How to parameterise BIM objects under commonly used standards?
Canal de Isabel II, SA is the Spanish public company that manages the entire water cycle in the Community of Madrid. With a strong commitment to the environment and the circular economy, it is responsible for all processes that enable proper management of water resources.Beyond questions about the possible future obligation to apply BIM technologies in public administration,
Canal de Isabel II has already begun a BIM implementation process, convinced of the possibilities and advantages that using this methodology in its procedures can offer. One of the objectives of this implementation process is to have a library
of parameterized BIM objects . This object parameterization would provide
Canal de Isabel II with the ability to structure its assets, enabling more efficient management and comprehensive analysis of the data generated throughout their lifecycle in the future.Therefore, from this need arose the idea of parameterizing the properties of the most representative objects present in a typical wastewater pumping station (WPS) under commonly used standards, such as the IFC and eCOB standards. These parameterized objects will be the starting point for the future
BIM object library . The company awarded to carry out
this work was
BIM&CO , in collaboration with the consulting firm
Wise Build . Discover more details about the steps taken to parameterize objects and the results obtained in our use case .
