One of the greatest challenges in construction is how to effectively share information between all stakeholders during the entire lifetime of the building. The amount of data generated by a building asset can be significant, and unsatisfactory management of this data could impede strategic decisions and collaboration between relevant parties.

Acoustic monitoring can allow for different sounds in an environment to be measured and can aid in different stages of building renovation projects. One of the main objectives of BIM-SPEED project is to develop a tool for building indoor acoustic performance assessment. To achieve this, a tool was developed to be based on common standards which aims to support the decision-making process for renovation strategies.

BIM-SPEED Project tests its solutions in 13 real demonstration cases, which cover Europe's climatic geo-clusters and varying levels of BIM experience in different countries. Today we highlight the demonstration site in Gdynia, Poland, a two-family building. The building was constructed in 1961 and requires renovation. The insulation of the building envelope needs to be upgraded.

The BIM-SPEED project has selected two buildings in Victoria-Gasteiz, Northern Spain, as demonstration sites. These were both built in 1958. First demonstration site is a four story residential building with eight flats, a garage and a bar in the ground floor in a U-Shape. The external walls are made from double layer of brick with an air cavity in between.

The 3D models of buildings form the basis of various BIM use cases. If the corresponding structures are existing buildings, the models are usually created on the basis of planning documents. Often, these planning documents are outdated, and subsequent renovation or conversion measures are unfortunately only added to the planning documents in the rarest of cases. It is difficult to ensure that the model corresponds to the existing building.
