
initial design stages. Accounting for various life stages of a structure, 6D BIM ensures accurate prediction of energy consumption
requirements.
6D = 3D + TIME SCHEDULE + COST + SUSTAINABILITY
A sustainable building is a building that can maintain or improve:
 The quality of life and harmonize within the local climate, tradition, culture.
 The environment in the region.
 Conserve energy, resources and recycling materials.
 Reduce the amount hazardous substances to which human and other organisms are (or may be) exposed.
 The local and global ecosystem throughout the entire building life-cycle.

1) Definitions of Sustainable Building: A sustainable building, is an outcome of a design philosophy which focuses on increasing the
efficiency of resource use energy, water, and materials while reducing building impacts on human health and the environment
during the building's lifecycle, through better siting, design, construction, operation, maintenance, and removal. Though green
building is interpreted in many different ways, a common view is that they should be designed and operated to reduce the overall
impact of the built environment on human health and the natural environment by
a) Efficiently using energy, water, and other resources.
b) Protecting occupant health and improving employee productivity.
c) Reducing waste, pollution and environmental degradation.
 A building designed to be ecologically correct by using resources efficiently, using internal recycling, renewable energy sources,
recyclable or biodegradable construction materials, and blending in with the local environment, particularly in out of town
locations. The aims are to reduce to a minimum the environmental impact, and to take human health factors into consideration.
 A comprehensive process of design and construction that employs techniques to minimize adverse environmental impacts and
reduce the energy consumption of a building, while contributing to the health and productivity of its occupants.
 A movement in architectural and building circles aimed at creating structures that are occupant and environmentally friendly.
Criteria such as sustainability, energy efficiency and healthfulness are considered.
 Sustainable building is the practice of creating healthier and more resource efficient models of construction, renovation,
operation, maintenance, and demolition.
A property designated as holding particular status as “environmentally friendly”. The term “sustainable” is often applied
interchangeably with the green building designation. Sustainable design refers to such characteristics as a lowering of demands on
the environment as a result of certain building characteristics low energy usage, reduced water usage,carbon neutral (i.e. no carbon
dioxide emissions result from property operations either directly, or indirectly).
No generally accepted standard has yet been established defining what specifically is required to attain green building status.
Several factors are defined under the United States Green Building Council’s Leadership In Energy and Environmental Design
(LEED) program which awards ratings (silver, gold, and platinum) under its format, but no clear definition of “Green” has been
established to inform which characteristics must be included in a property to qualify for the definition. Instead there is a relatively
substantial list of possible elements which can contribute to a development receiving “Green” designation.
 Conversion of a prior Brownfields site.
 Building site positioning to take advantage of energy efficiencies.
 Materials selection – Sensitivity to indoor air quality conditions, avoidance of use of volatile, organic compounds.
 Use of renewable energy sources – Solar electric, wind generated electric, geothermal, or solar thermal heating.
 Carbon neutral – the property’s operations will not result in carbon dioxide emissions released into the atmosphere, either
incurred directly by the building, or indirectly by suppliers of energy to the building.
 Energy efficiency – Materials providing isolative qualities in roofing, walls, windows, or energy absorption in extreme
climates; reflective coatings in warm climates.
 Sharing of parking structures with other uses (i.e. as in a mixed-use development).
 Low energy usage – High SEER rated air conditioning, energy efficient lighting, and appliances.
 Building Design – Making use of daylight to illuminate interiors, use of natural ventilation.

 Water Use Reduction – Rainwater retention systems, drought tolerant plantings, low water usage showerheads and toilets.
 Public Transportation Proximity – Public transit-served locations allowing residents to travel by public transportation to and
from their occupation or entertainment venues without need for automobile travel.
 While it is expected that a generally accepted Green definition will evolve, currently green-building status is more frequently
conferred by municipalities under locally defined guidelines.

