Integração BIM na gestão de fluxos e espaços: planejamento dinâmico de canteiros de obra em Fortaleza

Abstract

Construction site layout planning plays a fundamental role in the civil construction sector, enabling critical analysis through the systemic visualization of the spatial arrangement of workstations, resources, and logistical and operational flows, which can be enhanced using the BIM methodology. However, despite the gains associated with three-dimensional modeling and the extraction of quantities from this new system, challenges to its implementation and, consequently, its full functioning and operation are still commonly observed. In this context, this study proposes the analysis and development of a construction site layout through the application of BIM methodology principles and tools for a high-end construction project, as a case study. The main objective is to evaluate and demonstrate the impact of this technological integration in generating efficiency and optimizing space and logistics. Thus, the three dimensional model, developed using Autodesk Revit software, allows for a thorough analysis of the constituent elements of a construction site layout, using parameters loaded with information about materials, properties, and their interaction with other parts of the modeled system. To achieve this, the methodology was based on gathering information and data from the construction site to develop a three-dimensional model, simulating different phases of the construction site throughout the entire project and generating data extraction capable of producing a more assertive and efficient analysis of the site's organization. Thus, the results obtained demonstrated that it became possible not only to accurately quantify the spatial occupation and allocation percentages by function of each environment, but also to quickly identify logistical bottlenecks through indicators, enabling a more efficient analysis of the site's behavior and the proposal of adjustments based on measurable data, with gains in reducing displacements and operational interferences. Therefore, it is concluded that the BIM methodology proved to be a decision support tool, allowing for the optimization of space and logistical flow, as well as ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements for worker safety and comfort
