Texts –Revit Architecture 2010: no experience required Wing, Eric. John Wiley and Sons, 2009. (used for the first half of the course)

Autodesk Navisworks Manage 2011 User Guide (used for the second half of the course)(This is available as a free download from the Autodesk Education Community website).

Other Required Supplies – Each student will need a 4 Gb portable storage device to be brought to each class.

Description - This course shall introduce the basic concepts of building information modeling as a construction approach, and explore its application to construction management. The course will emphasize the use of building information modeling for estimation, scheduling, clash detection, and project communication.

Student Outcomes:

1. Be able to describe the data structure of a building information model (BIM), and the standards that exist for model use in construction management.

2. Be able to develop a BIM based on parametric components for a small commercial project.

3. Be able to use a BIM to develop quantity take-offs or import into other estimating software for a large commercial project.

4. Be able to use a BIM to develop schedules and animate phasing for a large commercial project.

5. Be able to aggregate BIMs to perform clash detection for a large commercial project.

6. Develop an appreciation for the change in project delivery and workflow when using a BIM in the construction management process.

Attendance - Students are expected to attend all scheduled classes and laboratories. If special circumstances such as illness, religious holidays, travel difficulties, family emergencies or active participation in college-sponsored events make absence unavoidable you must see me to make up the work. No student will be allowed to complete graded work after that work has been returned to others in the class.

While in class, please keep cell phones turned off, this includes during tests (no cell phone calculators).

To maintain the proper classroom environment, computers should be used during class strictly for class-related activity.

Academic Honesty – Honesty and integrity are major elements in professional behavior and are expected of each student. Any assignment (including those in electronic media) submitted by a student must be of the student's original authorship. Representation of another's work as the student’s own shall constitute plagiarism. Cheating, in any form, is an unacceptable behavior within all college courses, and the college policy on academic integrity (as outlined in the handbook “Academic Integrity ESF” at ) will be strictly adhered to.

Grading – The course grading will be a combination of grades earned on homework, quizzes, tests, group project work, class presentation, and the final exam.

The final grade will be based on these percentages

Homework 40%

Assignments (Collaboration, QTO, Phasing, Clash detection) 20%

Semester Project 20%

Class participation 10%

Final Exam 10%

Homework – All written work must be word-processed and spell checked. Any calculations may be hand-written neatly with the answer labeled with units and boxed. Any homework not turned in on-time needs to be discussed with me to determine if credit will be given. No late homework will be accepted after the assignment has been graded and returned to the rest of the class.
