Abstract

Formwork technology has been an integral part of the construction industry since the adoption of concrete as a primary building material in most construction projects. Formwork design and planning has largely been dependent on project specific conditions, traditional formwork design and planning processes typically relies on individual Designer/Planner intuition and opinion. With the implementation of BIM in formwork design and planning we see how traditional processes which are often seen to be tedious are being optimized, leading to even greater advancements in formwork technology. This thesis gives an overview of existing workflows of BIM based formwork design solutions and libraries, from design to quantity take-off, and attempts to incorporate 4D and 5D simulation in the design workflow. Two case studies are presented to show single use case and repetitive use case of concrete formwork. The workflow is incorporated in both case studies, after which recommendations on shortcomings of the workflow are proffered for further research. This workflow promotes collaboration among multiple disciplines/specializations and can help in improving productivity and efficiency in construction projects.

Secondary abstract:	Tehnologija opaževanja je sestavni del gradbene industrije od uvedbe betona kot primarnega gradbenega materiala v večini gradbenih projektov. Njihovo načrtovanje je v veliki meri odvisno od pogojev projekta, tradicionalni postopki načrtovanja opažev in načrtovanja običajno temeljijo na individualni intuiciji in izkušnjah tehnologa. Implementacija BIM pri procesu načrtovanja in planiranju opažev omogoča optimiranje v smislu učinkovitejše uporabe tehnologije. Magistrsko delo daje pregled obstoječih BIM knjižnic opažnih tehnologij in delovnih tokov od zasnove opažne tehnologije do določitve količin opažnih elementov ter njihovo vključitev 4D in 5D simulacijo. Predstavljeni sta dve študiji delovnih tokov za primer enkratne uporabe in primer ponavljajoče se uporabe betonskega opaža. Obe študiji prikazujeta delovni postopek, njegove pomanjkljivosti ter priporočila za nadaljnji razvoj.Predstavljeni potek dela spodbuja sodelovanje med več disciplinami/specializacijami ter doprinese k povečanju produktivnosti in učinkovitosti izvedbe gradbenih projektov.
