Current State Of The Art Historic Building Information Modelling, Conor Dore, Maurice Murphy Jan 2017

Current State Of The Art Historic Building Information Modelling, Conor Dore, Maurice Murphy

Conference papers

In an extensive review of existing literature a number of observations were made in relation to the current approaches for recording and modelling existing buildings and environments: Data collection and pre-processing techniques are becoming increasingly automated to allow for near real-time data capture and fast processing of this data for later modelling applications. Current BIM software is almost completely focused on new buildings and has very limited tools and pre-defined libraries for modelling existing and historic buildings. The development of reusable parametric library objects for existing and historic buildings supports modelling with high levels of detail while decreasing the modelling …


Developing Historic Building Information Modelling Guidelines And Procedures For Architectural Heritage In Ireland, Maurice Murphy, A. Corns, John Cahill, K. Eliashvli, Alain Chenaux, C. Pybus, R. Shaw, G. Devlin, A. Deevy, L. Truong-Hong Jan 2017

Articles

Cultural heritage researchers have recently begun applying Building Information Modelling (BIM) to historic buildings. The model is comprised of intelligent objects with semantic attributes which represent the elements of a building structure and are organised within a 3D virtual environment. Case studies in Ireland are used to test and develop the suitable systems for (a) data capture/digital surveying/processing (b) developing library of architectural components and (c) mapping these architectural components onto the laser scan or digital survey to relate the intelligent virtual representation of a historic structure (HBIM). While BIM platforms have the potential to create a virtual and intelligent …


Armagh Observatory: Historic Building Information Modelling For Virtual Learning In Building Conservation, Maurice Murphy, Alain Chenaux, Garrett Keenaghan, V. Gibson, John Butler, C. Pybusr Jan 2017

Armagh Observatory: Historic Building Information Modelling For Virtual Learning In Building Conservation, Maurice Murphy, Alain Chenaux, Garrett Keenaghan, V. Gibson, John Butler, C. Pybusr

Conference papers

In this paper the recording and design for a Virtual Reality Immersive Model of Armagh Observatory is presented, which will replicate the historic buildings and landscape with distant meridian markers and position of its principal historic instruments within a model of the night sky showing the position of bright stars. The virtual reality model can be used for educational purposes allowing the instruments within the historic building model to be manipulated within 3D space to demonstrate how the position measurements of stars were made in the 18th century. A description is given of current student and researchers activities concerning on-site …
