    Description

    Public services englobe many different areas of action that must offer efficient services for citizens without wasting money. Therefore, tasks that involve construction, and their maintenance, might need a special approach, as usually a lot of money is required. We will explain how we changed methods and even cultural patterns to keep buildings in a highly useful condition and reach low or better-planned costs. Our case study documents an existing building that was not built by any governmental institution; as a result, no technical documentation or registers of the construction were found. The challenge of our study is decoding the existing construction and its installations—and how it has been used and damaged over time—by using Architecture, Engineering & Construction Collection tools. As the technical team searches for hidden details on the construction, to collect data on the building, we can improve our work strategy in a collaborative environment and have more-effective results for management decisions.

    Key Learnings

    • Discover new practices, methods, and procedures to work together in collaborative teams and with multidisciplinary areas.
    • Learn how to apply the AEC Collection resources to efficiently address maintenance demands and control public-buildings' data.
    • Get to know the transition from bureaucratic management of public buildings to the BIM universe.
