CBIM: object-level cloud collaboration platform for supporting across-domain asynchronous design
share
The conventional approach of designing BIM projects requires packaging of building information as files to exchange designs. This study develops a series of components to implement a previously established Cloud BIM (CBIM) platform that facilitates fileless cloud collaboration across BIM disciplines. A CBIM connector was developed to synchronize design changes from one discipline client to a CBIM server. The server processes the modifications and propagates relevant reference geometries to affected disciplines to assist their designs. The success of the case study demonstrates a fileless approach for multidisciplinary BIM collaboration and validates the practicality and capabilities of the CBIM paradigm.
