BIM Documentation
BIM documentation is an essential phase in the integrated design process. It involves the production, management, and sharing of all technical and informational documents that describe a building project according to the Building Information Modeling (BIM) method.
The main BIM documents
In the BIM context, documentation is not merely a project attachment, but represents a structured system for the exchange and control of information. The main BIM documents we draft and manage are:
BIM organizational document
A document drawn up by the contracting authority that defines the organizational framework of the project and involves all parties in the construction process. It represents the initial reference point for effective BIM governance.
Information Specification (IS)
Drawn up by the BIM Manager of the Contracting Authority, in agreement with the RUP, the IR describes in detail the technical specifications and information requirements. It is the basic document for defining the information objectives of the contract and the criteria for verifying the models.
Exchange Information Requirements (EIR)
A strategic document that specifies the client's information requirements, the data required at each design stage, the expected levels of detail, and the methods of model delivery. It guides all information production and exchange activities.
Document management according to UNI 11337
BIM document management is defined by the UNI 11337 standard as a Data Sharing Environment (ACDat). It is a centralized digital platform that allows for the secure and controlled sharing of all information content, with a system of versioning, approvals, and hierarchical access.
The ACDat is a fundamental element in ensuring traceability, transparency, and collaboration between all participants in the project.
