2 WHAT IS A CASE STUDY? A Qualitative ti Research Method for collecting information Case studies reveal stories and inside information about organizations, firms, processes, events, projects, etc. These stories should include an in-depth analysis of the situtation i They should also be interesting, innvovative, special, unique 2

3 COMMON CHARACTERISTICS OF CASE STUDIES Telling stories behind a particular result and what happened to bring it about Highlighting hti a project s success, failure and characteristics making it special Bringing attention to a particular challenge or difficulty of a project Describing What happened When To whom With what consequences 3

4 WHEN SHOULD YOU USE A CASE STUDY RESEARCH METHOD? When there is a unique Unlike many other research and interesting story to be told methods, it includes the context and shows a more complete picture of what happened and why Because of its detailed approach it is also used to complement other researh methods 4

5 ADVANTAGES & LIMITATIONS OF A CASE STUDY ADVANTAGES LIMITATIONS Provides more detailed information than other research methods (use open- ended questions) Presents data from multiple resources: Surveys Interviews Literature Review Difficulty of keeping the attention of a reader Considered d less rigorous than other research methods Risk of bias Not generalizable 5

6 PROCESS OF CONDUCTING A CASE STUDY PLANNING Identify stake holders and info sources DEVELOPING INSTRUMENTS Develop survey questions and decide the protocolos to be followed during survey interview COLLECTING DATA Obtain all info sources, arrange the interviews/surveys and inform the stakeholder about the aim and the procedures with the study ANALYZING DATA Review all relevant documents and interview/survey data WRITING THE REPORT 6

7 POTENTIAL INFOMATION RESOURCES Project documents Info obtained from clients Firm s quarterly and annual and partnerships reports Interviews Observation Trade magazines Questionarrie/survey results Monitoring visits Other 7

9 EARLIER MBL607E CASE STUDIES The goal is to understand early implementation of BIM in Turkish firms Conducted as part of a PhD course by graduate students between The firms were selected upon referrals from BIM software distributor companies The firms in Case Studies 1. TAV Holding 2. Dome Mimarlık 3. Enka 4. Arup Turkey URL:

10 BIM CASE STUDY 1. TAV HOLDING One of the top three companies in the airport facility management services in the world. They serve 370,000 flights and 41 million passengers annually. This case study examines their domestic terminal renovation project in Istanbul Atatuk Airport. The project covers 60,000 m2 project area and required a 70 million dollar investment. Istanbul Ataturk Airport

11 BIM CASE STUDY 1. TAV HOLDING The face of airport terminal building was completely modernized. The project received several international awards. The building project was prepared by the architectural division of TAV. The 3D BIM Model of the Terminal It was modelled in a BIM software. Using BIM model they manage to offer initial cost estimates for facility management services. BIM helped the firm for better design documentation, data integration and ease of updating

12 BIM CASE STUDY 1. TAV HOLDING The firm connected the BIM model with its facility management software called TAV Earth. With BIM they were able to coordinate model based on zonings. 3D zone information helped them also help make calculation that was difficult in the past. New check-in island drawings

13 BIM CASE STUDY 2. DOME ARCH. One of the earliest architectural firms in using BIM. It carries out architectural project design and construction quality assurance services. Milpark Diamond of Residence Istanbul (143,000 m2) (160, m2) The firm was involved in a wide variety of large commercial and residential building projects. Deepo Shopping Center (240,000 m2) Elisium Residential (40,000 m2)

14 BIM CASE STUDY 2. DOME ARCH. In utilization of BIM, learning process and work hierarchy resembles those of craftsmanship. The collaboration and corporation in the offices have similarities with labor division at the work site. BIM enabled the firm to offer construction ti quality assurance services. In this mode of work one staff provided d data from the site, the other updated BIM model accordingly. BIM software allowed them to work on the project with less staff. A view from the office

15 BIM CASE STUDY 2. DOME ARCH. After the adoptation of BIM the firm also revised its data sharing, folder and file naming methods. The firm looks for regular partnering firms and asks them to use BIM technology. They begin to think the collaborative environment supported by BIM will also enable them to compete for the works abroad.

