Bentley Institute Press’ New E-book Practical Structural Modelling With AECOsim Building Designer Now Available

Publication Provides Students and Professionals with
Step-by-Step Guide to BIM Advancements and Best Practices

EXTON, Pa. – Bentley Institute Press, publisher of university textbooks and professional reference works for the BIM advancement of the architectural, engineering, and construction (AEC), operations, geospatial, and educational communities, today announced that Practical Structural Modelling With AECOsim Building Designer is now available as an e-book for Kindle devices. The publication provides step-by-step tutorials and interactive exercises to help engineers and designers quickly become productive with BIM workflows and BIM advancement enabled by AECOsim Building Designer, Bentley Systems’ software for the architectural design and multi-discipline engineering of facilities. The book is co-authored by Evolve Consultancy Directors Nigel Davies and Daniel Heselwood, highly qualified AEC professionals who together have more than 40 years of experience developing and delivering BIM courses and training workshops.

Practical Structural Modelling With AECOsim Building Designer is written for all experience levels, from beginners seeking clear explanations of AECOsim Building Designer’s functionality to experts requiring insight into the best methods of managing digital production and BIM advancement on a project. The detailed exercises in the book follow a typical project workflow, approaching each task as it would be handled in a real-world project, with associated exercises based on an actual building. Each chapter is also designed to serve as a stand-alone reference guide for more experienced users.

Said Heselwood, “Our goal with the book is to help engineers become productive with the principles of BIM workflows in a short period of time. The methods, tools, and best practices we discuss are all based on a real-world building project that was designed and built using these same techniques.”

Davies added, “The book reflects our unique approach to teaching, which we call ‘reinforced contextual learning.’ We present the information in context of the real-world challenges that engineers are likely to encounter in their work. We believe this real-world context is critical and better enables the reader to incorporate the information into their personal frame of reference and typical project scenarios.”

Like all of the titles in the Bentley Institute Press portfolio, Practical Structural Modelling With AECOsim Building Designer aims to deliver continuous learning to help both students and practitioners in infrastructure professions increase their technical know-how and improve their workflow efficiencies.

SFPE Foundation Awards Chief Donald J. Burns Memorial Research Grant to University of Michigan

Project uses intelligent sensors to transmit data on fire behavior to Internet data repository for rapid, informed decision-making

The SFPE Foundation is pleased to announce that the 2016 Chief Donald J. Burns Memorial Research Grant has been awarded to the University of Michigan’s Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering for a project called “Computing Infrastructure for a Multi-Criteria Wireless Sensing and Real-Time Visualization Network for Intelligent Firefighting.” The $25,000 grant is named in memory of FDNY Assistant Chief Donald Burns, who died in the collapse of the World Trade Center Towers on September 11, 2001, while setting up his command post to direct the evacuation. Its purpose is to help advance the integration of information modeling as a means of improving infrastructure safety and fire service preparedness.

The grant is awarded through a partnership with Bentley Systems, a global leader dedicated to providing comprehensive software solutions for advancing infrastructure. The 2016 grant will fund research on the use of wireless sensor networks in buildings to transmit critical information to firefighters and incident commanders, in real time, to aid in strategizing firefighting operations and provide early warning of impending danger.

Paul Beata, the Ph.D. student who submitted the grant application, proposes that traditional sensors used for fire detection (e.g., smoke detectors) be replaced by intelligent wireless sensors that monitor fire behavior and transmit information wirelessly to an Internet-accessible data repository. An interface within Bentley’s BIM solution will enable users to visualize and quickly interpret the data using available hardware and data collection protocols. This will facilitate rapid, informed decision-making, dramatically improving safety and making it possible for first responders to more quickly contain and extinguish fires.

“We are thrilled to accept this award dedicated to Chief Donald Burns,” said Dr. Ann Jeffers, an associate professor in the department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Michigan, who – along with Dr. Vineet Kamat, a professor in the same department – will supervise Beata’s research. “Paul’s proposed research complements and builds on the Imperial College ‘Fire Navigator’ project funded by the 2015 Burns Grant. The novelty of the research lies in the use of multiple fire signatures to identify fire events in real time and to digitally represent the information in software. We expect the proposed research to further validate the integration of sensor technologies with BIM strategies and further advance its deployment via industry partners in the fire protection market.”

“I can only imagine Don’s extreme gratitude toward those developing technology that can give first responders crucial information that enables them to quickly determine the optimal way to evacuate occupants of a burning building and fight the fire,” said Lew Reed, Bentley Systems (retired) vice president and Chief Burns’ brother-in-law. “He would surely view this forthcoming innovation as an invaluable addition to the first responders’ tool set – one that will help safeguard the public at large as well as the firefighters who regularly put their lives on the line for the communities they serve.”

“This grant provides an important opportunity to advance the science and technology that protects the firefighters who risk their lives, as Chief Burns did, in order to serve and protect the public,” said April Hammond-Berkol, chair of the SFPE Educational & Scientific Foundation’s Board of Governors. “It marries the principles of fire protection engineering and BIM solutions to develop next-generation tools that can be used by first responders.”

A presentation about the project will be submitted to the 2017 SFPE North America Conference and to the official SFPE journal Fire Technology for possible publication.

Last year’s Chief Donald J. Burns Memorial Research Grant was awarded to Nahom Daniel, an MSc graduate student, and Dr. Guillermo Rein, a senior lecturer, at the Imperial College London. The grant funded the creation of a new firefighting tool, called the Fire Navigator, that forecasts the spread of a fire inside a smart building using sensors and BIM methodologies. Fire Navigator is designed to provide real-time building-specific information, such as the building’s structural framework and current occupancy as well as real-time and forecasted fire intensity and smoke distribution, to firefighters to help inform evacuation prioritization. Although performance results to date are not based on actual sensor data feeds, and thus are still theoretical, the feasibility of the project’s ambition has been confirmed. This new technology of fire forecasting is now ready for proof-of-concept inside a real building and expansion to the protection of other key infrastructure such as tunnels and power plants. Details about the project were recently highlighted in FPE Extra.
