In the formal analysis of historical architecture, different geometries could be distinguished, from simple (walls, beams, columns, slabs, etc.) to more complex ones which could hardly be modelled through regular geometries (predominantly sculptural character). There are some complex geometry elements which could be processed anyway by means of mat...

... However, accurately representing the complex and irregular objects present in historic buildings can be challenging, and existing BIM libraries of parametric objects may need to be rebuilt and coded. Additionally, systems have been developed to map intelligent library objects onto digital or other survey data to overcome these challenges (Murphy et al. 2019(Murphy et al. , 2012Fai et al. 201;Oreni et al 2014;). A current limitation of HBIM is the lack of modelled parametric families available. ...

Using the interior of Russborough House, an Irish Neo-Classical Building as a case study, a prototype for a Historic Building Information (HBIM) workflow was developed from data capture using laser scanning and also including a WEB dissemination tool for the virtual representation of the building. Laser scanning was used for automated data collection which is now accepted as a standard part of surveying alongside other techniques for historic building recording. Because of time and resource limits, a set of sample elements were developed in HBIM and not the full building. The modelling of partial elements of the historic structure confirms the use of existing workflows and illustrate the possibilities for producing conservation documentation from both the point cloud and HBIM. This study proposes an addition to existing HBIM workflow based on the use of Faro-Web for dissemination and access to the point cloud and laser scan data with the addition of access to conservation and project drawings.
... The HBIM process usually involves three stages: initial data acquisition, constructing the BIM model from the processed data and using this model for the conservation and management of the heritage building [12]. The constructed HBIM model is not just an elaborate digital depository of the architectural and historical traits of heritage structures but also an invaluable mechanism for coping with heritage conservation hindrances [13]. HBIM offers as much information about the building as possible in order to enable effective strategic interventions for sustainable practices that ensure the authenticity of a facility based on cultural and historical heritage value. ...

3D scanning and modeling of cultural heritage enable the storage and management of a large volume of 3D data for various applications. This study presents the procedure for developing a Heritage Building Information Modeling (HBIM) model, specifically for the Campus of Mimar Sinan University of Fine Arts located in Istanbul - Fındıklı. This site was originally constructed in the 19th century as twin palaces for (Münire Sultan) and (Cemile Sultan). The paper provides a thorough explanation of the steps involved in acquiring data, generating a point cloud, and carrying out the subsequent stages of 3D modeling, resulting in the development of the HBIM model. Using data derived from digital photogrammetry and applying (Scan to BIM) approach, an HBIM model of the University Campus buildings was constructed. In addition, preexisting building survey drawings were employed to accurately represent the interior features of the building using (CAD to BIM) approach. Reality Capture software was utilized to transform images from a handheld camera and drone into a dense, colored point cloud. Subsequently, Autodesk Recap Pro was used to process this point cloud and to export it to Autodesk Revit. The integration facilitated the merging of point cloud and CAD plan data to create the HBIM model. The resulting parametric HBIM model allows documentation, sharing, and enhancement of extensive information important to architectural heritage. The study utilized photogrammetry as a methodology for data gathering, ensuring a high level of precision in surveys while also being more cost-effective than 3D laser scanning. Consequently, this study presents an economical and replicable approach suited for students and researchers facing constraints such as the unavailability of 3D laser scanning tools or budgetary constraints.
... In addition, with the development of computer technology, 3D scanning technology can be combined with GIS (Geographic Information System) and BIM (Building Information Modeling). Murphy Maurice proposed a new concept of HBIM (Heritage Building Information Modelling), which includes 3D laser scanning, point cloud data processing, parametric logic design, parametric modeling, and HBIM model value assessment [26]. The combination of HBIM and GIS can extend the research scope from the building scale to the city scale [27]. ...

Three-dimensional (3D) information technology has become an important technical support in digital heritage preservation practice. However, due to the lack of systematic quantitative research, it is difficult to form a comprehensive understanding of the historic and cultural districts, from macro to micro. Our study aimed to establish a systematic 3D spatial diagnostic framework combining 3D scanning and SPSS data descriptive analysis and regression analysis for historic and cultural districts to promote sustainable historic and cultural area preservation. Taking Zhongshan Street in Qi County as an example, data statistical analysis was carried out on morphological feature data from the macro level of the district, the meso level of architecture, and the micro level of elements. The research conclusion shows that at the macro level the street form continues the main features of a traditional alley spatial skyline, height–width ratio, and sectional symbol language. At the meso level, the architecture reveals various periods of style in terms of the facade width and mathematical relationship between traditional architectural facades. At the micro level, architectural detailing explains the main reasons for the recent new construction being inconsistent with the historic and cultural district appearance. This quantitative diagnostic method can accurately analyze the current characteristics of historic and cultural districts and easily provide effective suggestions for follow-up preservation methods.

Protecting and enhancing inherited assets is a duty of every age; ours requires disclosure through the services of the interconnected network, the only one, to date, capable of reaching a wide audience and with it attracting adequate economic resources for the implementation of programs. In keeping with the international definition of "Cultural Heritage", the paper describes the methodology that guided the construction in 3D of the monumental building sculpted in the iconographies between 52 and 62 AD on the marble slab now preserved at the archaeological museum of Perugia. An informative workflow on what has been collected is proposed to then discuss the potential of its uses. The focus lies in particular on the possibility of the model to act as an interoperable collector to compare the reconstructive hypotheses.The final objective looks at the opportunity to create multimedia, multimodal and cross modal collaboration spaces to remedy aspects that, by affecting a wider audience of users, encourage socio-economic policies.

Chapter
The Solimene factory is a work by the architect Paolo Soleri built in 1955, considered one of the best expressions of the Italian “Organic” movement and today protected under the Italian Code of Cultural Heritage and Landscape. For educational purposes, the advocated restoration intervention, it attracted renewed interest upon the demise of its designer. Based on TLS data acquisition and Building Information Modeling, this study investigates the opportunity to implement interventions on modern architectures with interoperable processes and data integration. The present paper aims to reconcile two fundamental but opposite aspects of information modeling of historical buildings (H-BIM): the formal accuracy and the identification of standard properties for component parameterization, by presenting the creation of exclusive oriented objects.
... " [5]. Moreover, Murphy [6] outlined BIM as "the assembling of parametric objects which represent building components within a virtual environment", and this can be used to model and represent the entire building. The "parametric objects" are described according to parameters, some of which are user-defined and others relate to the position in a 3D environment relative to other "shape objects". ...
... Moreover, according to A. Baik [8], Heritage BIM has been defined as "a digital representation of the current situation of the physical and functional characteristics of heritage buildings with respect to any modifications, restoration and maintenance during the heritage building lifecycle." The Heritage BIM technique has been employed in several projects in European countries, such as in [6,[9][10][11][12][13][14]. The core subject of these pieces of research and projects was to deliver intelligent information [10], as well as to offer "as-built" digital 3D models [15] to be used for different purposes. ...
... Furthermore, based on the scanned surface, each of these points has "x, y, and z coo dinates". According to Murphy [6], the "laser ranger is directed towards an object by r flective surfaces that are encoded", and hence, "their angular orientation can be dete mined for each range measurement." According to Thomson and Boehm [23], point clou data can be designated to be LoD 0 (the absolute minimal level of detail), from which mo data-rich abstractions can be shaped in order to be modeled to higher levels of detail (i. ...

Today, moving from a two-dimensional environment to a more advanced interactive three- dimensional (3D) environment in the industries of architecture, engineering, and construction has become one of the most significant topics of interest. This is due to several primary advantages that the 3D environment can offer. Building information modeling (BIM) can be used as a highly advanced system to present a desired reality in a 3D interactive environment accompanied with 3D reality captured data, such as the point cloud data. As such, these 3D environments can be employed for more advanced uses, such as virtual reality and augmented reality technologies (VR and AR). Recently, BIM has been employed in the context of heritage (known as HBIM, or Heritage Building Information Modeling) for different purposes, such as to provide as-built information with the ability to interact with the end user and uploading information (e.g., historical photographs, documents about materials, or any past restoration projects) into the BIM model. This research will focus on providing an interactive rich virtual 3D model for heritage management. This virtual environment can be employed in cultural tourism and used for the abovementioned purposes. The research project has been adopted in the case of the Zainal Historical House (Bayt Zainal) located in the Historic District of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. This house is described as one of the significant historical buildings in the historic district. The key aim for selecting this case study is to bridge the gap in architectural knowledge regarding these heritage buildings and their hybrid structural systems (i.e., integration of steel or concrete with the traditional “Mangbi” stone technique).
... Recently, employing BIM into the heritage field has been introduced as a new method known as Heritage BIM (HBIM), which can be considered as the fundamental stage toward the BIM workflow for retrofit and reconstruction tasks (Ebim, 2015). This method has been used in small numbers of projects worldwide, such as in the research of Fai et al. (2011a), Murphy (2012), Oreni (2013), and Penttilä et al. (2007). The main objective of these research projects was to provide intelligent data (S. ...
Book
The main aim of this book is to develop and explore the value of new innovative digital content to help satisfy UNESCO’s World Heritage nomination file requirements. Through a detailed exploration of two BIM case studies from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, the book uniquely connects the use of Heritage BIM to the documentation methods used by UNESCO and demonstrates how this provides a contribution to both countries with heritage sites and UNESCO as an organisation. The research and practical examples in the book seek to address both the lack of a comprehensive method of submitting a nomination file to UNESCO and the lack of authentic engineering information in countries where extensive heritage sites exist. It looks at answering the following questions: How can Heritage Building Information Modelling (HBIM) be used to better maintain, protect, and record the updated information of historical buildings? How can HBIM provide innovation in creating the missing information for the assignment of UNESCO's World Heritage status? What additional value can a sustainable update of HBIM data provide for such sites? How can HBIM improve the cultural value of heritage buildings in the short, medium, and long term, as well as provide a better future for historical buildings? This book will be useful reading for researchers and practitioners in the areas of heritage conservation, archaeology, World Heritage nomination, HBIM, digital technology and engineering, remote sensing, laser scanning, and architectural technology.
... The use of BIM in new projects has been a regular practice for several years (Eastman et al., 2011). In recent years, BIM has been extensively employed for academic and research proposal (Murphy, 2012). However, finding BIM applications in the restoration of buildings with historical value than in contemporary ones is less common (Volk et al., 2014). ...
... Despite many BIM and H-BIM researches being analyzed, they are mostly focused on the geometrical description of the 'as-built' configuration of heritage building through laser scanning and photogrammetry or on the organization of the data sources. Few examples of H-BIM in combination with structural FEM analysis were found (Murphy, 2012;Barazzetti et al., 2015;Chi et al., 2015;Dore et al., 2015;Oreni et al., 2017) and even fewer considering the heritage constructive phases for the structural assessment of the building (Crespi et al., 2015). An extensive review on the H-BIM can be found in the work of Bruno et al. (2018). ...

Knowledge is fundamental to understand the key characteristics of a heritage building. Furthermore, constructive analysis of a historical construction is central to research into its structural behavior. This work aims to increase the knowledge level of a historical construction by the understanding of the constructive evolution through Historical-Building Information Modeling (H-BIM) workflow. The research proposes a multidisciplinary approach applicable to the field of historical constructions, which is resumed in the followings steps: historical-critical analysis, material and soil characterization, data organization through H-BIM, qualitative static and dynamic structural analysis, validation of the results. The building of Quartel da Tropa – located in Florianópolis, Brazil – is used as a practical case study to show how the proposed research can be adapted to historical buildings. Such an impressive eighteen-century masonry construction is the largest troop barracks among Brazilian fortifications. The proposed approach allows the creation of a structural model from the architectural model with fewer uncertainties and less simplification, improving the knowledge path of historical constructions and its structural assessment. The historical-critical analysis and the H-BIM allow managing and presenting of the information useful to the understanding of the constructive phase evolution of a historical building.
