Abstract
Abstract. With the promotion of fine degree of the heritage building surveying and mapping, building information modelling technology(BIM) begins to be used in surveying and mapping, renovation, recording and research of heritage building, called historical building information modelling(HBIM). The hierarchical frameworks of parametric component library of BIM, belonging to the same type with the same parameters, has the same internal logic with archaeological typology which is more and more popular in the age identification of ancient buildings. Compared with the common materials, 2D drawings and photos, typology with HBIM has two advantages — (1) comprehensive building information both in collection and representation and (2) uniform and reasonable classification criteria This paper will take the information surveying and mapping of Jiayuguan Fortress Town as an example to introduce the field work method of information surveying and mapping based on HBIM technology and the construction of Revit family library.And then in order to prove the feasibility and advantage of HBIM technology used in typology method, this paper will identify the age of Guanghua gate tower, Rouyuan gate tower, Wenchang pavilion and the theater building of Jiayuguan Fortress Town with HBIM technology and typology method.
Highlights
The age identification of ancient buildings is always the important part of architectural archaeology, architectural history research and architecture history value judgement, and the basic work of further researches
As to HBIM, the full name of which is Historic Building Information Modelling, the concept was first raised by Maurice Murphy and Eugene McGovern from Ireland in 20091, and they raise the level of BIM technology application in architectural heritage to component hierarchy and formulate the protection measures based on it
Revit series software under BIM platform put forward a way of thinking according to structure logic so that typology analysis of the components is carried throughout all the procession of surveying and mapping, which overcomes the very possible disadvantages such as incomprehensive collection in traditional 2D-output oriented surveying and mapping
Summary
The age identification of ancient buildings is always the important part of architectural archaeology, architectural history research and architecture history value judgement, and the basic work of further researches. Archaeological typology method, introduced from palaeontology, was used in the age identification of ancient building very early and it is more and more popular recently In this method, the traditional 2D drawings of surveying and mapping and photos, as the judge reference materials, cannot collect all the architectural information and exhibit all the architectural style, the judge criteria are different and unreasonable. Revit series software under BIM platform put forward a way of thinking according to structure logic so that typology analysis of the components is carried throughout all the procession of surveying and mapping, which overcomes the very possible disadvantages such as incomprehensive collection in traditional 2D-output oriented surveying and mapping This HBIM technology has the same inner logic with archaeological typology
