DESCRIPTION

BS 8541-5:2015


This standard BS 8541-5:2015 Library objects for architecture, engineering and construction is classified in these ICS categories:
  • 01.100.30 Construction drawings
  • 03.100.50 Production. Production management

This part of BS 8541 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 BS 8541 builds on Part 1 and complements Parts 2 to 4.

NOTE 1 Testing is by compliance with these earlier parts, with additional rules implied by the specific requirements.

BS ISO 16739 IFC and IFCXML are used as example formats with reference to

BS ISO 10303‑21 (STEP physical file) and ISO 10303‑28 (XML representation). COBie examples are included.

NOTE 2 Concepts reflected in the COBie sheet names are capitalized, such as Component and Type. See BS 1192‑4 for definitions.
