\u00a0Coursework Overview \u00a0Context Statement: The inter-related Architectural, Engineering, Construction and Facilities Management (AEC-FM) industries face many challenges around construction project delivery (e.g. poor information \u00a0management practices; low levels of collaboration, productivity, predictability and profitability; lack of trust; \u00a0poor payment practices, etc.). The application of Building Information Modelling (BIM) concepts, tools and \u00a0workflows could potentially address many of these. \u00a0Throughout the Module there are discussions on aspects of contemporary practice around Building \u00a0Information Modelling (BIM). In order to further equip you with topic specific knowledge and \u00a0understanding, around this, and construction project management practice itself, and to help you develop \u00a0your intellectual skills and abilities in the subject, the following coursework task is set. \u00a0It requires the submission of an individual, written case study report whereby you are to self-select a BIMenabled Project Case Study, for the purposes of analysis and reflection around the management, theory \u00a0and practice of BIM. The \u2018unit of analysis\u2019 in this case study report ultimately, remains construction project \u00a0delivery, and how it could be improved through the use of BIM. \u00a0Analysis: This written submission should fully introduce the \u2018case\u2019, provide a project description and \u00a0position it within an Architectural Engineering and Construction (AEC) context. It should also identify key \u00a0project challenges, evaluate any BIM-enabled solutions, and articulate any BIM-related \u2018lessons learned\u2019 \u00a0that can inform and be generalized to future practice. \u00a0Reflection: Through theoretical, and evidence-based perspectives, reflect also upon the key elements of \u00a0BIM-enabled project delivery practice that you perceive have been applied on the selected project case. \u00a0Discuss this by making using of current and salient academic (and relevant professional) literature from \u00a0the subjects knowledge-base. \u00a0Therefore, the project case study acts a \u2018contextual vehicle\u2019 you then use to evidence your independent \u00a0research and learning around Building Information Modelling Management, Theory and Practice. \u00a0Component 1 is worth 100% of the module. It will be submitted and assessed electronically, and it \u00a0addresses all Module Learning Outcomes. \u00a03.3 Coursework Tasks to be Completed by Students \u00a0Select a suitable BIM-enabled case study project that is ripe for analysis. This could be a prominent, \u00a0widely available BIM-enabled case, where useful materials are readily and publicly available, or one that \u00a0the student is currently, or has previously worked on. Such a project should only be one that you have \u00a0normal access to information. If such a project is a \u2018building\u2019 or \u2018live site\u2019, then this should only be one that \u00a0you have the \u2018normal\u2019, and \u2018necessary\u2019 permissions to access externally and\/or internally (i.e. you are not \u00a0to engage in any trespass of any building\/site that you do not have normal permission to enter). Also note \u00a0that you should not ‘cold-contact’ professionals to attempt to arrange access to any project that you do \u00a0not have normal access to. \u00a0If you need a discussion to advise if the proposed BIM-enabled project is suitable for the purposes of \u00a0case study analysis, then arrange to have this discussion with one of the module tutors by teaching week \u00a06. \u00a0MCE | Learning and Teaching Version 2.1 | Page 3 of 4 In addition to the case study analysis, you should throughout the module, be equipping yourself on other \u00a0related aspects of contemporary Construction Project Management practice. To do this and develop your \u00a0topic specific knowledge and understanding, and help you develop your intellectual skills and abilities in \u00a0this subject, you are to engage with the academic and professional literature around the art, science, and \u00a0discipline of Construction Project Management. \u00a0Therefore, in addition to describing the BIM-enabled case study project itself, your coursework \u00a0submission is expected primarily draw upon, and refer to, the body of academic work in this area. \u00a0You should evidence this engagement via appropriate and quality in-text referencing, that is cited \u00a0correctly throughout. It is also reasonable to expect that some elements in your review will also be \u00a0informed by discussions held in the module or from any credible BIM-related websites (for example, \u00a0www.bimacademy.ac.uk, www.thenbs.com, https:\/\/www.cdbb.cam.ac.uk\/) as these are useful in \u00a0highlighting current issues and offering additional supporting information. \u00a0Again, the work is to be properly structured and supported through \u2018academic\u2019 research using appropriate \u00a0and quality references which are cited correctly throughout. A separate, properly formatted references list \u00a0must also be provided in the submission at the end of the document. \u00a03.4 Expected Size of Submission \u00a0\uf0a7 This written work should be formatted using \u2018Arial\u2019 font, of font size \u201811\u2019, with 1.5 line spacing. \u00a0\uf0a7 The upper maximum limit for this work is 4,000 words. This word count includes: \u00a0\uf0a7 Any abstract (if provided). \u00a0\uf0a7 The main body of text. \u00a0\uf0a7 In text citations [e.g. (Smith, 2011)]. \u00a0\uf0a7 Direct quotations from primary or secondary source material. \u00a0\uf0a7 Title & Contents page. \u00a0\uf0a7 Words within tables, figures, and illustrations. \u00a0\uf0a7 Reference list. \u00a0\uf0a7 Bibliography (if also provided). \u00a0\uf0a7 Appendices. \u00a0\uf0a7 Glossary. \u00a0\uf0a7 Footnotes. \u00a0\uf0a7 Figures (diagrams, illustrations, photographs etc.) and tables are welcome to support the text, but \u00a0must be fully incorporated into the submission, integrated and following the text that fully explains \u00a0why they are exhibited. 200 words will be counted for each separate figure\/table used. \u00a0\uf0a7 The work must form a structured and coherent whole. No contents page or superfluous front \u00a0matter is required. Only a basic front sheet for the submission is to be provided, that identifies the \u00a0student number (not name), the total number of words used (excluding references section), and \u00a0the number of figures\/tables used. \u00a0\uf0a7 ‘Footnotes’\/\u2019Endnotes\u2019 will be permitted, as they can offer sufficient value, providing, their use is \u00a0minimal, sufficiently concise, and appropriate – they offer only ‘clarifying’ information, or add \u00a0‘adjacent’ value to the sentences already written. In other words, they are not to be used to ‘hide’ \u00a0words that would otherwise normally be expected to be contained within the main body of the \u00a0text, and their use will be considered in accordance with the University policy regarding word \u00a0limits. \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
