Tiivistelmä
The main objective of this thesis was to explore the utilization and benefits of BIM with a focus on the structural modelling process and clash detection.Structural BIM tools Tekla Structures (2016) and Solibri Model Checker v9.7 were used for developing a structural model and clash detection, respectively, of an office building.
The purpose was to find various underlying benefits of BIM in generating a structural model. Systematic use of different structural tools for the BIM application which focused on modelling and documentation phases were emphasized. BIM was studied from various perspectives. To test the various tools, an office building was modelled, and an IFC (Industry Foundation Class) file made of it for Tekla Structures. For clash checking, Solibri model checker was used.
A step by step guideline for modelling an office building and checking clashes was presented. This thesis can be used for educational purposes and for new Tekla Structures
users as a guideline. In addition, engineers working with the Solibri model checker can use this thesis as a reference document.
