Compatibility of design through BIM methodology

Abstract

Buildings composed of several projects are generally designed by different professionals. In this way, the risk of interference between them at the time of execution is great. This fact damages the progress of the work, generating rework, increased cost, time and even post-work anomalies. The objective of this article is to analyze the BIM methodology for carrying out project compatibility. The projects were prepared from models created in Autodesk Revit 2021 and an interference check was carried out in Autodesk Navisworks 2021. For the compatibility of projects, an interference detection matrix was used based on "GuBIMclass v.1.2". Several interferences were identified between the different projects. By making projects compatible, it is possible to identify interferences between elements and make changes before the execution phase, which helps to reduce projects that waste time and money, in addition to avoiding possible anomalies. BIM technology is a fundamental training process, fundamental for the implementation and advancement of civil construction, in engineering and civil construction courses.
