BIM methods and CDE in professional education for sustainable Design and Production

Abstract Implementing Building Information Modelling (BIM) methods in education to support lecturing, consulting, and decision-making cooperates shaping an environmentally conscious student’s design approach. Within KEA’s bachelor Architectural Technology Construction Management (ATCO), the didactic supports digitalisation for building production. About aspects, instance, 4 th semester, 3D virtual digital models are developed via BIM software with engineered timber load-bearing structural system, parametric formulas embodied CO2 volumes calculation, thermal requirements, envelope design, light transmittance, low energy consumption, adequate acoustic conditions, good indoor climate conditions. These factors can play essential role actual future carbon-neutral buildings. Regarding production, friendly buildings use sustainable materials efficient operational solutions handle data metadata corresponding Common Data Environment (CDE). In this fashion, operation maintenance phases be run appropriately. As a study case, we bring KEA ATCO’s semester mandatory joint assignment based on combination of students’ group individual work. The requires CDE control sustainability parameters related manufacturing site operation.
