BIM Resources

This resource has been developed to outline the financial benefits at both a project level and organisation level when BIM is utilised effectively.

The Building Information Modelling (BIM) Return on Investment (ROI) Paper is presented in two parts:

  • Core Report – a concise summary of the investigation into BIM ROI and its findings, providing a succinct case for future BIM investment across AHIA jurisdictions.
  • Detailed Report – technical report providing details of the approach and methodology, assumptions and limitations, detailed analysis, findings and insights, case studies, recommendations, stakeholder engagement, and supporting documents.

Due to an ongoing review and update of the Revit model, the currently published version does not include the latest Standard Component updates published from 2022 to present.  This will be updated as soon as possible and we apologise for any inconvenience.

The downloads below include a single Revit file and matching IFC file containing all currently modelled Standard Components available for download for use by designers.  This resource represents the greatest innovation and upgrade of the AusHFG information.  Through provision of this information, AHIA has responded to the needs of the industry and is supporting the use of Building Information Modelling throughout the health infrastructure sector.  To assist with use of the Revit model content, the model's shared parameter file and notes on use are also provided below.  To assist with use of the IFC model content, notes for it are also provided, which include guidance for non-designers wishing to access the IFC model through commonly available viewers.

The AusHFG Item Control Schedule lists all the items in the AusHFG item library, along with their current names and codes, plus previous names and codes where applicable.  If the item is in use in a Standard Component and also modelled in the AusHFG Revit resource, the Item Control Schedule identifies its Revit family and type name.  

The Item Control Schedule also provides information about documentation conventions used when managing the AusHFG item library, along with other details about its use in conjunction with other AusHFG resources.
