Damage Assessment, Cost Estimating, and Scheduling for Post-Earthquake Building Rehabilitation Using BIM
The Architectural, Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry has long strived to assess the likely post-earthquake condition of structures. Recently, the Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research (PEER) Center has developed an appropriate basis for seismic damage assessment, including cost estimation and scheduling for post-earthquake building rehabilitation. However, without proper visualization, these numbers may fail to communicate the actual operability of the building after an earthquake. The proposed methodology relies on the integration of tools currently available to the AEC industry, such as: Building Information Modeling (BIM), a fourth-generation programming language, a relational database management system and construction management tools within the PEER Center framework. This process is automated through the development of appropriate software and is applied to a one-story reinforced concrete moment-frame (RCMF) building, providing the BIM with data about elements' damage state, 3D damage assessment visualizations, the expected rehabilitation cost and duration for different levels of seismic intensity. Hence, engineers and developers have the unique opportunity to create a holistic picture of any RCMF building's seismic behavior which is comprehensible by non-engineer owners, customers and shareholders.
