Willmott Dixon Interiors - Guildhall Yard East

The Guildhall Art Gallery houses the art collection of the City of London, England. It occupies a building that was completed in 1999 to replace an earlier building destroyed in The Blitz in 1941. Selected as a Level 2 BIM pilot scheme by the City of London the upper floors of the building were subject to refurbishment and a CAT B office fit out. Interestingly a picture of the original design team hanging in the gallery displayed a computer representing the use of the historically ‘new’ technology AutoCAD on the project.

BIMBox was invited to work with the team at Willmott Dixon Interiors to develop a data rich asset information model and supporting COBie schemas with digital O&M information aligned with PAS1192-2 and delivered through a common data environment.The project called for the interpretation of a comprehensive set of traditional construction drawings and specifications followed by the creation of Architectural, MEP, Interior & FFE models. Models were clash detected and federated to produce the final COBie output.
