Abstract
This paper presents an analysis of the Building Information Modeling implementation process in architectural and industrial design companies in Belo Horizonte. A field research was conducted interviewing professionals from industrial design and architectural design companies. The analysis was based on companies’ characteristics and tools used. Also, it was evaluated how implementation occurred, resulting benefits, challenges faced and designers perception of the process. A diversified BIM tools use was observed in different specialties on industrial design while on architectural design it was observed hegemony of tools. It was observed that the implementation of BIM, in the studied universe, is more developed in industrial design than in architectural design. Industrial design companies are already in the interoperability implementation stage, which is a higher BIM level than in architectural design companies. Architectural design companies are in the effort of leaving the traditional two-dimensional drawings towards parameterized 3D models. It was noted that industrial designers have a higher value perception regarding to parametric issues than architectural designers. Regarding of major reasons for adopting BIM, the perception of value among industrial designers and architectural designers is similar.The perceptions on the barriers to the adoption of BIM are basically antagonic for industrial and architectural designers. The most common way of software learning occurs through tutorials, forums and collaboration between peers. Among the proposed improvements presented by the interviewees it stands out the collaboration in team work and the commitment from the top management.
Highlights
Segundo Dubois e Gadde (2002) a indústria da construção é um sistema de baixo acoplamento, isto é, suas entidades têm pouca ou nenhuma dependência entre si
Desta forma foram enviados os questionários para 121 profissionais conforme mostra o Quadro 1
Gerenciamento e execução de projetos industriais; Planejamento e controle de custos
Summary
As análises são concernentes ao fluxo da informação, bem como do processo de produção dos projetos e da relação das empresas com o setor de produção. Foram pesquisados: a forma de implantação dos processos BIM e os softwares associados; os principais benefícios da nova tecnologia para o processo de projeto, as barreiras, dificuldades e desafios encontrados pelas empresas. As entrevistas foram gravadas com a anuência dos entrevistados e transcritas para facilitar a análise dos dados, e uma comparação entre as informações obtidas pelos dois meios de pesquisa utilizados. O roteiro aplicado na entrevista identificava: a área de atuação do entrevistado, sua familiaridade com a tecnologia BIM, softwares BIM em utilização pelos mesmos e processo de aprendizagem. Levantou-se a opinião, por meio de pontuação de 0 a 10 dos seguintes aspectos: dificuldades, motivação, mudanças vivenciadas e benefícios percebidos. A análise dos resultados se deu comparativamente entre os dois universos estudados: do projeto na indústria da mineração e do projeto de arquitetura e engenharia na construção civil
