Building Information Modelling
The MRT Putrajaya Line has mandated the use of Building Information Modelling (BIM) workflow throughout the design, construction and operational stages of the project to fully utilise the potential for significant cost savings. MRT Corp has become the first infrastructure developer in Asia to achieve accreditation for its adoption of BIM Level 2.
BIM Level 2 involves the use of 3D models and information that are shared to all project stakeholders through a common database called the Common Data Environment (CDE), as opposed to BIM Level 0 and BIM Level 1 which do not provide a collaborative platform.
The BIM Level 2 workflow optimizes control and accuracy of project data, and improve design collaboration, construction feasibility, and accuracy of as-built information from the concept phase, to design, to construction and finally operation phase of a project.
Awards
The MRT Putrajaya Line has been recognised as the industry leader for advance digital technology implementation in BIM and Geographic Information System (GIS) in this region and as a testament to the use of technology to enhance productivity, efficiency and quality for project delivery.
