AUTOMATED DATA ENRICHMENT

BEXEL Manager simple and fast data enrichment is automated solution for model enrichment with new properties or editing existing ones. Enrichment of model elements with specific data is crucial for efficient and automated execution of further model analyzes such as QTOs, cost management, 4D/5D scheduling and progress monitoring, etc.

Image

BIM MODEL GEOMETRY OPTIMIZATION

Created to work more efficiently with large-scale models, this feature optimizes the geometry of model elements, significantly reducing the physical complexity of the elements while maintaining their original appearance and detail. This ensures significantly increase in model performance and therefore greater efficiency for all participants.

Image

BIM MODEL ELEMENT SPLITTING

Automated process of dividing large model elements (in the entire BIM model according to custom rules to fit project needs) into smaller ones, using the splitting option, effectively prepares the model for schedule sequencing and significantly reduces the time spent organizing manual model adjustments in the authoring tool because it is done directly in BEXEL Manager platform.

Image

CODE CHECKS WITH CONTAINMENT CLASH

The feature of intersecting data obtained from element properties and element position in BIM model, through adding containment clash relation to model elements in BEXEL Manager using API, provides numerous benefits in advanced analysis of the model and its data through automation and visual clarity.

Code Checks Containment

KNOWLEDGE TEMPLATES STANDARDIZATION

The standardization of numerous knowledge templates within the BEXEL Manager solution facilitates daily management of BIM processes because it enables more efficient automation by the use of already adopted rules and data from the knowledge base, and thus reduces the time required to perform daily and very narrowly specialized BIM activities such as creating construction methodologies, connecting model elements to databases, creating smart selections, clash matrix, etc. Standard templates are offered in software, website and also can be user-made or edited, and thus adapted to a specific project needs.

QUANTITY TAKEOFFS. PROPERTY-BASED FORMULAS

Smart QTOs created with use of property-based formulas enable BIM Managers and other project participants to make the best use of data associated with BIM model elements when creating QTOs to get the most out of the BIM environment, reduce time spent, and limit the possibility of errors in calculations. In this way, BIM Managers gain better control over the project.

Image

WORK BREAKDOWN / COST STRUCTURE STANDARDIZATION

The creation of a cost structure directly linked to model elements, with model-based quantity and other data, is almost completely automated, using existing quantity take offs and custom breakdowns, and additionally enabling the incorporation of standard classification formats (UniFormat, MasterFormat, OmniClass, Uniclass, etc.). This is very valuable as BIM management tool as it significantly reduces time, effort and human resources invested, which also saves money.

Image

DEFINE PROJECT ZONING

Project zoning in BEXEL Manager platform is also achieved very easily, through the identification of defined zones through element data - by smart selection sets, CBSs, QTOs, or through manual selection of elements. Also, in the smart scheduling process, through the Zone Editor option specific zones, their relations and references are determined and finetuned for the most efficient and precise construction schedule creation.

Define Project Zoning

SUPPORT LEAN CONSTRUCTION PLANNING

BIM Managers' lean construction planning is enabled by BEXEL solutions through real-time model-based and look-ahead planning, visual 4D/5D construction simulations, early clash detection analysis, planned vs. actual progress tracking, transparent and collaborative planning and Last Planner System. This way BIM Manager ensures continuous project improvement, efficient team collaboration, eliminating excessive costs and maximizing value to the Client.
