2. Bachelor level 240 cu About 200 students -Structural engineering -Infra engineering -Construction management -Final thesis 15 cu BIM Structural Design 3 cu Master level 60 cu 20 students - 2 years -Final thesis 30 cu Using BIM in Civil Engineering 3 cu Three years work experience Construction management 210 cu 70 students 3,5 years Basics of BIM 3 cu Civil engineering education/BIM in SUAS Double degree 60 cu 20 russian students Basics of Tekla as a part of structural engineering course

3. Courses Construction management 215 cu –Basics of BIM 3 cu: The main target is to give general knowledge of BIM and learn to use one BIM- software (Archicad) Bachelor level –BIM Structural design 3 cu: The main target is to understand basic principles of BIM based structural design process and learn to use Tekla Structures software –Basics of Archicad is one part of basic CAD-course

4. Courses Master level 60 cu – Using BIM in Civil Engineering 3 cu: The main target is to understand total BIM process in Civil Engineering projects

5. Courses Double degree programme: – Basics of Tekla Structures as a part of structural engineering course

6. How ? Own teachers Teachers from companies Many BIM softwares are available for students, but only most common softwares are included in BIM courses

7. Future BIM will be integrated to ”normal” courses BIM tools will be normal tools BIM thinking will be normal thinking COBIM (Common BIM Requirements) is a new basement Basic tools will be educated as early as possible (Archicad, Tekla Structures) Also in infra education BIM will be important

8. Learning outcomes and BIM in different education levels ? Remembering Understanding Applying Analysing Evaluating Creating

9. Table 1. Levels of learning and verbs. LevelResponds to questionVerbs Remembering Can the student explain ideas and concepts? identify, list, define, name, present, write, reproduce, repeat, match, extract, organise Understanding Can the student use his or her knowledge in another familiar context? interpret, exemplify, summarise, judge, reformulate, report, find, name, classify, distinguish, paraphrase, explain Applying Can the student use his or her knowledge in another familiar context? practice, operate, apply, resolve, show, prepare, explain how, select, compute, modify Analysing Can the student identify the essential points? compare, break down, contrast, differentiate, divide, examine, categorise, analyse, evaluate, justify Evaluating Can the student make a justified assessment or conclusion? judge, conclude, compare, justify, explain, interpret, rate, comment CreatingCan the student create new products, ideas, viewpoints? design, devise, produce, suggest, develop, generate, derive, enlarge, modify

10. Final Thesis and BIM 2010-2011 Ville Leikas: Column joint designing and modeling, WSP Finland Jani Paappanen:Comparison of design in building information model and conventional structural,Pöyry Finland Oy Marko Hovi:Benefits of using building information modeling on construction site, Skanska Alexey Krishtalevich: Custom Components in Tekla Structures, Finnmap Consulting

11. Column joint designing and modeling

12. Context Steel joints Creating Tekla Structures- custom components Mathcad-calculation Creating the connection with Tekla Structures and Mathcad

13. Results Good calculation tool inside the Tekla Structures Connection with Tekla Structures and Mathcad is working.
