Abstract
Building information modeling (BIM) in the AECO industry is a fact. Users have overcome the initial learning curve and perceive a new potential for using BIM, such as rule checking and automatic design validation, which it is possible through dissemination and use of Industry Foundation Classes (IFC). This paper assesses the main properties that must be inserted in BIM models of airport design projects so that they can be evaluated using code checking. In this sense, the properties of the information standards will be analyzed and which IFC entities should be linked to those standards. The method is based on design science research. This consists of two macro-stages: construction and evaluation of the artifact. The stage of construction, discussed in this paper, consists of the theoretical foundation and construction of the artifact, which is a method to evaluate airport design using code checking. For evaluation, it is necessary not only to create consistent rules that can be implemented in BIM evaluation software but also to create BIM models that are consistent during the assessment. This research shows the importance of creating a standardization process in the modeling of information during the development of airport designs in software authored by BIM, considering the export to an integrated IFC model. In view of the inexistence of manuals dealing with this subject in Brazil, it is possible to observe the potential that this approach has and may, shortly, benefit all teams of airport designs and analysts.
