  1. Graduate Student BIM Research Proposals University of Southern Mississippi School of Construction School of Computing

  2. Students and Projects • Daniel & James – Immersive BIM • Cara – BIM and Construction Management • Corey – Retrieving BIM information on the Battlefield • Lacey – BIM and Code Compliance • Isaiah – BIM and Tele-Engineering • Lewis - 5D BIM Visual Composer

  3. Open Source Immersive BIM Environment • Team • James Ross, Daniel Comeaux • M.S. Computer Science students Sample Projects

  4. Immersive BIM Objective • To give the user a realistic experience in a virtual environment. • Create ability to interact with BIM objects in the environment as well a pull up information about the object being touched. • Pictures – mockups – other examples

  5. Immersive BIM Project Overview

  6. Immersive BIM Milestones 1.) Successfully incorporate a simple model into the virtual reality environment 2.) Interact with the model by opening doors and clicking on the walls for their information 3.) Integrate the VR Goggles into the VR environment and be able to move through it. 4.) Display the information about the exterior and interior walls as a hud. 5.)Fully import a BIM wall into the environment as well as the information about it. 6.) Import an actual BIM into the virtual environment and have ability to examine components of model for information.

  7. Fostering Construction Management Implementation of BIM at Engineering Research Development Centers • Cara Percy • Bs. Architectural Engineering Technology • Current Masters Student, Construction Management • Sample Work Capstone Project Modeling & Animation Modeling & Animation

  8. Fostering Construction Management Implementation of BIM • Curriculum to help ERDC’s roll-out the wider use of BIM • Focusing on the implementation in Construction Management Quality Management Time Management Cost Management Safety Management

  9. Fostering Construction Management Implementation of BIM • Manual • Workshops • At regional meetings • Webpage

  10. Potential Benefits ofImplementation of BIM in Construction Management • Reduce Time • Fewer RFI’s • Field Coordination • Reduce Cost • Increase Return • Productivity Improvement • Improve Quality Control • Improved accuracy • Overall Increased Clarity

  11. Retrieving BIM Information on the Battlefield • Corey Berry • B.S. in Computer Science with Minor in Software Engineering • Sample Project History

  12. Retrieving BIM Information on the Battlefield • Corey Berry • Help soldiers retrieve BIM information “on-the-fly” through Heads Up Displays [HUD] • Use RFID and Soldier’s heading to calculate position in the building • Retrieve information with voice or eye movement commands.

  13. Retrieving BIM Information on the Battlefield When within 30 feet of a building the soldier will receive a signal from the RFID chip on the exterior of the building. The signal will contain an encrypted key which will allow BIM data to be retrieved.

  14. Potential Benefits of Retrieving BIM Information on the Battlefield • Advanced Battlefield knowledge and command • Implementation into Future war-fighter project.

  15. Virtual BIM Code Compliance • Lacey Duckworth • Currently PHD student in Computer Science • Sample Projects

  16. Virtual BIM Code Compliance • Objectives • Tool to compare BIM models against standard code specifications • Lists problems found • Virtual walk-through of BIM models with pop-ups of properties and relevant codes.

  17. Virtual BIM Code Compliance • Approach Import BIM models into VR Object Oriented external compliance engine Create pop-up and compliance list in VR

  18. Potential Benefits of Virtual BIM Code Compliance • Better code compliance in advance of construction • Saved money through fewer errors

  19. BIM Tele-Engineering • Isaiah Williams • Currently Master’s student in Computer Science • Sample Project • Open Source Building Environment for Simulation and Traininghttp://www.icee.usm.edu/osbest/

  20. BIM Tele-Engineering

  21. BIM Tele-Engineering • Objectives • Allow engineers world-wide to include walk-through and annotate virtual reality BIM models in regular teleconferences

  22. BIM Tele-Engineering • Approach Survey and understand current ACE teleconference methodology Add functionality to allow BIM models to be loaded, viewed and changed in teleconference

  23. Potential Benefits of BIM Tele-Engineering • Models built in virtual reality for use in other projects • Less travel • Saving money

  24. 5D BIM Visual Composer • Lewis Jones • Currently PHD student in Computer Science • Sample Projects

  25. 5D BIM Visual Composer • Objective • Tool to use 5D models for promotional and educational videos • Plug-in to import 5D Model Sequences (with underlying data) into Open Source Movie Editor software • Plug-in to provide BIM-specific movie editing capabilities (such as information pop-up and component highlighting) • Case study showing use of the new tool

  26. 5D BIM Visual Composer • Approach • Phase 1 - Plug-in to import 5D Model Sequences (with underlying data) into Open Source Movie Editor software • Phase 2 - Plug-in to provide BIM-specific movie editing capabilities (such as information pop-up and component highlighting) • Phase 3 - Case study demonstrating use of the new tool

  27. Potential Benefits of 5D BIM Visual Composer • Additional educational and promotional benefits from 5D models • Better understanding and wider acceptance of BIM techniques
