Construction Period 2017 The school is situated in the metropolitan area of the Titu city in Dambovita County, Romania. The area measures 5,601 square metres and is situated in a protected area of historical monuments. The old school structure is going to be demolished and replaced with the new one. The school is “ground floor + 1 storey + roof” and includes classrooms, laboratories, a library and a multifunctional facility. The school has eclectic decorations but also modern elements like curtain-walls and wood finishes. The initial model was created in Allplan and exported to IFC. The structural elements were imported into SCIA Engineer and the entire model was divided into several structural elements because the building is located in a seismic area. It is vital in seismic areas to have regular shapes and avoid torsion and this is the reason why each substructure needed to be analysed individually. There was no problem in exporting back several IFC files that resulted from each model and assemble them into Allplan. The export of 3D reinforcement was also helpful to provide the reinforcement cages to the Allplan detailers without the need of traditional reinforcement drafts. Also, SCIA Engineer’s bills of material for concrete, formwork and reinforcement were very helpful to establish a project budget from the beginning. In the end, the BIM workflow ensured an efficient way to control quantities and changes to the project.
