    The research achievement "Research on the Integration of Information Technology and Platform for Construction Engineering Based on BIM" won the second prize in the 2018 "Huaxia" Construction Technology Award. The research aims at solving the problems caused by the fragmentation for information in various stages of construction projects, the difficulties of multi-participant collaborative works. From the aspects of theory, technology, platform, and application, our group carried out systematic researches on the information technologies for construction engineering platform based on BIM. The BIM-based platform and multiple software system, developed with completely independent intellectual property, have been promoted and applied in a vast number of large-scale projects in multiple engineering fields such as buildings, highways, bridges, subways, and corridors. It improved the collaborative work efficiency and informatization management level for projects, and have significant social and economic benefits. In addition, another project that we participated in, "Research and Application of Modern Construction Technology for Super Large-scale Underground Ecological Water Plants in the Central City of Beijing" has won the third prize.

    The research achievement "BIM-based Information Integration and Application for Building Lifecycle", led by Professor Jianping Zhang, won the third prize of Science and Technology Progress in 2018 Beijing Science and Technology Awards ceremony on March 1st. The research team evolved the basic theories and standardized systems, established the structural systems and modeling methods, proposed the integrated management technologies, and developed platforms and software that had the complete independent intellectual property. The research achievements broke through the technical problems such as the unified description for engineering information, heterogeneous data integration, massive data mining and the multi-participant collaboration. These achievements contained 7 publishing books and industrial reports, 2 national standards, 1 invention patent and 25 software copyrights. Relevant achievements were applied to several major projects including the National Stadium in Beijing.
