1. Overview Middle East Why is BIM used? - Motivation Clear measurable milestones and deliverables One project language (multi cultural) Better project controlling Different level of education and better project understanding for decision makers Overview Use Cases & Org. Case Study 6
Overview Middle East Were is BIM used? Ankara UAE, Saudi Arabia and Qatar are the fastest growing construction markets Nicosia Beirut Damascus Amman Jerusalem Kairo Baghdad Al Kuwayt Teheran Heavy government investments in transportation infrastructure huge housing demand Riyadh Al Manamah Doha Abu Dhabi Masqat Government organizations are mandating BIM Sana a Overview Use Cases & Org. Case Study 7
Overview Middle East Definitions and Standards Mandate BIM utilization and availabe Standards: Mandate is an official order to do BIM on a project specific guideline or specifications Standard is an authorized definition and a level of service quality Overview Use Cases & Org. Case Study 8
No BIM Standards available in the Middle East BUT Figure from Mark Baldwin Building Smart Many organizations are mandating BIM! Overview Use Cases & Org. Case Study 9
1. Overview Middle East Focus on a Holistic Approach BIM is not only new technology Different concepts used (like the 3P approach or The Five Components) BIM starts often in design phase and continuously updated to as-built to support operation Initial focus was on design support and clash detection BIM adoptions is dramatically growing by contractors HOCHTIEF ViCon Overview Use Cases & Org. Case Study 10
2. BIM use cases and organizations General Status Road and Rail projects are currently the most important sector across Middle East Most often based on British and US BIM standards Biggest BIM implementations are Riyadh Airport, Riyadh, Jeddah and Doha Metro, Lusail, Qatar Education City, Midfield Terminal Abu Dhabi, Extension of Dubai Metro, Museum projects in UAE and Qatar, etc. Overview Use Cases & Org.

BIM use cases and organizations Life-cycle approach Concept Conceptual Design Tender & Construction Documents Construction Operation HOCHTIEF ViCon 3D Schematic Model 3D Marketing Model 3D Design Model 3D Quantity Model 3D Fabrication Model 3D Asset Model Master Planning Building Permit Value Engineering GFA Evaluation Rendered Images Fly-Through Animations Public Relations Sales Support Design Review Design Coordination Clash Detection Value Engineering Quantity Surveying Cost Estimation Planning Works preparation Progress & Cost Monitoring Pre-Fabrication Sequencing Contractor Management As-Built Documentation Operation and Maintenance Property Management Overview Use Cases & Org. Case Study 18
2. BIM use cases and organizations Highest demand low hanging fruits BIM Execution Plan to set project standards 3D Design development 3D clash detection as a quality gate for design 4D construction methodology animations Utilization of 5D methods to prove costs CDE according to BS1192 for all BIM data As-Built data according to COBie format HOCHTIEF ViCon Overview Use Cases & Org. Case Study 19
A New Role has been implemented! The BIM Manager The BIM Conductor The BIM Manager is leading the implementation process and manages information in coordination with all stakeholders within the project life-cycle. 20
