Abstract: In order to satisfy the requirements of the construction management and the digital transfer
of the new lines of Guangzhou Metro, Guangzhou Metro Group Co., Ltd. cooperates with Tsinghua
University, and then advanced 4D construction management concept was first introduced to rail
transit construction projects. We have studied a variety of mainstream modeling software
compatibility and integration of information technology, and have established BIM-based rail transit
4D technology application architecture and information model structure by studying multi-platform
information management model, which apply to the actual construction management of Hedong
station of the posterior segment in Guang-Fo line. In addition, the system implements the
electromechanical equipment information management process based on two-dimensional code, the
“pressing the pin” quality and safety management based on 3D models, as well as the schedule
management with the work order as the core. Meanwhile, to better promote the landing application system, we studied and complied the BIM standard application guidelines. The application of this
system shows that the research contributes to the information sharing among project participants,
multi-disciplinary collaboration, shorten the construction period and reduce operating costs, which
greatly improve the efficiency through the process of the subway construction and the information
management level.
