This morning meeting was meant to be practical and had a purpose: to help the architects to understand better one of the main topics within architecture and to help them to obtain a BIM know-how.
What was the end purpose? To answer the questions of the architects who want to settle a BIM process within their agency, and to remind them of the stakes of the BIM for their jobs. It is therefore more than just replying to questions such as “Am I doing it or not”. This morning meeting gave the key steps to take an action and made a dialogue possible.
Olivier Celnik and Manon Roger had considered eighteen questions as important: these questions structured the morning meeting.
The first part of the meeting was about how to settle the BIM within an agency. Here are a few examples of the questions asked:
The purpose of the second part of the morning meeting was to talk about the conduct of the project in BIM. Here are a few examples of the questions asked:
According to the MAF website, some distribution tables of the missions and terms have been established to allow the developer to lead their missions in the best conditions possible.
Then, the question of the moment where to start the BIM process was talked about…

Heinen is a security doors manufacturer. Heinen doors have always remained faithful to their primary objective: to provide protection while guaranteeing stability and robustness that enable heavy-duty use of the door.
They met Polantis at 2016 BIM World in Paris.
Heinen wanted to start making BIM objects (such as the BIM security doors), since there was a high request from the prescribers from countries close to France, such as the Netherlands.
It was therefore a real opportunity for the company, since they were still ahead of time compared to its rival companies, which did not have any BIM objects yet.
They chose to model 2 objects specifically adapted to prescription: the “swing doors Metal +” which has 1 and 2 sliding.
The Heinen swing doors are built on the same foundation and have the same characteristics. This basic door is called Metal+ and already has some assets, such as the Metal+ Inside technology.
The main characteristic of the Heinen security doors modeled in BIM is the fact that they were modelized as objects with adjustable settings, such as its dimensions.
These have specific fire classifications, some security standards and are available in 12 software formats on the platform. Therefore, they allow the final users to have the possibility to adapt their swing doors to their projects.
Through its BIM objects and to stand out from the competition, Heinen wants to offer to its prescribers some profits, such as the performance, the sustainability and the security aspect.

– You can also find Heinen’s objects directly on the manufacturer’s website right here.

The 2017 BIM Contest award ceremony was held on the 27th of March 2017. Polantis and « l’Ordre des architectes » ( our contest’s partners) both welcomed the guests and the construction professionals at the Récollets Chapel.
A 2nd Edition of BIM contest eagerly awaited
Last year, the first edition of the BIM Contest in partnership with the city Bobigny had been a real success. This year, Polantis – the organizing company – increased the difficulty by asking its candidates to work on the new city center of the municipality of Saint-Prix (95). Teams had to conceive a digital model of several residential and commercial buildings both integrated into a wider project articulated around the concept of the municipality’s urban centrality.
Altogether, 198 candidates gathered in 49 teams worked on this project. Among the 9 finalist teams, 6 were French and 3 were international (Serbian, Egyptian, Italian).
The grand-prize winner: the project Gardensity
Quentin Guillemot, Gabrielle Larmet and Hugo Janvier, architecture students at « L’Ecole Nationale Supérieure d’Architecture de Nantes » received their first-prize.
Jury’s comments: A strong engagement and a magnificent architecture of a « village in the village » which redefines and blurs the distinction between individual and collective dwellings.
The garden-piazza suggestion is reinterpreting the concept of the garden-city by adapting it to our age and to the expressed needs and desires of the town dwellers. The urban reinterpretation is astute: the urban island is not split into two, the street traffic is well-thought, the traffic lane becomes a green way which places pedestrians at the heart of the project. When it comes to the BIM method, the information matrix provided is complete and the project model is optimized and mastered. The jury’s members enjoyed “moving around in the digital model” while deliberating.
2nd Prize for the project e-COP
The second prize was won by Kévin Bailly, a young architect at Valode & Pistre who already won the BIM Contest first prize last year with Minh Minh Nguyen. Saint-Prix municipality particularly welcomed this project which better meets the architectural and urban expectations of the municipality. The team was particularly attentive to the municipality’s identity.
Jury’s comments: The landscaping work is in continuity with his project and the green roofs are used properly. The glass roofs and the variety of the slopes, forms and materials make you want to live in this city center characterized by its rich architecture. The use of columns is conveying an airy feeling. Finally, the particular attention to public areas makes you want to meet in this city center which fosters living-together.
3rd prize for Saint-BIO(SE) project
Thomas Teyssaire, Bruno Codron, Dany Ang et Matthieu Brossette from l’Atelier Juno won this 3rd prize.
Jury’s comments: A valiant effort of centrality in this project which has a lot of character. The pedestrian walkways were particularly well taken into consideration. The jury evoked the surprise effect of the promontory, the new perspective on each street corner, the pedestrian bridges leading to the project’s emblematic places. The attractive idea: the theater’s roof which becomes a boardwalk for the citizens, in the same vein as what was done for the Philharmonie.
The jury’s members were awarded for their deep analysis of the architectural projects submitted by the candidates. They were awarded for taking into account the BIM approach of each team thanks to their analysis of the provided digital models (on eveBIM of CSTB) as well as their precise analysis of the information matrix which was providing a high-level of information about the buildings.
A 3D cocktail
The cocktail following the ceremony was the occasion to admire the « BIM Contest » trophies which were printed in live by a 3D printer especially installed for this occasion. The three trophies received by the candidates were printed by Volumic Company, the constructor of the 3D printing situated in Nice. It was a hundred percent French printing, made from PLA, an entirely biodegradable plastic made from corn starch.

Spenle is a family business created in 1977 which develops and manufactures a wide range of engineered doors for the food industry, the professional kitchens, pharmaceuticals and hospitals. These doors are commercialized in France, European countries as well as in Africa and Asia.
This BIM project was organized with the CEO of the company, Mr. Spenle, as well as with Polantis teams. It aimed at increasing the brand visibility and at providing 3D models to its customers.
Spenle’s forward-thinking BIM approach was undertaken step by step with a selection of Spenle’s representative products.
Spenle’s doors are intended for different environments, specific constraints and defined criterions such as the opening system, the number of leaves, the sealing system… Seven types of products were thus modeled in 15 different CAD and BIM (Revit) formats.
Spenle’s doors available on Polantis platform are the following:
These references were modeled as parametric objects integrating dimensional minimum and maximum. They enable customers with the possibility to adapt the woodworks according to their projects and applications.
Beyond the dimensional aspect, Spenle’s products contain some functionalities and set ups for each product:
Alls specificities aim at proposing complete 3D models to the prescribers. It limits the margins of error within a project in terms of structural elements and affiliated woodworks.
Known for its know-how, high product quality, innovations, professionalism and responsiveness, Spenle wanted to position itself as a precursor by developing and providing 3D tools and solutions to its prescribers and customers.
