Loin

The document discusses the evolution and definitions of key BIM terms such as LOD (Level of Detail), LOA (Level of Accuracy), and LOIN (Level of Information Need). It highlights the challenges in standardizing these terms within the industry and emphasizes the importance of clarity in information requirements for better project outcomes. The LOIN framework is presented as a solution to improve collaboration, decision-making, and efficiency in BIM processes.

Find out how
we came to those.
Evolution of LOD, LOA, LOIN.

Some of those are "outdated".

It will take you about


3 min to get the core
and understand LOXs.
Key Terms

1 LOD Level od Detail (Geometry)


Since 1980s

2 LOD Level od Development


(Geometry + Info)
Since 2005

LOG Level of Geometry

LOI Level of Information

3 LOA Level od Accuracy


Since 2010s

1 LOD Level od Detail

It all started with graphical 3D modeling in 1980s.

Goal:
Optimize performance and complexity of models.

Purpose:
Geometric description of Models.

1 LOD Level od Detail

LOD in BIM introduced in 2005

Origin:
Defined requierements for element geometry.

Purpose:
Model geometry is used for calucaltion of
quanitities

Evolution:
AEC starts using BIM more widely,
which leads to need for standardisation

Great solution at the time, but was not that


simple:

Different Inrterpretations of LOD levels in


industry
Misalignment between wat was asked and
wat was delivered
Difficulty quantifing the actual information
content at different and each LOD lvl
1 LOD Level od Detail
Takes:
more time
more commitment
more resources
more cost

Great solution at the time, but was not that simple.

Different Inrterpretations of
LOD levels in industry

Misalignment between wat was asked


and wat was delivered

Difficulty quantifing the actual information


content at different and each LOD lvl
2 LOD Level od Development

LOD 100: there is a chair


LOD 200: there is a chair that has nominal space
requirement of 450x450
LOD 300: there is a chair with arm rests and wheels
LOD 400: manufacturer and model number.
LOD 500: manufacturer and model number,
supplier, date purchased
2 LOD Level od Development

100 300 350 400

Now we combined other aspects into these LODs such as:


components
information requirements
purpose
2 LOD Level od Development

Limitations:

Too much of information into single


numerical scale. Very difficult to
precisley define and communicate the
required lvl of detail.

LOD framework lacks flexibility. Project


teams often have to choose a LOD lvl
that do not match their needs, leading
to over or under modeling

Subjective nature of LODs definition -


stakeholders interpretate the same LOD
levels differently.
3 LOA Level od Accuracy

Focus on measured or represented accuracy of objects.

Capturing Data Quality:


Focus on the precision of geometry

Quantifying Uncertanty:
Clear guidance fror acssessing accuracy

Better Decision Making:


Now you can better understand if you can prefabricate it,
or if suits your needs for execution

Accuracy

When we go from 100-500,


at lvl 500 for example, we do not necesserily need
additional accuracy or geometry.

On the other hand we may want more information.


4 LOIN Level of Information Need

The Level of Information Need (LOIN)


standard is reshaping BIM.

Here's why:

Clarifies Requirements:
Specifies exact information needed at each project phase.

Ensures Coordination:
Enhances collaboration and reduces rework.

Supports Decision-Making:
Provides detailed data for informed choices.

Improves Efficiency:
Streamlines project delivery and facility management.

We do not need same amount od data,


documentation and geometry at the same time.

LOIN makes sure of that we have


what we need when we need it.
Let’s learn BIM together.
Hope you guys have
an awesome day.
