A mobile application framework of the BIM-based facility management system under the cross-platform structure

摘要

The building information model/modeling(BIM) technology is currently applied in a broad range of applications and research for facility management,while the BIM-based mobile FM is difficult owing to various factors and environments.For example,the mobile applications usually require frequent cross-equipment compatibility.This paper proposes a reasonable BIM-based FM cross-platform framework and develops a mobile application on the basis of an existing BIM-based FM system.The developed mobile application is applied in a case study of a metro station project in Guangzhou to verify its effectiveness in FM practice.It helps maintenance staff in viewing BIMs,accessing related information,and updating maintenance records in a unique platform.The test results demonstrate that the proposed BIM-based cross-platform framework meet the FM application requirements and supports the extension of FM functions.
