What problem does it solve?

BIM projects often struggle with inconsistent data models and unclear relationships across physical, semantic, process, and document layers. This skill provides a principled approach to designing and governing BIM ontologies and schema rules.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Ontology layering: define Physical, Semantic, Process, and Document layers with clear node types and relationships.
• • Schema governance: establish naming conventions, constraints, and validation rules to ensure data integrity.
• Use Case: model a new architectural element by specifying Element, Category, Type, and related Tasks and Costs, then validate graph consistency.

Quick Start

Start by drafting the Element node schema and a few core relationships in the ontology, then run a validation pass to verify constraints.
