BIM! Guests from Hong Kong
BIM! Guests from Hong Kong amazed by BPS technologies
On March, 23rd 2016 “Country Park”, the business cluster created by BPS International with the help of BIM technologies, welcomed guests from Hong Kong – engineer experts from the nonprofit Association of Consulting Engineers of Hong Kong (ACEHK). The young specialists had been spending several days in Moscow with the purpose of getting to know the emblematic city objects. The business tour took place within the framework of an experience exchange program supervised by the international Siemens concern.
For the visiting party the main attraction at “Country Park” were the BIM-technologies used by BPS International. By the example of specific projects the representatives of BPS showed the benefits of the information modeling that rise the quality of the whole project development process to a completely new level.
During the excursion mobile applications for the work of operational services were demonstrated, too. In general, they are a brilliant example of how an information model being a precise virtual copy of a building helps to operate the object over its entire life cycle. As all the data of an information model are linked to 3D graphics, data processing becomes much easier. Mobile devices “detect” which point of the building they are brought to. Now let’s direct the pad towards the ceiling of the room and – with a touch of a finger – we can see the engineering systems hidden there. The application for code reading provides exhaustive data regarding the installed equipment: cost, mark, date of purchase, warranty period and replacement terms. If we add maintenance data, reminders will be generated automatically. Thus the real estate owner possesses actual information about the condition of the building in real time and over its entire life cycle.
