STUDI MASSA BANGUNAN MENGGUNAKAN BUILDING INFORMATION MODELLING (BIM) (STUDI KASUS: OCTAGON VIEW, JL MH THAMRIN, JAKARTA PUSAT)

Abstract

The construction of high rise buildings in Jakarta is becoming more active and busier every day. The increasing need for space in Jakarta as a city center and land for income generation is in fact not in line with the land availability. So land in Jakarta becomes more expensive. To accommodate the large demand on small land, the construction of tall buildings is deemed suitable as a good solution or alternative. However, tall buildings also have a negative impact on the environment and humans. So, it is important for architects or other design experts to understand and explore the factors that can influence the success of a tall building. Building Information Modeling (BIM) is the newest approach that can simplify and speed up the work of experts in analyzing designs in the pre-design process in the form of building mass. BIM's ability to connect models in 2D and 3D is very suitable for the pre-design process of experts, which has been done manually and has wasted a lot of time and money due to erratic changes. Such aspects of lighting, which are important in the design process, can be easily simulated using BIM. However, with BIM, all changes made to the model can be done easily and integrated with other software. This is what makes BIM a versatile way of designing.