2) Sustainable Architecture's 5 Foundational Principles: At the foundation of sustainable design are five basic principles as
outlined by the National Building Museum in Washington, D.C. Needless to say that sustainable architecture is about more than
just saving energy and improving insulation. It is about making the best use of our resources without needless waste or
environmental damage.
3) Here are the five foundational principles of sustainable architecture and design
a) Taking Full Advantage of the Sun: Sustainability is most often associated with energy use. This is no coincidence. Our current
energy infrastructure is built on the use of fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas. But these energy sources will not last
forever. We use both active and passive strategies to harness solar energy. For example, we may install photovoltaic panels to
convert sunlight into electricity. That would be an active strategy. In terms of passive strategies, we may orient a new building
to take full advantage of the sun throughout the year. In Revit by using sun path option we can get a idea of how we can take
full advantage sun light. We can also see shadows at different time & position also.

a) Indoor Air Quality Improvement: Unbeknownst to many, indoor air can be even more polluted than outdoor air. Therefore, the
second foundational principle of sustainable design is to improve indoor air quality. We do this through the use of ventilation
and filtering technologies designed to remove as many pollutants and toxins as possible.
b) Responsible Land-Use: Sustainability is as much about protecting the land as it is conserving energy and improving air quality.
A sound strategy for sustainability looks to work with the land in the architectural design rather than against it. Such a strategy
involves a number of things including utilizing less land for construction, leaving more land open for recreational purposes, and
minimizing the environmental impact of any construction project.
c) High-Performance Architectural Design: It goes hand-in-hand with designing high-performance structures that waste as little as
possible. Most homes and commercial buildings compete internally to find the right balance between comfort and conservation.
High-performance architectural design improves the “internal envelope”, as the National Building Museum to describes it, to
maintain comfort with less waste.
d) Use of Natural Resources: Another foundational principle of sustainable architecture is the wise use of natural resources for
building purposes. Our supply of natural resources is finite, so building indiscriminately without regard to how quickly we use
such resources is anything but sustainable. The wise use of natural resources includes timber management, use of recycled
materials, and the development of new synthetics that can be safely used without harming the environment. We believe
sustainability is unquestionably essential to maintaining a bright future for our children and grandchildren. We find great
satisfaction in knowing that we are creating beautiful buildings in a way that is environmentally responsible yet still structurally
and aesthetically sound.

F. 7D BIM –Maintenance
Building repairs and maintenance services mainly includes works undertaken for maintaining proper condition of buildings, its
services and works in ordinary use. The use for which buildings are designed is the main factor in determining the required standard
of maintenance.
Excessive building maintenance should be avoided. At the same time, building maintenance should ensure safety to the occupant or
the public and should comply with the statutory requirements. The need also depends upon intensity of usage.
1) Types of Building Repair and Maintenance Services
The types of building repair and maintenance service works are:
In addition to above, additions and alterations Works in the buildings, Supply & maintenance of furniture & furnishing articles
should also be done.
a) Day to Day Repairs: Day to day repairs include service repairs which arises from time to time in the services of the buildings such
as in plumbing works, water supply, etc. Examples for such repairs are removing chokage of drainage pipes, manholes, restoration
of water supply, replacement of blown fuses, repairs to faulty switches, watering of plants, lawn mowing, hedge cutting, sweeping
of leaf falls etc. The purpose of this maintenance service is to ensure satisfactory continuous functioning of various services in the
buildings.
b) Annual Repairs: This maintenance service is carried out to maintain the aesthetics of buildings and services as well as to preserve
their life, some works like white washing, distempering, painting, cleaning of lines, tanks etc. are carried out periodically. These
works are planned on year to year basis.
c) Special Repairs: Special repairs of building are undertaken to replace the existing parts of buildings and services which get
deteriorated on ageing of buildings. It is necessary to prevent the structure & services from deterioration and restore it back to its
original conditions to the extent possible.
d) Additions and Alterations: The works of additions/alterations are carried out in buildings to suit the special requirements of
occupants for functional efficiency. The facilities in buildings are updated by carrying out such works.
e) Preventive Maintenance: Preventive maintenance is carried out to avoid breakdown of machinery and occurrence of maintenance
problems in buildings and services. Works of preventive maintenance are carried out on the basis of regular inspection survey.
Preventive maintenance includes works to prevent deterioration of building parts (which depends on climatic conditions),
pollution, fungi, the insect attack, subsidence, flooding, intensity of usage, careless usage, seepage etc. Building maintenance is
work undertaken to keep, restore or improve every part of a building, its services to a currently acceptable standard and to sustain
the utility and value of the facility.

