Structuring BIM-related construction data through a standards-based classification system

Abstract: Various software platforms do have their own unique ID system to enable information sharing. OpenBIM has been developed to fill the gap to share the data in between various platforms, but it has its own limitations. To enable unified, platform-neutral, human- and machine-readable information sharing in between any IT-system, modern classification-based data structuring method is developed. The current paper aims to give an overview of the recently developed international classification system and about the issues the teams have tackled with.
