Building Information Modeling Assisted Project Delivery for LNG Storage Tanks
This paper describes how a 3D building information models (BIM) assisted in expediting the construction process for LNG storage tanks being constructed on the Gulf Coast. The American Concrete Institute has provided a road map (Information Delivery Manual, IDM) for BIM application in concrete construction, which was used as a guide for delivering this project. Four phases of project delivery employed the BIM; pre-planning, rebar fabrication and delivery, developing pre-tied rebar cages, and collection of as-built information. Pre-planning engaged the full project team, including engineering, construction, rebar fabricators, and formwork suppliers. Extensive use of 4D modeling assisted in the planning effort. Computer numerical control (CNC) information for shop equipment and automated bundling and tagging information was extracted from the BIM by the rebar fabricator. Special details to facilitate the use of pre-tied rebar cages were included in the 3D model and drawings. Laser scans of the as-built structure were compared with the BIM for quality control.
