MABY5100 Building Information Modelling - BIM Emneplan

MABY4100 Finite Element Method in Structural Analysis, or a course with an equivalent learning outcome.

New exam spring 2020:

The project assignement (A and B) will be individual, i.e. (not in group of 2-3)

The oral exam is cancelled and the individual project assignment will be the only assessment (exam).

The exam can be appealed.

[Originally

Type of assessment:

1) Individual oral exam, weighted 60 %

2) Project report, prepared by groups of 2-3 students, approx. 20-30 pages, including a presentation - weighted 40 %.

All assessment parts must be awarded a pass grade (E or better) in order for the student to pass the course. Students must be awarded an E or better on their project report to be allowed to take the oral exam. Individual questions about the project report will be also be asked in connection with the presentation of the report. In the event of a resit or rescheduled exam, oral examination may be used instead. If oral exams are used for resit and rescheduled exams, the result cannot be appealed.

Assessment part : 1) and 2) cannot be appealed.

After completing the course, the student is expected to have achieved the following learning outcomes defined in terms of knowledge, skills and general competence:

Knowledge:

The student has:

· advanced knowledge of the use of BIM-based solutions (software and processes) for digital planning, throughout the building's life cycle

· knowledge of the benefits of taking an innovative, interdisciplinary approach to solving work assignments

· in-depth knowledge of the latest developments in digital design and Construction.

Skills:

The student is capable of:

• using software that supports the development and implementation of building solutions
• using methods and standards for interdisciplinary exchange of information between the parties involved in the design of a building and the construction process
• assessing how the digital interaction between design, construction and the production process can be improved.

General competence:

The student is capable of:

· using digital BIM-based solutions in the development and production of innovative solutions in the field

· using scholarly publications as support in problem-solving

· in cooperation with others, contributing to academic research in information systems for building technology and structural engineering.

The teaching will consist of participation in lectures, discussions and independent project assignment work. Exercises and individual knowledge tests (multiple choice) will be added continuously during the first part of the teaching period. Practical use of BIM-based software for the collection of information, calculations and assessments and presentation of solutions is taught by means of brief courses, self-study and exercises.

The students will work in groups of 3-5 on developing solutions and proposing measures for implementation. The work shall be presented as an academic project report. Emphasis is placed on identifying innovative ways of working and cooperating.

None.

Portfolio assessment subject to the following requirements:

1. Individual Revit project (deliver file with BIM model), weighted approx. 30 %

2. 3-5 individual knowledge tests, the average score of the tests combined is weighted a total of approx. 30 %

3. Academic report prepared in groups of 3-5 students, approx. 10-15 pages, weighted approx. 40 %.

Each student's work will be assessed together as a portfolio with one individual grade at the end of the semester, but the three parts that make up the portfolio must be assessed as 'pass' in order for the student to pass the course. The weights are approximate and included here to provide additional information to the students on how their work is assessed. The size of the group will be taken into account when assessing the group report. Students who are absent from individual knowledge tests may be given up to one opportunity to take a new knowledge test. Alternatively, the student may submit one written report if he or she is prevented from attending the knowledge test. Detailed guidelines for the project assignment will be published in Canvas.

The overall assessment can be appealed. If a student fails the portfolio assessment, he/she is given one opportunity to resubmit the portfolio.

All aids are permitted.

A grade scale with grades from A to E for pass (A is the highest grade and E is the lowest) and F for fail is used in connection with the final assessment.

One internal examiner.

External examiners are used regularly.
