Digital Twins in the Built Environment offers a new, comprehensive, systematic and clear view of digital twin development in the architecture, engineering, construction and facilities management sectors. It will help you to uncover the implementation and development of digital twins work and understand how to operate and maintain digital twin assets, buildings and cities.Using a structured approach, the book explains how to create and use digital twins effectively including principles, system architecture, data structure and creation methods for the five layers needed (data acquisition, data transmission, digital model, data/model integration, and services). This is underpinned with real life cases studies of digital twin implementation at asset, building and city levels, revealing every angle that a digital twin can take.This book will coverthe definitions and principles of digital twinsoverviews of typical digital twin implementationssystem architecture of digital twinsfive layers of the developed architecture: data acquisition, transmission, digital modelling, data/model integration, and servicesextension with other technologiespractical cases at asset, building and city levels.This book is an essential read for built environment professionals including asset owners, consultants, facility managers, contractors, designers, policymakers and researchers.

This insightful book presents a comprehensive understanding of the new technologies impacting digital built asset and facility management. Informative and accessible, it illustrates how the concepts, principles, strategies and applications of digital built asset management can be improved and implemented in real-life practice.Bringing together experts in this rapidly developing area, Digital Built Asset Management outlines the fundamentals of the field and explores key aspects such as outsourcing, procurement and maintenance management. Chapter authors discuss digital innovation and its effects on asset management, in particular the efficacy of smart building practices. Highlighting a diverse range of perspectives on asset management, the book concludes by proposing a framework for the future development of digital built asset management, underpinned by a critical analysis of the evolution of technologies such as building information modeling, the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence and blockchain.This book is an invaluable resource for students and researchers specializing in digital built asset management, construction management, project management and surveying. Its pairing of theory and real-life practice will also be of use to facility managers and professionals in the trade.
