Digital-Twin-Based Operation and Maintenance Management Method for Large Underground Spaces

Large underground spaces are complex and huge, with problems such as fragmented data that cannot be shared, outdated management methods, and high operation and maintenance costs. The digitization of building information and the use of digital twin technology can effectively improve the efficiency of building operation and maintenance. Using information technology to build a digital-twin-based operation and maintenance management system, the huge and discrete data and equipment system information are effectively integrated and explored for application. First, we analyze the shortcomings of the traditional delivery and operation and maintenance methods and introduce the necessity of a new method of operation and maintenance management based on digital twin; then, we divide the operation and maintenance information of the construction project into four major categories of spatial information and eight major categories of equipment information and complete the coding work, and the categorized data serve as the data basis for operation and maintenance; second, we develop a digital twin operation and maintenance management platform based on the operation and maintenance data of BIM; finally, we carry out case validation for the three major constructions. Finally, case validation is carried out for three major buildings and a large underground space and the practical application shows that the operation and maintenance management system based on digital twin technology provides technical guarantee for decentralized information and system integration management and the information management quality and efficiency of the operation and maintenance process are effectively improved. Through the practice of summarizing the experience, which is worth learning, we aim to create a large underground space operation and maintenance management method to provide a reference.
