Agenda  Introduction – What is BIM  Trimble approach to BIM  Trimble Field Link  Setting out with the BIM model  Reporting back to the BIM model  Beyond Trimble Field Link

Building Information Modelling  Increasingly complex designs  More demanding schedules

Contractors must find ways to:  Increase productivity  Reduce or eliminate rework

Building Information Modelling 2D Floor Plans

Building Information Modelling 2D elevations

Building Information Modelling  3D virtual visualisation

Collaboration of Information Spatial Information

Collaboration of Information Spatial Information + structural information

Collaboration of Information Schedule Information

Benefits of BIM 

Drives efficiency  Better collaboration on the design – less RFI’s  Better efficiency of offsite fabrication  Better coordination with GC

BIM A-E-C Workflow

The Surveyor’s Role…

A Computer’s View of a Site

A Surveyor’s view of a site

Having spent thousands of pounds on a BIM Model . . . . The construction starts  The paper plans come out  Leaving the 3D Model in the office

Having spent thousands of pounds on a BIM Model . . . . The construction starts  Setting out from the paper plans  Traditional manual methods

Having spent thousands of pounds on a BIM Model . . . . The construction starts  Scaling dimensions-calculating angles from plans  Turning angles with theodolites and using tapes to measure distances

Keep the integrity of the clean design     

Use the digital data directly from the design Don’t re-introduce clashes Maximize the benefit of offsite fabrication Update the model with true as built positions Give the owner what was built not what was intended

Put the paper plans away !

The Surveyor’s Role today • Trimble Field Link • Modern User Interface • Task based setting out workflow

• User customizable views • Improved field reporting • Integrated 3D model viewer

• Tablet application

The Site Solution

Copy The Model onto The Controller  Export only the element of the BIM model required for setting out  DWG or DXF  2D or 3D

Using Trimble’s Setting Out Solution to take the BIM Model onto site Digital Model

Trimble Tablet & Trimble Field Link

Can be used directly for setting out in the Field by most trades

Using Trimble’s Setting Out Solution to take the BIM Model onto site • •

Automatically collecting as-built data Enabling existing conditions to be measured