16 BIM CASE STUDY 3. ENKA One of the forty biggest contracting companies in the world. Engineering g & construction, energy investments, real estate, trade & manufacturing are the four sectors in which the business activities of ENKA are carried out. They build power plants, highways, business and shopping centers, cultural centers, residential buildings. Some of ENKA s projects

17 BIM CASE STUDY 3. ENKA The firm began to use BIM use a contractual requirement of the Muscat International Airport Project in Oman. ENKA is one of the main contractors for the terminal building project The estimated value of the whole project is 1.8 billion USD. The expansion project for Muscat International Airport

18 BIM CASE STUDY 3. ENKA Architectural project was design elsewhere and sent in DWG format. ENKA is expected to produce a 3D BIM model that incorporates structural and mechanical projects. The firm constituted three project team, each responsible for one aspect of the process. The control o mechanism and staff hierarchy was set for worksharing. A view from the architecture department of ENKA The building was divided into subpartsand a work sequence was established.

19 BIM CASE STUDY 3. ENKA BIM provides the precision needed in construction. The three dimensional coordination between the architectural, structural and mechanical solutions is very vital. The firm does not advocate the single BIM model for all tasks. They believe that 2D CAD drawings are still valid to be used in construction site. A view from the architecture department of ENKA This project had been a unique experience for the firm to reconsider their corporate standards.

20 BIM CASE STUDY 4. ARUP TURKEY Arup is a multidisciplinary organization with many offices all around the world. Arup has two offices in Turkey: Istanbul and Ankara. These offices prepare construction documentations. The need for multidisciplinary collaborations and complexities with projects involved foster the use of BIM technologies Kanyon Shopping Center and Residence Forum Istanbul Shopping Center - 495,000m2 (the larget shopping center in the region)

21 BIM CASE STUDY 4. ARUP TURKEY Worksharing through worksets is a heavily used feature of BIM in the office. It allows team members to work on the same project jointly. Worksets can be organized according to floor plan division, structural elements, and materials. A Worksharing error message Workset organization

22 BIM CASE STUDY 4. ARUP TURKEY Decision making for detailing moved to earlier stages of modeling The architecture department utilizes clash detection operations. Data exchange between other departments is achieved with IFC or DWG The office uses the conceptual mass feature as an aid for modeling complex shapes. The conceptual mass feature of Revit

23 FINAL PROJECT - INTRODUCTION BIM, mimarlık ve bina ilgili mühendislik alanlarında tasarım, projelendirme ve üretim ile ilgili süreçler üzerinde önemli değişiklere yol açmaktadır. Bu proje bu değişimi anlamaya dönük bir çalışmadır. Çalışma çerçevesinde BIM teknolojilerini kullanarak gerçekleştirilen bir mimarlık/ mühendislik projesinin vaka çalışması formatında bir rapor olarak hazırlanarak sunulmasını hedeflemektedir.

24 FINAL PROJECT - GOALS BIM teknolojilerinin bina tasarımı, projelendirmesi ve/veya üretiminde kullanımını anlamak Farklı disiplinlerden bir araya gelen proje katılımcılarını ve bilgi değişim ortamlarını, veri değişim formatlarını ve sürece katılımlarını tespit etmek Bir BIM projesinde ortaya çıkan zorlukları tanımlamak BIM teknolojilerinin sağladığı katkıları belirlemek BIM ile gelen çalışma biçiminin firmaların personel yapısı, görev dağılımı ve çalışma sistemi üzerinde herhangi bir etkisi olup olmadığını anlamak BIM projelerinde tasarım, projelendirme ve/veya uygulamaya dönük farklı ve innovatif kullanım biçimlerini tespit etmek

25 FINAL PROJECT IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS Firma/Proje seçimi: Firma/proje seçimi çalışmanın başarılı ulaşmasını etkileyen önemli faktörlerden biridir.
