“…Areas of civil engineering/construction specialisation that captured the interest of the respondents most include structural design, transportation/highway and construction management (Figure 4). These are closely followed by building information modelling (BIM) and management which is becoming the industry standard for project information management (Oti and Abanda, 2017; Tah et al , 2017).…”

PurposeIn line with business goals of customer satisfaction, higher education institutions of learning consider excellent student experience a priority. Teaching and learning are important aspects of satisfaction that are monitored annually by universities using tools such as the National Student Survey (NSS). The NSS results are useful for educational planning and informing consumer choices. This research measured undergraduate student experiences on an interdisciplinary project using the NSS framework. Hinged on diversity, the purpose was to investigate whether full-time (FT), part-time (PT) and degree apprenticeship students with varied work experience enhance their learning studying together on an interdisciplinary project.Design/methodology/approachThis research has measured, using the NSS criteria, student experiences on an interdisciplinary project on a civil engineering programme. It benchmarks the quality of learning and student understanding and perceptions of learning. The method is based upon a literature review and questionnaire survey of students.FindingsResults indicate good amounts of peer influence on learning in a simulated interdisciplinary team setting supported by a mix of diverse work experience in students’ background.Originality/valueSections of the NSS are extended with additional questions to capture the impact that FT, PT and degree apprenticeship study modes, closely associated with students’ background of job experience, have on teaching and learning.

Abstract. Smart Cities are the extensive use of the Internet of Things (IoT) and open data to optimise the flow of energy, people, and data, especially in city infrastructure, management, and services. Nowadays, city or building management has become widespread regarding smart city development. Moreover, Asset Management is becoming increasingly important for cities to have the conditions for continuous development, buildings and urban infrastructures that must be planned more efficiently and sustainably. On the other hand, asset management is no longer appropriate since the appearance properties, textures, and materials attached to city models drastically increase the loading time for visualisation and spatial analysis. Besides, different applications or users demand different Level of Details (LODs); hence, a suitable 3D indoor model is needed. However, the available models representing indoor spaces’ geometric and semantic information are rarely described. Thus, to achieve effective asset management, we proposed organising indoor movable assets of indoor building models using CityGML. This paper aims to model the indoor movable assets based on Level of Detail 4 (LOD4) using CityGML concept. There are several limitations of current indoor movable asset management practice, such as the unavailability of asset visualisation, outdated asset information, and a tedious filing system. Therefore, integrating indoor asset management and the CityGML seems to be a better option to manage the 3D asset management information efficiently. This study uses the 3D building model in level 4 (LOD4) to conceptualise and organise the indoor asset information and visualisation. The final output of this study is indoor asset information in LOD 4. Each of the components can be viewed individually together with its information. For future use, the model can be used to serve various smart city applications such as indoor navigation, design, and planning.

“…The analysis of AEC industry in China recognised added value from the implementation of BIM [24]. Although this adoption can cause major changes in the way a company functions [27][28][29][30], an undeniable long-term benefit should let industry players be brave to take on the challenge.…”

Investigating Building Information Modelling (BIM) Adoption in Indonesia Construction Industry

The development of information technology continues to evolve to respond the increasing demand and challenges in the construction industry. Building Information Modelling (BIM) emerges in recent years as the fresh solution to make the project lifecycle more efficient by encouraging collaborative working of all stakeholders involved in the construction project, i.e. owners, consultants, and contractors. This study aims to investigate BIM adoption and implementation in Indonesia construction industry and explore challenges and opportunities related to the implementation of BIM. A combination of qualitative and quantitative research method has been adopted for this exploratory research. Data was collected through interviews and questionnaires survey with snowball sampling from twenty entities, consisting of 12 contractors, 4 consultants, and 4 owners. The results show that 60% of respondents have already acknowledged and implemented BIM. The examples of BIM software used by the respondents include Revit, Tekla, and SmartPlan®. Benefits of BIM implementation as perceived by most respondents, e.g. design collision detection, clear project simulation, reduced reworks, and efficient use of resources. The adoption of BIM, however, still faces challenges, such as the absence of requirement and demand, and high investment cost. This research provides an initial understanding of current BIM adoption in Indonesia, which can be used as the basis to develop a national strategic framework for BIM adoption in Indonesia construction industry.
