Book excerpt: Smart maintenance of historic buildings involves integration of digital technologies and data analysis methods to help maintain functionalities of these buildings and preserve their heritage values. However, the maintenance of historic buildings is a long-term process. During the process, the digital transformation requires overcoming various challenges, such as stable and scalable storage and computing resources, a consistent format for organizing and representing building data, and a flexible design to integrate data analytics to deliver applications. This licentiate thesis aims to address these challenges by proposing a digitalization framework that integrates Internet of Things (IoT), cloud computing, ontology, and machine learning. IoT devices enable data collection from historic buildings to reveal their latest status. Using a public cloud platform brings stable and scalable resources for storing data, performing analytics, and deploying applications. Ontologies provide a clear and concise way to organize and represent building data, which makes it easier to understand the relationships between different building components and systems. Combined with IoT devices and ontologies, parametric digital twins can be created to evolve with their physical counterparts. Furthermore, with machine learning, digital twins can identify patterns from data and provide decision-makers with insights to achieve smart maintenance. Papers I-III have shown that data can be reliably collected, transmitted, and stored in the cloud. Results of Paper IV indicate that a digital twin that depicts the latest status of a historic building can be created and fed with real-time sensor data. The insights discovered from the digital twin provide facts for improving the indoor climate to achieve both heritage conservation and human comfort. Papers V and VI have shown that deep learning methods exhibit strong capabilities in capturing tendency and uncertainty in building energy consumption. Incorporating future information that determines energy consumption is critical for making multi-horizon predictions. Moreover, changes in the operating mode of a building and activities held in a building bring more uncertainty in energy consumption and deteriorate the performance of point forecasts. Overall, this thesis contributes to the field of preservation of historic buildings by proposing a comprehensive digitalization framework that integrates various advanced digital technologies to provide a holistic approach to achieve smart maintenance of historic buildings.

Download or read book Building Information Modeling written by André Borrmann and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-09-19 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building Information Modeling (BIM) refers to the consistent and continuous use of digital information throughout the entire lifecycle of a built facility, including its design, construction and operation. In order to exploit BIM methods to their full potential, a fundamental grasp of their key principles and applications is essential. Accordingly, this book combines discussions of theoretical foundations with reports from the industry on currently applied best practices. The book’s content is divided into six parts: Part I discusses the technological basics of BIM and addresses computational methods for the geometric and semantic modeling of buildings, as well as methods for process modeling. Next, Part II covers the important aspect of the interoperability of BIM software products and describes in detail the standardized data format Industry Foundation Classes. It presents the different classification systems, discusses the data format CityGML for describing 3D city models and COBie for handing over data to clients, and also provides an overview of BIM programming tools and interfaces. Part III is dedicated to the philosophy, organization and technical implementation of BIM-based collaboration, and discusses the impact on legal issues including construction contracts. In turn, Part IV covers a wide range of BIM use cases in the different lifecycle phases of a built facility, including the use of BIM for design coordination, structural analysis, energy analysis, code compliance checking, quantity take-off, prefabrication, progress monitoring and operation. In Part V, a number of design and construction companies report on the current state of BIM adoption in connection with actual BIM projects, and discuss the approach pursued for the shift toward BIM, including the hurdles taken. Lastly, Part VI summarizes the book’s content and provides an outlook on future developments. The book was written both for professionals using or programming such tools, and for students in Architecture and Construction Engineering programs.
