Neural Semantic Parsing of Building Regulations for Compliance Checking
Computerising building regulations to allow reasoning is one of the main challenges in automated compliance checking (ACC) in the built environment. While there has been a long history of translating
Investigation into the Current State of Procurement Practices in New Zealand
New Zealand has a mature infrastructure management sector that prides itself on procurement practice innovation. However, the various infrastructure groups are not all at the same level of development, and
Strategic Case for National Testing Facilities For Non-structural Elements in New Zealand
The purpose of this report is to assess the need for new commercial multi-functional testing facilities in New Zealand for seismic qualification of non-structural elements (NSEs). The major finding was
NLP Approaches to align Construction Classification Systems
Classification systems are an essential part of the construction industry. They are used for managing project information, specifying building products, building information modelling and more. Since there is no common
Classifying Sewer Pipe Deterioration
Sewer pipe deterioration is driven by a finite number of root causes and processes. This work proposes a uniform classification system for deterioration that can be used for different purposes
Continuous Improvement Working Group (CIWG)
As part of a proposed new build at the University of Canterbury (UC), BIP worked closely with the UC’s Facilities Management (UCFM) team, the design team and UC’s appointed BIM
The NZ Pipe Data Portal – Maximising The Value Of Our Three Waters Data
This paper outlines the current state of the NZ Pipe Data Portal being developed as a part of the Quake Centre’s Building Innovation Partnership (BIP) programme. In addition, the paper
Three Waters Asset Data Standards: A New Code of Practice
This paper outlines the current state of asset data standards used for three waters, and describes new activities and tools being developed to bring consistency and optimise data use.
Asset Information Specification (AIS) Tool
Managing information over the whole-of-life of a building is a difficult process. However, this process is essential if we are to plan, design, construct, operate and dispose of a building
