RETRACTED: Design and implementation of construction prediction and management platform based on building information modelling and three‐dimensional simulation technology in Industry 4.0

Abstract

Abstract In competitive growth and Industry 4.0, construction prediction and management have a key role. To find a way to provide a simulation method for the damage assessment of buildings and Industry 4.0, building information modelling technology is the most suitable choice. This work presents and analyses the building material from design modelling to model information extraction, virtual construction, and an imported virtual simulation engine. A simulation system has been built to understand the force and material collision detection of buildings, and a three‐dimensional (3D) simulation platform is developed based on the Unity3D engine. A 3D display of building model and simulation data is realized in this work based on the simulation software platform. The results show that the building 3D simulation images constructed by the designed system are high definition, take little time, and have excellent performance. The outcomes are realized in terms of the engineering cost ratio and have energy consumption and efficiency values of 20% and 40%, respectively, which are much better than the traditional method. Efficiency has also improved to 76% from the traditional method using the proposed method, which makes it a robust platform for construction prediction and management in industries. The virtual simulation technology is applied to solve problems of building design and damage assessment. The influence of this technology on the overall design of the building is discussed, followed by future development directions for industrial automation.
