Building Information Modeling for Renovation and Refurbishment by Timo Hartmann

Building Information Modeling for Renovation and Refurbishment by Timo Hartmann

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is widely used in new construction but is less commonly applied to renovation activities. Building Information Modeling for Renovation and Refurbishment: A Practical Guide addresses this gap by offering a practical resource centered on well-defined use cases for applying BIM to renovation projects. The authors contributed to the EU Horizon 2020–funded BIM-Speed project, through which they developed over 20 use cases with demonstrative implementations on real-world renovation projects. These use cases were also formalized as standard BuildingSmart International use cases. This book presents a selection of the most important use cases in an accessible format tailored to renovation practitioners. It also outlines requirements for information management and BIM implementation planning to support the seamless integration of these use cases into practice.

Professor Timo Hartmann is a professor in Civil Systems Engineering, TU Berlin, Berlin, Germany. He develops state-of-the-art system visualization and simulation technologies in his research and practical work. Timo received his Ph.D. from Stanford University. He is an assistant specialty editor for the Construction Engineering and Management Journal. Sharon Susan Verghese is a research engineer on the BIM-Speed project. Sharon was responsible for developing BIM (Building Information Modeling) use cases for renovation that this book mainly will be built around. She has previous work experience on building systems design and project execution. Jan-Derrick Braun is a project manager at HOCHTIEF ViCon GmbH, Germany. Within the EU-funded BIM-SPEED project, he played a key role in coordinating work package activities and contributing to the development of BIM-based renovation methodologies, training formats, and demonstration workflows. His work focuses on translating research outcomes into applicable methods for engineering teams and clients. Jessica Steinjan is a Building Information Modeling manager at HOCHTIEF ViCon GmbH, Germany. With a strong background in automated model checking, information requirements, and data modeling, she was one of the main authors of the BIM-SPEED methodologies and contributed to several key deliverables. Her work focuses on transforming research-based insights into practical tools and guidance for renovation projects.
