The term Building Information Modeling (BIM) has different meanings:
B.I.M. is a technology for the
exchange information between
several professional
(non only with documents and
papers but also with an
available data format and
between different systems)
- tridimensional model: typically produced using a 3d‐dimensional building modeling software;
- database: include geometry, properties, quantities, spatial and functional relationships of building components;
- procedure: it is the process of generating and managing building data during its life cycle (LCA).
The main goal of BIM is reduce the risk of failure of a project

OBJECTIVE: develop an interoperability procedure for achieve an
Existing Informative Model used as base for the Programming phase
of the Building Process.

FOCUS
Type of different semantic information are subdivided in:
-Visual representation (document and drawings);
-Artificial language and structured representation (IFC / BIM – XML language);
FIELD: building process, acquiring data, topography and survey

The research
THE RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACHIEVED:
Developed procedures to facilitate the design process, especially in the
early design phase.
1)
CAD to BIM to CAD: an interoperable procedure to obtain 2d drawing towards
the dialog with a parametric 3d model;
2)
BIM to 3Ddprinter: it was develop an optimized procedure which takes into
account the level of detail (LOD) of the model;
3)
Pictures to BIM: a simply procedure to obtain a conceptual 3d model from
pictures where conduce solar simulation;
Note 1: Next development could be to realize a procedure for the automatic realization of report
document connected to the spaces or geometry (especially for a tender.
Note 2: It was developed also a procedure for the realization of rendering.
Note 3: Pictures to BIM was published an article on the international conference “EGRAPHIA 2012”.
Note 4: All the procedure were also acquired in the GMP system. They are interested because the
company doesn't use BIM technology, especially in the early design phase.

The research
1) CAD TO BIM TO CAD DESIGN PROCESS
The BIM technology was used to compare several design solution.
The procedure was based for the production of 2d documents drawings and the parametric
environment was use only like a tool to facilitate the decision making process.
The decision making process was based on:
-
Subjective observation (perspective view);
-
Collection of data (solar analysis and shading simulation).

-
Generative/computational design,
-
Augmented/mixed reality applications in design;
-
Emergent design strategies and techniques in architectural and Urban Design;
-

being used on projects over £50m);
-
IFC specialist knowledge;
-
Application on B.I.M. and early design phase;
-
Application on B.I.M. and laser scanner.
Not last:
-
Gain more international experience and improving the languages … 
