Comment on CDE in practice – what tools to use and when by Luis Santos

Thank you for this compilation Klaudia and Bim Corner. It gives a good overview over the specs and price. We are using BIM360 due to its native integration with Revit, however we think BIM360 is poorly adopted in Norway, so we didnt yet have a collaboration with other disciplines using this solution.

Comment on Explaining Information Requirements in ISO 19650 by Les Morrison

Hi Konrad
Always a pleasure to read your excellent Blogs. Thank you for this one which includes an explanation on High-Level Strategy and Requirements – a part of Assessment and Need that needs greater expansion.
In your example respecting High-Level information requirements/strategy, I understand why you would consider the Client as you have. However, from a legal aspect, perhaps they would be considered the Appointing Party rather than an end-user, even if they were the end-user.

In reply to Les Morrison. Hey Les, thanks for comment. I agree, the third parties are often involved as consultants. And depending who they provide their service to, I would place them in that place of the management tree.

Comment on VDC and Integrated Concurrent Engineering – ICE sessions in practice – part 2 by Brent

Brent — Fri, 14 Apr 2023 04:27:49 +0000

Really nice outline of ICE! My personal philosophy is to agree in principle on the design change before pointing the relevant parties at each other with a target date … then, move on. On larger jobs I’ve itemized these by the immediate areas, with leading issues 1+ weeks out differed to online clash reports prompting for a resolution. If possible, I like to treat the ICE as a last resort. I’m sure you all are a lot better at this in Norge than we are here in NZ though

Comment on What I don’t like about IFC by Joern Rettweiler

Thanks for this article Majcher,

i would add the following question out of my daily experience:

i would ask the question why there is the approach used to create an enity for each object? An complete list of all objects isn‘t possible in my point of view, due to that new apparatuses in future or special apparatuses used in specialized buildings likely in wafer fabrics have to be appended in an new realese of the ifc scheme. In my daily experience the assigned ifc entities are ( in more technical areas such as hvac centrals) mostly wrong assigned in the way that there to globally — such as an flushing valve which holds the entity „Ifcvalve“ instead of the IfcValveFlushing. This may comes from software which canˋt Derivate or translate the native formats into the correct ifc entities. As an example the translation from Autodesk revit categories to ifc entities can be seen as example, similar effects may be seen in other softwares like those from the nemetcheck company.
An (contractor, owner) specific typification is more accurated and consistent and easy exmpandable. Due to that the types follows an scheme not an catalogue there is no list needed (tries and fails) which specifies all entries.

the approach of classification of all ifc enties in the hvac sector.

Konrad – As usual another very useful post – Thank you. Please note that the management tree is never as well structured as practitioners/professionals believe, as there is one more body who could become involved into the upper echelon of ‘Parties’, engaged by, or, on behalf of the Appointing Party = A Third Party = a body who holds the authority to undertake an activity or set of activities on behalf of the Appointing Party in lieu of their inability to proceed due to: inadequate in-house resources/capability/expertise, etc,.

Comment on Export a Tekla Structures model to an IFC file by Cuong Trinh

In reply to FP530.

IFC4 seems too new for full support eg. in Tekla Structures to be able to convert IFC objects again to native objects.
To control the export of rebar in your export (IFC2x3), simply go to the next tab “Advanced” and check/uncheck the “Reinforcing bars” box. Similarly in IFC4 export, you have expandable “Object types” in the bottom of the IFC4 Export dialog box, just expand it and check/uncheck the Reinforcing bars option.
