ABSTRACT

BIM has been widely used in the construction engineering. At present, in the field of excavation engineering, BIM is mainly applied in the scheme presentation and construction simulation. There is little research work on structural analysis model of excavation generated by BIM. For pile-strut bracing structure of excavation, this paper proposes the IFC-based method of generation of structural analysis model from BIM. The model conversion program is developed in this paper. Through an excavation project in Shenzhen, the program application results verify the rationality of the model conversion method and the applicability of the model conversion program. This paper is helpful to the application of BIM in excavation design, and it is of great practical significance to improve the current design method of excavation.
