Abstract
Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a process with an increasing diffusion in the construc-tion market that leads to considerable savings in realization times and building management costs. The BIM also allows interchange of data for interoperability between various computer applications for the most varied purposes and uses (management, monitoring, performance cal-culation). Consequently, application of Building Performance Modeling (BPM), that is the use of BIM models for calculating the performance of the building, is becoming an important aspect of building design. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the information contained in BIM da-ta structure that can be used to design or to evaluate, through field measurements, compliance with acoustic classes or, in general, the acoustic performances of a building. Nevertheless, the analysis of IFC (Industrial Foundation Classes) data format, developed by BuildingSMART and associated with BIM as open standard for sharing data, highlights some benefits and some shortcomings for application in building acoustic field. In this work the BIM process for the de-sign and performance evaluation of a building made according to the CLT construction system is shown, pointing out thepotential and the limitations of this method. Finally, field measure-ments were carried out to verify the calculated acoustic performances and to evaluate the relia-bility of these tools for supporting acoustic design of buildings.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
