Peer Reviewed Journal via three different mandatory reviewing processes, since 2006, and, from September 2020, a fourth mandatory peer-editing has been added.
In this article, we will discuss how BIM modeling
technology can be used to improve the safety of people
and buildings in fire-fighting and panic. The objective of
this research is to construct an automation methodology
of the process of verification of fire compliance, which
allows the development of a computation tool more agile
and less prone to errors than the manual method
currently in use in the Fire Department of the State of
Minas Gerais (FDS-MG) in Brazil. The process of
creating a plug-in for a BIM environment, a prototype of
a computer system called BIMSCIP, will be described
and aims to verify the conformity of projects with Fire
Department standards. In this work, emphasis will be
placed on a particular technical instruction: technical
instruction number 06, which deals with the structural
safety of buildings in cases of fire. At the current stage
the prototype already reads the project and returns
consistent results.
