    Precast concrete is one of Industrialized Building System (IBS) types that is mainly used in Malaysia. Even though precast shows promising performance in ongoing project but in building maintenance, precast shows otherwise. This is due to the usage of the conventional method (paper-based report/unsystematic data of maintenance which is Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) and by integrating it with BIM technology will help in enhance maintenance. BIM shows its benefits through maintenance by showing its coordination in design and three-dimensional visualization. This paper help into identifying the requirement of integrating CMMS and BIM technology in precast building maintenance. An interview was conducted to gain the objective of the study. Results showed that there are two requirements to support CMMS and BIM integration in maintenance management which is a complete and organize data and a compilation of a standard requirement that stated by the department (e.g., Fire and Rescue Department of Malaysia, Syarikat Air Selangor and JKR). This resulted in the creation of a crucial aspect of the maintenance management system that uses emerging technology to aid engineers at precast building in improving their present maintenance management practices.

    Autocad and BIM : advanced technology for construction industry
    AutoCAD technology today is considered obsolete and requires advance training to enhance AutoCAD's capabilities in building management. Many contractors and consultants are still not interested in learning this integration technology, especially those involving the revolution of 4.0 such as Building Information Modelling (BIM). Although conventional method like AutoCAD are still in use, they sometimes run into problems in the organisation, namely cost overruns and quality control over the number of building components retained. This book will assist the reader especially civil engineering students in understanding the construction management process of buiding component and AutoCAD as well as BIM technology in the building projects. In addition, this book identifies the importance of AutoCAD and BIM integration technologies such as linking, export and import data.

    BIM Modeling Techniques for IBS Buildings : Practical Guidance for Construction Professionals
    The main problem of Industrialised Building System (IBS) building management is the lack of integration in computerized technology. This is an issue in finding information, especially in obtaining detailed information on the design, nature, or type of construction material. Therefore, the main objective of this book is to focus on knowledge in the use of Revit Architecture and Structure that can integrate the entire process in IBS building management with BIM applications in improving the building design process. This book will assist the reader in understanding the construction management process of building components and BIM technology in the IBS building projects. The initial chapter presents the work process of BIM system components and describes the Level of Development (LOD) and Level of Detail (LOD) adopted throughout the BIM model. Implementation of an architectural component that tends to be applied in the creation of floors, doors, roofs, and ceilings is discussed in the next chapter. It also describes Revit top of footing in general and focuses on levels, footings, columns, slabs (lift), and foundations including the process of creating hollow structural columns components of steel columns, basic wall, slab on grade, thickened slab, and structural area reinforcement. The scopes and components of the Revit Architecture and Structure software are also presented, and concluded by showing the requirements necessary for effective use of model detailed design (LOD 300). In addition, this book identifies the importance of stairs and specific concrete framing technologies such as pan joists.

    Integrating Maintenance Management System in IBS building projects: a qualitative study
    (Qazvin Islamic Azad University, 2023)
    The IBS building plays a significant role in human life by providing safe, reliable, cost-effective services, which are environmental and drive economic growth. Significant decisions are taken at maintenance stage of IBS building projects which need effective tools to avoid rework and save time, cost, and increase work efficiency. Indeed, the continuous upgrading of this sector is needed to respond to technological advances, environmental change, and increased customer demands. Integrating Maintenance Management Systems (MMS) is promising since the scope of MMS usually does not extend beyond the footprint of the “defect”; it does not provide defect diagnosis data. Therefore, integrating MMS provides a complete picture of the project. However, this integration is challenging especially in IBS building projects as they are amongst the most complicated projects and numerous parties are involved in making important decisions. This paper reviews the case study regarding integrating MMS systematically, with the aim of analysing the need for this integration and its benefits. The paper highlights a lack of a clear solution for collaboration in the IBS building project lifecycle and indicates the need for research to focus on this issue as well as the possibility of applying integrated MMS as a potential solution to improve collaboration for better decision among project participants.
