Abstract
The construction industry in Ukraine faces a number of interconnected challenges, the most critical of which is the lack of a systematic process for generating and exchanging digital data. The introduction of Building Information Modeling (BIM) in the architectural and construction field requires the training of qualified specialists at all levels. This technology can only become fully functional and widespread with a sufficient number of professionals capable of utilizing it throughout all stages of a building’s life cycle.
The authors focus on identifying the tasks for improving architectural and construction education in the specific area of BIM – Heritage Building Information Modelling (HBIM). The relevance of their research is underscored by examples of the destruction of architectural monuments in Kyiv, Ukraine’s capital, because of military aggression and the unqualified handling of unique structures by stakeholders at all levels. Analysis of global and European experiences in incorporating BIM into education reveals that digital technologies in the preservation of historical monuments have distinct features. These technologies constitute a separate case of information modeling, influencing the professional training requirements.
HBIM requires ongoing expansion of scientific and technical research into the geometry of virtual models of historical objects. HBIM professionals must have expertise in heritage preservation legislation, a deep knowledge of architectural history, and an understanding of construction techniques and materials used by architects of the past.
The authors say that HBIM can be integrated into higher education by creating a digital information space, teamwork and project-based learning, geometric and mathematical training, and professional skills and competencies.
While digital technologies expand opportunities, they also demand continuous professional development. The authors differentiate between training new specialists and retraining professionals accustomed to traditional technologies.
The qualification assessment of HBIM specialists involves testing and practical assignments. Such an approach to certification facilitates the successful implementation of HBIM in the construction industry.
