➢ Achieving Sustainability through BIM
➢ BIM for Facility Management
THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY
Contribution of the Construction Industry
❖ Social Contribution
• Providing building and infrastructure projects that fulfill community needs
• Constructing sophisticated infrastructure comprising efficient road
networks, superlative telecommunications facilities as well as water and
electricity.
THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY
Economic contribution
• GDP (3%-6% underdeveloped countries &7%-10% developed
countries)
• Job Opportunities
• Encourage other industries to develop and prosper.
THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY
Impact on the Environment
THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY
❖ Energy Use, Global Warming and Climate Change
• 50% of global energy usage mainly used in the production of
materials, the construction process and by occupants or users of the
building or structure throughout its lifetime.
❖ Resource depletion, waste and recycling
• 50% Materials extracted from earth crust
• 50% Waste generated
THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY
❖ Pollution and hazardous substances in the natural and built
environment
• 23% of air pollution
• 50% of climate change gases
• 40% of drinking water pollution
• 50% of landfill wastes
THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY
❖ Planning, land-use and conservation
• Almost all development undertaken by the construction industry
requires planning permission. If not planned, the construction industry
can have a devastating impact on the biodiversity of particular sites.
• Significant impact upon transport movements and place considerable
pressure on the local road network.
Sustainability
• There are more than 200 definition of sustainability.
• This is because different academic fields and disciplines
have their own definitions and approaches.
• sustainability is any development that meets the needs of
the present without compromising the ability of future
generations to meet their own needs’ (World
Commission on Environment and Development, 1987).
Sustainability
Sustainability Aspects:
Sustainability
International Certifications Towards
Achieving Sustainability In Buildings
Sustainability
❖ Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED)
LEED stands for green building leadership. LEED is transforming the
way of how buildings and communities are designed, constructed,
maintained and operated across the globe. LEED certified buildings
save money and resources and have a positive impact on the health of
occupants, while promoting renewable, clean energy.
Sustainability
❖ Building Research Establishment Environmental
Assessment Methodology (BREEAM)
BREEAM is the world's foremost environmental assessment method and
rating system for buildings, with 551.880 buildings with certified
BREEAM assessment ratings and over 2,000,000 registered for
assessment since it was first launched in 1990.
BREEAM sets the standard for best practice in sustainable building
design, construction and operation.
Sustainability
❖ Green Pyramid Rating System
The Green Pyramid rating system was introduced according to the
initiative that was taken by the Housing and Building National Research
Center to establish the Green Building Council in 2009.
The objective of GPRS is to provide green credentials for the assessment
of buildings in Egypt through raising awareness of the necessity of green
buildings according to the Egyptian context and conditions.

ACHIEVING SUSTAINABILITY THROUGH BIM
GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE ON BIM
1. The global construction industry is undergoing a paradigm shift
2. Adoption of BIM is a national strategy in many countries/ economies
3. Long term commitment and investment on BIM by some
governments and regional agencies
4. Countries will loss their competitiveness if they do not catch up now.

ACHIEVING SUSTAINABILITY THROUGH BIM
BIM for Facility Management
What is a “Facility“?
➢ An installation, contrivance, or other things which
facilitates something
➢ A place for doing something
➢ A commercial or institutional building, such as:
hotel, resort, school, office complex, sports arena, or
convention center
BIM for Facility Management
➢ Something designed, built, installed, etc., to serve a
specific function affording a convenience or service:
transportation facilities; educational facilities; a new
research facility

What is Facility Management ( FM)?
➢ Facility management is a profession that contains multiple
disciplines to ensure functionality of the built environment by
integrating people, place, process and technology
➢ Facility management is the practice of coordinating the physical
workplace with the people and the work of the organization
➢ It integrates the principles of business administration,
architecture, and the behavioral and engineering sciences

Facility Management areas
• Effective energy consumption
• Maintenance Systems
• Periodic testing and inspections
• Operational Management
• Space Management
• Security
• Health and Safety

Importance of Facility Management
• Effective facilities management, is vital to the success of
any organization
• At a corporate level, it contributes to the delivery of
strategic and operational objectives
• On a day-to day level, it provides a safe and efficient work
environment

Importance of Facility Management
• Enhance organizations’ identity and image
• Deliver business continuity and workforce protection

BIM for Facility Management
How can BIM Help FM Practice
• Integration of data systems over the life cycle of a facility
• The data needed to support a given phase of the life cycle
needs to be entered just once.
• After that, additional information is added as needed and at the
appropriate level of detail
BIM for Facility Management
Benefits of BIM- FM Integration
• key data of spaces, equipment types, systems, finishes, zones,
etc. can be captured from BIM and does not have to be
reentered into FM system
• Thus helps FM staff understand how to operate and maintain
the building
• Improved workforce efficiency because of the availability of
better information when it is needed
• Reduced utilities cost due to improved maintenance data for
better preventive maintenance planning
BIM for Facility Management
• Unified information base
• Effective support for analyses, particularly for
energy and sustainability
• Location-aware model of equipment, fixtures,
and furnishings
• Support for emergency response and security
management and scenario planning
BIM for Facility Management
➢ Space management:
• BIM incorporates real-life 3D spaces and objects
• Checking supporting better management and communication of
space assignments and change scenarios

➢ Energy and sustainability management:
• BIM is well positioned to support a range of analytics,
from conceptual energy analysis to detailed engineering
• It also can provide a means to track data required for
achieving a certification of sustainability for a building
(LEED)
• It can also support in-operation simulation, to help
analyze the effect of system changes or renovations and
retrofits

➢ Emergency management/security:
• Since BIM provides an accurate 3-D representation of a
building, it can assist in analyzing and planning for
emergency requirements and security measures.
• The technology offers many analytic capabilities that can
provide 3D simulations of areas of concern, and provide
support on range of issues, such as analyzing exit corridors
