Industry 4.0 – BIM and Digital Twin for PPP Projects
Professor Jack Cheng, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Council Member of IPPP
Synopsis:
Building information modeling (BIM) technology has been increasingly adopted in the architecture, engineering, construction and operations (AECO) industry all over the world. Several countries and regions have even mandated the application of BIM technology in public projects. BIM is a disruptive digital technology that supports visualization, planning, simulation, collaboration, monitoring, and management of building and civil infrastructure projects across different lifecycle stages. Integrating BIM with Internet of Things (IoT), the digital twin technology further offers opportunities to achieve asset and facility management in a smarter and more responsive manner. Therefore, both BIM and digital twin technologies have much potential for public-private partnership (PPP) projects, in which multi-party collaboration and rigorous project management are necessary over the full lifecycle. This seminar will discuss the adoption of BIM and digital for PPP projects, and cover the following topics in particular:
