Replication Data for: Barriers to aligning BIM and OIIE: A case study in the building construction industry

This dataset is derived from the BIM model of the Southern Queensland Correctional Precinct, a large-scale construction project in Southern Queensland. The dataset, represented in an Excel spreadsheet, is comprehensive, encompassing a wide range of attributes related to the distribution boards (DBs) used in the construction. Key attributes include physical dimensions, physical location, electrical parameters, and notably, OmniClass 21 and 23 classifications. These classifications are critical as they provide a structured means for classifying and categorizing the components of the built environment and are particularly useful in analyzing and managing data. The dataset is expansive, comprising of numerous entries detailing each distribution board used in the precinct's construction. The OmniClass classification scheme, in particular, is of high significance in this dataset as it is used to investigate the barriers between Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Open Indusry Interoperability Ecosystem (OIIE) in a research project context. The ultimate purpose of this dataset is to provide a detailed and organized source of data for research into the integration of BIM and OIIE, with a focus on identifying and overcoming the barriers that exist between these two systems in the current construction and building management environment.
