Abstract

Project development in the civil construction industry is changing as technologies and methodologies are introduced, such as BIM methodology. Among the phases of a building life cycle, the Operation and Maintenance (O&M) phase requires a set of information that must be gathered throughout the construction process. Usually, this information is recorded on paper, thus it makes it difficult to access and carry out maintenance activities. The BIM methodology facilitates the management sharing and digital storage of information that is generated throughout the phases of the building life cycle. However, the maintenance phase needs only part of this information. Although there are open standards, such as IFC, for data exchange between BIM models and maintenance software, it is still necessary to specify the information according to each element source of maintenance (ESM). Therefore, this work aims to propose a model of a maintenance sheet based on six main maintenance activities: inspection, cleaning, proactivity, correction, replacement, and conditions of use, starting from the division of the building in ESM, to facilitate the extraction of BIM model maintenance data.
