Management and Maintenance of Buildings in BIM Environment: Facility Management of Historic Buildings (HBIM)

Abstract

To ensure the longest and most efficient operation of the building, it is necessary to use the necessary construction equipment correctly and to detect and eliminate all errors and deficiencies in a timely manner. Maintenance of building represents a combination of technical, administrative and managerial activities during the operation of buildings, the priority objective of which is to maintain the required function. Innovative methods and tools supporting the facility management of buildings are increasingly being used in the management and maintenance of buildings. Such innovative technologies also include building information modelling (BIM). BIM provides users with important information and data that help simplify planning, implementation and maintenance of buildings throughout their life cycle. Precisely in the management and maintenance of historical buildings, sufficient data and information are key aspects to eliminate the occurrence of many faults and damage to historical buildings of the monument fund, which is caused by simple neglect of care or inappropriate maintenance. For this purpose, the principles of Heritage Building Information Modelling (HBIM) are increasingly applied in construction practice. As part of the research, will be analysed the current situation in the field of facility management of historic buildings and the current level of knowledge of the term HBIM.
