This chapter provides the basics for all those who want to prepare for the buildingSMART International “Professional Certification – Foundation”. It provides an easy introduction to the topic of openBIM<\/em>. All basic terms for openBIM <\/em>are explained here. All those involved in an openBIM project<\/em> can therefore use a common language with the same terminology. This chapter thus provides the basis for Chapter 3<\/a> and Chapter 4<\/a>, which deal with topics for practical implementation. The knowledge imparted in the following chapters also supports the preparation for the buildingSMART “Professional Certification – Practitioner” exam(openBIM <\/em>Management and openBIM<\/em> Coordination). Important abbreviations are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
