Approaches to modelling electrical equipment for rail systems using the BIM tool

摘要

The introduction of the "Timetable for Digital Planning and Construction" by the Federal Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure at the end of 2015 required Deutsche Bahn (DB AG) to adopt and introduce BIM methodology in its projects in order to improve deadline compliance, increase efficiency and enhance quality (BIM -Building Information Modelling). Pursuant to the provisions thereof, DB AG has developed an implementation strategy (BIM methodology) which defines the guidelines for the structural and practical application requirements as well as test procedures for the relevant pilot projects. The introduction and implementation of such a "BIM methodology by DB AG" will have a significant impact on the entire planning, implementation, operation and maintenance process in the future. The following explanations deal specifically with the requirements for the modelling of electrical equipment technology.
