ABSTRACT

Engineering an international airport with multiple disciplines is a complex project which demands good information sharing to support the decision process during the whole life-cycle of the airport. This information will have a variety of formats like visualizations, quantities, drawings, reports or analyses and must be based on a single source to keep the output consistent. NACO (Netherlands Airport Consultants), a company of Royal HaskoningDHV, is a global provider of airport planning, airport design and airport engineering services and uses the latest BIM technology to execute complex projects in time, in budget and with the highest quality. This paper gives an overview how BIM is used in this project and the technical and cultural challenges we had to keep all involved parties on a single source of truth.
