BS 1192:2007+A2:2016 Collaborative production of architectural, engineering and construction information. Code of practice
BS 1192 provides a ‘best-practice’ method for the development, organization and management of production information for the construction industry, using a disciplined process for collaboration and a specified naming policy.
It provides the template for common naming conventions and approaches to collaborative working for use in architecture, engineering and construction. It also facilitates efficient data use in facilities management.
The principles for information sharing and common modelling outlined in this standard underpin the BIM Level 2 standards and are equally applicable to building and civil projects.
BS 1192 supports PAS 1192-2:2013 and PAS 1192-3:2014, and the use of both PASs depends on BS 1192. When the PASs were written it was recognized that BS 1192 would have to be updated to be brought into line with them.
