The design process of marina projects is time-consuming due to the scale and complexity of the projects. It also involves an iterative process for studying layout alternatives. There are international and national codes and guidelines that should be considered during design to provide safe navigation and berthing for boats, enable smooth operation, meet market and user expectations, and avoid design mistakes. However, checking the design against codes after each design revision takes considerable amount of time. Therefore, a limited number of alternatives can be explored and code checking is performed only after the design is complete. In construction projects, code compliance checking is mostly performed by designers or local authorities manually. Manual checking process is vulnerable to inconsistent results even when performed by experts. This study aims to facilitate marina design and code checking by utilizing Building Information Modeling (BIM). BIM can be used for visualization, design review, documentation, and maintenance of marine infrastructure projects. However, in the literature and practice, BIM utilization for marina design is in its infancy. Therefore, in this study, the BIM model of a marina project was developed using Autocad Civil 3D and Revit software tools, by creating the required marina objects. The layout alternatives, by placement of finger piers, anchors and boats, were generated automatedly. Moreover, with the help of Dynamo tool, the code checking process was executed semi-automatically. The proposed process has a potential to evaluate more marina layout alternatives in a shorter time than the traditional design review process. Thus, the design can be optimized, and the quality of the projects can be improved. Additionally, it is expected that this study can present the potential of using BIM technologies and concepts in coastal structure projects.

BIM EXECUTION PROCESS OF CONSTRUCTION COMPANIES FOR BUILDING PROJECTS
GERÇEK, Bilge; Tokdemir, Onur Behzat; İLAL, MUSTAFA EMRE; GÜNAYDIN, HÜSNÜ MURAT (2017-07-29)
Building Information Modeling (BIM) has been an emerging concept in architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry with a vast amount of promising benefits to construction projects. Implementation of BIM, however, requires comprehensive research and strategic planning. Industry-wide and organizational implementation guidelines and standards have been published around the world either to encourage organizations to adopt BIM or to present the minimum requirements to be followed where BIM implementa...
Modeling highway projects: The need for Highway Information Modeling (HIM) guideline and information exchange
Ertaymaz, Uğurcan; Atasoy Özcan, Güzide (2019-06-01)
Building Information Modeling (BIM) is one of the latest trends in the construction sector and utilized for modeling, reviewing and analyzing building projects for the last two decades with benefits including visualization, planning, and estimation. BIM provides a well-organized and streamlined approach for building projects; however, its application for highway projects has been scarce. Progressing requirements, increasing number of stakeholders, integrated design solutions, expanding model uses and rapid ...
Range estimation of construction costs using neural networks with bootstrap prediction intervals
Sönmez, Rifat (2011-08-01)
Modeling of construction costs is a challenging task, as it requires representation of complex relations between factors and project costs with sparse and noisy data. In this paper, neural networks with bootstrap prediction intervals are presented for range estimation of construction costs. In the integrated approach, neural networks are used for modeling the mapping function between the factors and costs, and bootstrap method is used to quantify the level of variability included in the estimated costs. The...
Conceptual quantity modeling of single span highway bridges by regression, neural networks and case based reasoning methods
Aşıkgil, Mert; Sönmez, Rifat; Department of Civil Engineering (2012)
Conceptual estimation techniques play an important role in determining the approximate costs of construction projects especially during feasibility stages. Moreover, pre-design estimates are also crucial for the contractors. With the help of the conceptual predictions companies can determine approximate project costs and can gain several advantages before tendering phase. The main objective of this thesis is to focus on modeling of quantities instead of costs and to develop quantity take-off models for pre-...
Analysis of modeling effort and impact of different levels of detail in building information models
Leite, Fernanda; Akçamete Güngör, Aslı; Akinci, Burcu; Atasoy Özcan, Güzide; Kiziltas, Semiha (2011-08-01)
The main objectives of this paper are to evaluate the modeling effort associated with generating building information modeling (BIM) at different levels of detail (LoD) and the impact of LoD in a project in supporting mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) design coordination. Results show an increase in total modeling time ranging from doubling the modeling effort to eleven folding it, when going from one LoD to another. When comparing modeling time per object, rates ranged from 0.2 (decreased modeling ...
