Abstract

Management in the field of maintenance of petroleum concrete storage tanks is one of the most important management indicators that can prevent the creation of risks for people, the environment, and also economic and social effects. The main goal of this research is to use Building Information Modeling (BIM) in order to create the necessary platforms for maintenance management of petroleum concrete storage tanks in the form of Revit software. Modeling is based on the location of the concrete oil storage tank structure in the form of building information modeling against effective factors. In this way, with the use of BIM, management of maintenance and investigation of possible points of failure was addressed. Finally, the proposed flow chart of maintenance management based on building information modeling for the petroleum concrete storage tank studied in the present research was resulted. This maintenance model, which was proposed for petroleum concrete storage tanks, has the ability to quickly notify the structure control manager of the damage site and show it to the local staff to fix the defect. In fact, with the presented model, the speed of identification The damage in the tanks increases and the productive life of the structure also increases. Maintenance management based on building information modeling has resulted in predicting the points required for maintenance in order to prevent future damages and failures.
