3 : 2MASTER CYCLE
Semester 8
Architecture Common Courses
S08-CC-3-2: BIM / GIS
Objectives
Today, the technical and regulatory complexity of architectural and urban projects, coupled with the ever-changing nature of data, requires increased use of digital tools. It seems inevitable that we must develop specialized knowledge in these areas and master data flows in order to better collaborate and share information among all project stakeholders.
This Master’s course aims to refine modeling processes based on Building Information Modeling (BIM) as well as the technologies involved: a wide variety of digital tools used to support modeling, simulation, and communication within a shared project.
Students will thus practice developing a project management process and will use collaborative tools centered on digital data.
The levels of development covered will range from the scale of a city block (context) to that of an architectural element (detail).

Content
The course content for this semester is covered in several stages using an iterative approach: time is allocated for the construction of various architectural models, time for assembly, and time for the production of graphic documentation.
The class is divided into groups. Students work in teams and submit their work in the form of digital files. The work is to be distributed among the participants (students) forming a group. One person is appointed as the group leader. This person coordinates and assigns roles.
Learning and Development;
- Concepts of digital surveys and BIM (Building Information Modeling) models
- Knowledge of typologies related to stakeholder groups (collaboration, cooperation, etc.)
- Project management in synchronous and asynchronous modes, both in-person and remotely
- Understanding standards that promote interoperability in a BIM project approach (IFC, BCF)
- Introduction to process maps (definition of roles, associated responsibilities, interactions between stakeholders and tools, etc.),
- Understanding digital environments/platforms that facilitate multi-stakeholder collaboration in a BIM project approach
- Understand standards that promote interoperability in a BIM project approach,
- Introduce modeling and parametric data processing tools
OPTIONAL: Establish a project phasing plan (existing, demolition, project)
