Open BIM Quantities is a program developed to generate the bills of quantities of BIM models defined on the BIMserver.center platform.

"Open BIM Quantities" is integrated into the Open BIM workflow.

Description

 

"Open BIM Quantities" is a tool destined to create bills of quantities based on BIM models that have been defined using the IFC standard.

This application is integrated into the Open BIM workflow via the BIMserver.center platform.

How it works

 

"Open BIM Quantities" is able to read the properties and quantities contained in each one of the IFC entities that make up the digital model of the building.

With this information, specialists can establish the set of measurement rules that they consider appropriate, in order to transform the data contained in the elements of the model into real items for the bill of quantities. This set consists of a series of smart rules that allow the filtering of elements based on their properties, as well as indicating which of these dimensions will be used in the quantities of the items they generate.

In the "Bill of quantities" tab in "Open BIM Quantities", the items previously extracted from the BIM model can be linked to concepts in a cost database. It is possible to import both complete cost databases and individual concepts from cost databases that have been developed according to the FIEBDC-3 (.bc3) standard, such as the CYPE’s cost database Generador de Precios.

In addition, the user can edit the final result of the quantities and bill of quantities, add additional information and generate the necessary documentation for its justification.

The program allows the user to export the quantities and bill of quantities generated to FIEBDC-3 (.bc3) format. In this way, it can be processed by bill of quantities programs like Arquimedes.

"Open BIM Quantities" also makes it possible for users to extract quantities and bill of quantities documentation (without using a bill of quantities program) through various reports that can be exported to HTML, DOCX, PDF, RTF and TXT format (Quantities, Cost breakdown structure, Priced bill of quantities, Detailed priced bill of quantities, BoQ summary).

Open BIM workflow

"Open BIM Quantities" is integrated into the Open BIM workflow via the BIMserver.center platform. The program currently exchanges the following information with the linked BIM project:

  • Imports

    • All 3D models
      "Open BIM Quantities" shows the 3D view of all models that are imported during the connection with or the update of the BIM project.
  • Exports
    "Open BIM Quantities" exports to the Open BIM project a file in IFC format that contains:

    • The quantities and budget generated in FIEBDC-3 (.bc3) format.
    • The reports corresponding to the bill of quantities generated by "Open BIM Quantities" (PDF).
