Abstract

The objectives for the BIM for Bridges Phase II project are to: 1. Develop additional technical solutions to enable the use of IDM requirements specific to IFC exchanges for multiple ways of using bridge models (or model use cases), continue software vendor engagement efforts, and assist State DOTs with piloting and adoption of future IDS. 2. Establish an Industry Advisory Group to enhance engagement with industry stakeholders, especially contractor and construction-related groups, and to obtain direct input from these stakeholders on the additional technical solutions to be developed under Phase II. 3. Help State DOTs implement the standards developed during TPF-5(372) through pilot projects selected by individual pooled fund members to produce, export, and validate IFC deliverables to support bidding, construction, and fabrication.
