BIM for Design Optioneering: An Approach to Future-Proofing Commercial Buildings

Abstract

With the increase in the population and the increasing demands of the people, it has become necessary to plan the building that will fulfil the needs of the people. Future proofing is a concept where one has to make certain changes to amend the needs in the future. In a relation to a building, future proofing is making the building to meet the maximum limit of its whole-life to adapt the unforeseen and the on-going changes. BIM being the most advancing platform for making it easy to plan and design a structure keeping in mind all factors necessary. This research was conducted to take a step in making the commercial building future-proof. For this purpose, the main topics that were taken into considerations were refurbishment in terms of new needs of the people, flexibility which indulges changes to meet the modernization needs and climate adaption. The space efficiency of the building is also taken into account and a building was designed using the Autodesk ReVit tool, a tool from the BIM platform.
