Aim of the BIM Centre
 The Australasian Joint BIM Centre focuses on developing
world class research that will improve the performance and
productivity throughout a project’s life-cycle. The Joint
Centre acts as an allied international platform for creating
and sharing knowledge among worldwide community which
will enhance policy development and enable key industry
stakeholders to ameliorate their informed decision-making
throughout a project’s life cycle.

Joint research Project ‘Echo’ proved initial concept and will be taken
forward for further research, along with other new initiatives.
Woodside will consider the EOI from industrial co-sponsors and partners
for Project ‘Echo’ including major operators, contractors, academics, and
technology providers.
Joint
BIM
Centre Tools:
Building Information Modelling (BIM), Augmented
Reality (AR), RFID and mobile technologies, etc.
Purpose:
Examine how productivity may be improved during the
execution of an LNG megaproject.

The Godfather of Project ‘Echo’

The Australasian Joint Research Centre on BIM at Curtin
University is the first and strongest university-based BIM centre in
Australia. It consists of a physical BIM research suite/lab, an
advisory board and large research team.
The BIM Centre also has privileged access to the iVEC and WA’s
supercomputing nerve Centre.

Petroleum precinct planned
20/Aug/2013 by Sam Gibbs, Canning Times
 “the government would invest $30 million in the centre.
The funds would be matched by investment from project
partners, taking total investment to $60 million over three
years.
 Led by Woodside Energy Ltd. with Curtin as the Core
Partner
 One subset is construction productivity (inc. technologies
such as BIM)

Outline
 BIM practical projects in oil and gas, infrastructure, and
building industries
 BIM Integration with advanced technologies
 Productivity and performance measurements of the
adoption of BIM
 Beyond BIM: Future trends and developments

 Quality defect recorded by taking
picture
 Flexible and real-time field data
collection
 Quality defects directly connected to
BIM model
 Convenient information sharing: letting
managers trace quality defects and
safety risk factors real-time in office
 Effective collaboration: every party can
check and address defects according to
their permission
 Support of various handheld devices:
letting customer record problems
anytime, anywhere
 Based on cloud computing

Using BIM for Smarter and Safer Scaffolding
Construction
• What is the problem we are addressing?
Workplace Health and Safety (WHS) Authorities in Australia have found
that 40% of all scaffolding projects do not comply with national safety
and design standards.

• Expected outcomes and how will they contribute to a
solution
(i) a comprehensive understanding of practices related to the
design and construction of temporary scaffolding structures;
(ii) digital modelling tools and processes that aid scaffolding
design and construction to improve the safety, productivity and
profitability of construction projects;
(iii) education and training requirements to facilitate the uptake of
these digital modelling technologies and thus reduce workplace
accidents while maximising social and business benefits for
construction workers and organisations.

• What is the problem we are addressing?
There is an identified industry need for BIM (Building Information
Modelling) guidelines and case studies to developed in the
infrastructure sector – especially in transport infrastructure and
in a complimentary mode to resource and mining
developments in this area.

Developing BIM Guidelines for Infrastructure

• Research done by us to address the previous slide
A comprehensive review on the existing BIM guidelines and
initiatives have been collected and studied which include over
40 BIM guidelines across around 10 countries.
36

• Expected outcomes and how will they contribute to a
solution
With strong input from Western Australia, Queensland, New South
Wales and Victoria, this project will leverage off earlier
successes in commercial building and provide a practical set of
BIM guidelines and case studies to support ongoing industry
productivity improvements.
