GENERALIZATION OF BIM MODEL FOR PURPOSES OF FACILITY MANAGEMENT

Abstract

In some of the applications such as facility management, it is not always convenient to work with the full detail of the BIM model of the building. To fulfil the demands for the generalization of the model, generalization techniques were suggested. The aim of the contribution is to presents the suggested techniques of geometry and descriptive information generalization. The generalization is developed also in the relation to the Level of Development definition. The generalization methods were implemented to the software for facility management which is developed by EuroGV company in recent years. The impact of the generalization on work with the BIM model (loading and browsing) was tested in the developed software on two different computers.
