Coordination between participants in the BIM-based renovation of street engineering networks

Abstract

The paper discusses the solution to the problem of communication between the parties interested in the implementation of projects for the renovation of street engineering networks in the context of the construction of “Smart cities in Russia” through the use of BIM technologies, including the program “60+”. The prospects and difficulties arising in the implementation of BIM in the Russian Federation are considered. The term of BIM-based renovation of street engineering networks (BbRSEN) is proposed. An effective digital data environment for conducting BbRSEN is presented, the main participants, the emerging flows of information exchange between them, and the role of the state are identified. A universal step-by-step procedure for the implementation of BbRSEN and the possibility of its subsequent cyclic use throughout the city has been developed. The result of BbRSEN is not only a comprehensive cost-effective replacement of engineering infrastructure, but also the creation of “Smart grids” that become the basis for the future development of a “Smart city” in which all engineering networks are designed as a single complex of urban infrastructure with the calculation of the efficiency of the entire life cycle. The introduction of the attribute in the digital model, which characterizes the wear of the networks, is substantiated for the harmonization of the repair cycles of the road surface and all underground communications under it.
