EUROPA-CENTER Suhr BIM Prize
Under the patronage of
Senator Dr. Dorothee Stapelfeld,
Senator for Urban Development and Housing of the free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg,
honours the professorship for
„Digital Integrated Process Management – Planning
Building Information Modeling (BIM)“
at the HafenCity University Hamburg,
in cooperation with the EUROPA-CENTER Uwe Heinrich Suhr Foundation,
is awarding the „EUROPA-CENTER Suhr BIM Prize“ for the second time this year.
The prize is awarded to Bachelor's or Master's theses in the field of BIM that deal with the following Topic:
"Resource efficiency and sustainability with Building Information Modelling (BIM), with particular focus on existing buildings"
Building Information Modelling enables consistent information management across the entire life cycle of a building on the basis of digital building models. In view of the challenges we face today in terms of sustainability and environmental protection, these aspects must also be taken into account in the planning, construction and operation of buildings.
This is increasingly being done on the basis of the BIM method, but primarily with a focus on new construction. In the case of existing projects, aspects of sustainability are still not dealt with enough and certainly not on the basis of digital, model-based processes. This also applies to the interactions between existing and new buildings at neighbourhood level and the associated effects.
With this in mind, this year's EUROPA-CENTER Suhr BIM Prize is specifically aimed at outstanding student research projects that use the BIM method to address sustainability issues for maintenance, remodelling or operation of buildings.
The following aspects can be addressed:
- Inventory recording and data transfer to digital building information models,
- Sustainability aspects, such as CO2 neutrality, resource efficiency, waste avoidance, etc.
- Integration of material properties in specialised and sub-models
- LCA-oriented modelling / integration of LCA values (Life-Cycle Assessment),
- Integration of real-time data into the model (use of sensor technology),
- Monument protection,
- Fire protection planning in existing buildings,
- Integration into a CAFM system (BIM2FM),
- Interaction between existing and new buildings
The endowed professorship for Digital Integrated Process Management focuses on the scientific examination of digital planning tools at the interface to practice: planning - construction - operation - overall coordination - data management. The consideration of processes and procedures in an interdisciplinary context plays an important role here, as does the change in job profiles associated with digitalisation.
Of central importance here is the practical teaching of the cooperative working methodology of Building Information Modelling (BIM) in research and teaching.
In this context, BIM is understood in accordance with the definition from the "Digital Planning and Construction" step-by-step plan of the Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure from December 2015:
„Building Information Modelling refers to a cooperative working methodology that uses digital models of a building to consistently record and manage the information and data relevant to its life cycle and exchange it in transparent communication between the parties involved or hand it over for further processing.“

Prizes were awarded to Bachelor's and Master's theses in the field of BIM (Building Information Modelling) that demonstrate the cooperative aspect of collaboration with BIM or the linking of individual work processes based on digital building data models. The prize winners include two HCU students from the Civil Engineering programme.
Bachelor's and Master's graduates from six universities in Germany, mainly specialising in civil engineering, applied for the prize. The works cover a very broad thematic spectrum: from specific issues in the application of BIM methodology in building construction and civil engineering projects to solutions for process automation and optimisation for life cycle assessments of buildings, through to business informatics approaches for the development of "business ecosystems" in architecture.
In order to recognise the diversity and quality of the contributions made, the jury decided to award two 3rd prizes and adjust the prize amounts accordingly:
