Modeling and scheduling engineering biotechnology building using bim and microsoft project

Abstract

The development of education today is required to reflect specificity in future development achievements, the needs of infrastructure related to Biomass and Bioenergy shall be facilitated well. Related to this goal shall be supported with facilities and infrastructure that is integrated laboratory building. The construction activity of the laboratory that develops massively made complexity of work that needs quick method IT and project management based to monitoring and minimalize mistakes in development process. The performance of integrated project management overall is obtained using Building Information Modeling (BIM) concept. This article is using one of the features from BIM program that is Revit Architecture because it is capable to give 2D work picture output, 3D modelling and the volume of each work. The aim of this article is to model the building using BIM and to arrange scheduling using Ms.Project. Modelling only consider the structure and architecture work. The study case of this research is IsDB Engineering Biotechnology. Validation is done to check the volume of work from the result of modelling. The result of validation obtained is error (%). The result of Revit Architecture modelling that is done to the whole work has volume that corresponds to DEDC volume except to the reinforcement work. This happened because of the bending and hook reinforcement settings are using default setting so that the error is more than 0%. The result of Revit Architecture modelling is used as the guidelines for scheduling using Ms.Project. The length of time needed in building the IsDB Engineering Biotechnology building is 232 days.