2) The Objectives Of Building Maintenance Works Are

a) To preserve machinery, building and services, in good operating condition.
b) To restore it back to its original standards.
c) To improve the facilities depending upon the development that is taking place in the building engineering.
All the buildings deteriorate from the time they are completed. The rate of deterioration depends on a number of factors. Not all the
factors can be controlled by the occupants of the building.

3) During The Design And Construction Stages, The Following Points Shall Be Kept In Mind
a) Right choice of building materials.
b) Selection of suitable construction techniques.
c) Adequate specifications for construction and installation work.
d) Effective supervision throughout construction and rectification of defects prior to final certification.
e) Provision of adequate space for landscaping with proper design.
Depending upon the nature of the work, immediately after the date of completion, building shall be maintained for initial period of 3
to 6 months as there can be teething troubles in any new construction. If these are taken care of, the maintenance pressure will be
reduced.
When there is any inherent defects both in design and construction the maintenance cost rises disproportionately to a higher level
and the anticipated life of building is reduced.
Maintenance of building aims at effective and economic method of keeping the building and services fully utilizable. It involves
numerous skills as influenced by occupancy and the performance level expected of a building.
Planning of works to be carried out to keep the building in a good condition calls for high skills. Feedback from maintenance should
also be a continuous process to improve upon the design and construction stages.

4) Building Maintenance Checklist: Keeping up with building maintenance is a lot of work. Neglect, however, can lead to
expensive repairs, frustrated tenants or decreased business. Don’t let important upkeep tasks get away from you.
a) Year-Round Building Maintenance
Establish a regular service interval for these maintenance tasks:
 Replace burned-out interior and exterior light bulbs
 Clean window glass, tracks and hardware
 Check the batteries in your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors
 Replace the HVAC air filters
 Inspect the property for signs of rodent or pest damage
 Check the building for visible signs of leaks
 Test the fire alarm
 Replace the water filters
 Have the fire alarm and fire suppression system serviced
 Have the fire extinguishers inspected
 Have all OSHA fall prevention devices and equipment inspected
 Ask your tenants if there is anything they want to have addressed
 Inspect door closers, latches, hinges and locks for proper operation

IV. FUTURE SCOPE

The future scope of Building info Modeling (BIM) is powerful and exciting. The scope of BIM services is equally extensive. It’s
simply a matter of time, as BIM becomes necessary for a serious portion of the development projects.
Various BIM processes from planning, analysis, evaluation, and planning maintenance operations have completely changed the
AEC industry. In the digital future, every project must use BIM to plan, design, build and manage buildings in a common
environment. BIM is a technology-driven process. Technology enables BIM coordination and collaboration for various projects
such as healthcare facilities, airports, schools, monuments, etc.

BIM not only enhances technology, it also changes the planning and construction process. In the near future, BIM managers and
support engineers may work directly in the facilities department or construction management department, allowing the owner to
lead the project team. Transfer from RFP to project.
The future of BIM is to use the model at all stages to improve collaboration. Ultimately, the future of BIM is about creating
connections. Often referred to as “Connected BIM”, this means using more end-to-end modeling through cloud technology.

V. CONCLUSION
BIM improves the productivity, value, and quality of infrastructure. Generate information and design architectural models in the
integrated database, and help establish a continuous system in the concept and creation of the model by presenting 3D information.
Using BIM as a tool to update the flow of information during a project is just as important as it was the first time. BIM tools will
evolve in their ability to optimize, but current processes allow a BIM-enabled site manager to complete tasks with relatively good
efficiency.
The BIM project helps the design team develop a detailed plan for its project. These plans describe the goals, processes,
communications, and infrastructure of BIM implementation. By developing and following these plans, the team can change the title
significantly. Successfully implemented BIM. This process requires time and resources, especially if the organization is starting this
level of planning for the first time, but the benefits of developing a detailed plan far outweigh the resources consumed.
