The goals of this class are to introduce students to underlying technical concepts of Building Information Modelling. It addresses students who want to conduct their own research-oriented design and development including software-prototypes such as scripts, plugins and services in research projects.
The main target audiences are :
- students of architecture for research-oriented M1, M2 and M3 in the architecture MSc track,
- students of Construction & Robotics for Integrated Projects and Graduation Projects
- students of Civil Engineering
- all interested students from other tracks
Previous Knowledge Expected
Understanding and using basic concepts from Building Information Modelling and respective tools is a prerequisite.
Objective (Expected Results of Study and Acquired Competences)
The concepts and technologies include
- Process-modelling for collaboration
- Data Modelling with UML and STEP EXPRESS
- Object-Oriented Design and Programming paradigms
- Data serialization, exchange and interoperability
