It is essential that the BIM model considers facility management tasks from the moment of design, taking into account construction. This avoids problems related to data transmission between teams and the occurrence of gaps and inaccuracies. In addition, this avoids problems relating to repairs in the future or also if it is necessary to adapt any point of the constructed building to a new regulation.

What scenarios will we experience in the coming years? The digital twins of cities make it possible to experience all kinds of possible or probable scenarios in the coming decades within cities. For example, earthquakes or storms resulting in floods. This allows a large amount of data to be generated without this situation occurring in order to assess and develop much more effective prevention plans.

Facility management can improve the office working experience and worker productivity. Spaces are analysed, ways of working are understood and a working environment is created that perfectly combines collaborative and independent working. In this creation of more productive offices, issues such as the amount of natural and artificial light or acoustic solutions to control noise levels according to the type of space are taken into account, and soundproof areas can even be created if necessary.

Can a building function the way a plant does? Sprout, flower and wither. This is the aim of a new type of architecture that wants to construct buildings with 3D printed living materials that, once they wither, give rise to new types of materials. Utopia or reality? https://bit.ly/3RCEHDd

We can improve building safety on issues such as fire prevention by using BIM and developing digital twins. In the design phase we can choose the most efficient materials and create designs that take into account efficient location plans. In addition to this, we can improve the installation of passive protection systems and record images of the installations. We will then develop reports that can be reviewed by technical and inspection teams to ensure the safety of the building or the need for corrective measures. All hidden elements are visually recorded in case in the future there are repairs or modifications to the building that need to take into account these security systems.

Digital twins function as databases that allow preserving information about all the components of a project, beyond the installation phase. A traceability of the object and its attributes is created. For example, specifications, tests, installation, maintenance, security data or historical credentials from the time of its creation to the time of consultation. This is useful when developing renovations, but also on-site checks of any element in real time.

This Saturday we want to share a curious story about a type of construction whose evolution has varied very little over the years: sports stadiums. China is developing a new sports stadium to be ready in 2023 with which it intends to mark how these constructions will be in the future. What's different about it? https://bit.ly/3Dau0Ub
