An example for a BIM project by PERI
PERI has already presented current examples of BIM projects at numerous trade fairs. They use a communication and data management system with two applications: “Autodesk BIM 360 Glue“ and “Autodesk BIM 360 Field“. PERI’s own systems are integrated in Autodesk BIM 360 Glue via interfaces. This means that everyone involved in the planning and construction process has access to the same types of information via easily-to-handle user interfaces. Drawings, documents and models from CENTRIO and from the PERI CAD 3D drawing program can be called up this way, too. Additional information, for example on the material at site, is provided by the myPERI customer portal.
New requirements and solutions are communicated quickly and directly via Autodesk BIM 360 Glue, the coordination software for planning. Everyone involved, from the project office to the building suppliers, always receives the latest status of project information. This helps to discover and analyze collisions or capacity issues already at an early stage.
Information from the planning phase is made available for the everyday work at the jobsite through the Autodesk BIM 360 Field coordination software. It offers the possibility to transmit and document tasks, issues, checklists, instructions, photos and reports for the communication between the jobsite and the office.
This means that the site manager can perform routine checks with the help of checklists, can document open items with his tablet device and forward this as an issue to the foreman. The latter will receive the message directly from Autodesk BIM 360 Field and can react immediately. Should he need special information on the building for his work, or technical documents such as the instructions for assembly and use for formwork material that is being used, he can also call up this type of information. After the troubleshooting, he can finish the issues with photos and comments. The site manager will be automatically informed about this and can check the work.
Pre-assembled formwork units are provided with a QR code in order to optimize the delivery process. This makes it possible to register and check the material at the jobsite with the same software directly when it arrives. Additionally, operation schedules can be called up, for example, and positions for the first use can be visualized using the building model.
