1. Which of the following does ISO 19650 Part 3 address?

* ISO 19650-1: Concepts and principles


* ISO 19650-2: Delivery phase of assets
* ISO 19650-3: Operational phase of assets (i.e., assets-in-use)
* ISO 19650-4: Information exchange
* ISO 19650-5: Security-minded approach to information management
* Answer: c) Assets-in-use

2. Complete the statement by choosing the correct answer. Information should be exchanged...
* Looking at ISO 19650-4:2022, section 5.1.3 "Implementation" states: "The information provider shall
plan the exchange of information... and exchange it conforming to the agreed governance...: when the
information is in a coherent state... early in a delivery stage or operational trigger event and often,
when changes have been made."
* Answer: d) Early in a delivery stage or operational trigger event

3. Which of the following is clash detection an aspect of?


* Clash detection is a process to identify geometric interferences between different models or elements.
This ensures that the design is coordinated and free from such conflicts.
* In ISO 19650-4:2022, section 7.5 "Consistency" mentions checking for "spatial, physical and process
consistency including the absence of duplication and conflicts such as overlaps or gaps." Clash
detection directly addresses such conflicts.
* Answer: d) Consistency

4. Where is COBie defined?


* COBie (Construction Operations Building information exchange) is a data format.
* ISO 19650-4:2022, Annex A.1 (Open schema), mentions: "b) COBie[12] for built asset orientated
equipment and impact handover;"
* The bibliography [12] points to: "COBie https://www.nationalbimstandard.org/files/NBIMS-
US_V3_4.2_COBie.pdf"
* The National BIM Standard - United States (NBIMS-US) is developed by the National Institute of
Building Sciences (NIBS).
* Answer: c) NIBS NBIMS v3

5. Which of these might be excluded from the revision process?


* ISO 19650-4:2022, section 6.4 "Exceptions" states: "The review process may exclude information
containers that are not subject to revision or change as long as the quality, naming and associated
metadata are checked by the information receivers. The information reviewers shall consider exempting
the following cases: ... photographs, scans and video material."
* Answer: d) Photographs

6. According to ISO19650, Whose responsibility is information management?


* ISO 19650-1:2018, clause 4.1 states: "Information management according to this document shall be
undertaken by the project team." The "project team" is defined as comprising the Appointing Party and
all Lead Appointed Parties and their Appointed Parties. Thus, it's a shared responsibility.
* Answer: d) Appointing and appointed parties

7. The UK National Annex specifies the classification of which of the following?


* The UK National Annex to ISO 19650-2 recommends the use of Uniclass 2015 as the classification
system. Uniclass 2015 includes tables for Complexes, Entities, Activities (Processes),
Spaces/Locations, Elements/Functions, Systems, and Products.
* Answer: a) Products (While Uniclass covers more, "Products" is a distinct and fundamental category
within it relevant to information deliverables).

8. Which of the following is subject to localization?


* Localization refers to adapting standards or practices to specific national or regional requirements.
National Annexes are a key mechanism for this.
* Classification systems (like Uniclass in the UK, or other national systems) are a prime example of
something that is localized or where a specific local system is mandated/recommended.
* Answer: a) Classification

9. In COBie, which of the following is spatial, NOT physical?


* COBie worksheets include:
* Facility: Overall project (can be seen as a spatial boundary but represents the physical asset)
* Floor: A horizontal division within a facility; primarily a spatial locator.
* Space: A defined volume; spatial.
* Zone: A collection of spaces; spatial/functional.
* System: A collection of physical components.
* Component: A physical item.
* A Floor itself is a spatial definition rather than a tangible physical object like a component.
* Answer: d) Floor

10. Complete the statement by choosing the correct answer. Interoperability is about
information's
* Interoperability is the ability of different systems, devices, applications, or products to connect
and communicate (exchange and use data) in a coordinated way, without special effort from the user.
* Answer: a) Communication

11. Which of the following is not a CDE rule?


* CDE rules typically relate to the structure and management of the Common Data Environment.
* a) Constant information container naming: This is a key CDE rule (for unique identification, per ISO
19650-1, 12.1).
* b) Read-only except for author: This relates to access control within the WIP state, a CDE principle.
* d) Using status/suitability metadata: Essential CDE rule for workflow (ISO 19650-1, 12.1).
* c) Using open standards: While highly recommended for interoperability and often a project
requirement (see ISO 19650-4, Introduction and Annex A), the CDE mechanism itself (its states,
naming conventions, status codes) could theoretically function with proprietary formats if a project
chose to (though it would limit benefits). The use of open standards is more about the nature of the
information being exchanged to ensure wider usability, rather than a defining operational rule of the
CDE itself like naming or status.
* Answer: c) Using open standards (This is a best practice for information content and exchange, not
a foundational rule of the CDE workflow mechanism in the same way as the others.)
