This part of BS8541 gives recommendations covering the transmitting of assemblies of construction library objects for use throughout both the “project” and “in-use” life cycle stages. It applies to the provision of generic objects and manufacturers’ specific products. It is intended to ease the communication between parties whether or not they are contractually related.
It also gives recommendations for the application of assemblies in integrated BIM working. It defines the level of information appropriate for specific uses such as:
specification, comparison and selection;
coordination;
take-off; and
asset management.
This part of BS8541 builds on Part1 and complements Parts2 to 4.
NOTE1 Testing is by compliance with these earlier parts, with additional rules implied by the specific requirements.
BSISO16739 IFC and IFCXML are used as example formats with reference to
BSISO10303‑21 (STEP physical file) and ISO10303‑28 (XML representation). COBie examples are included.
NOTE2 Concepts reflected in the COBie sheet names are capitalized, such as Component and Type. See BS1192‑4 for definitions.
