The BIM Collaboration Format (BCF) is a structured file format suited to issue tracking with a building information model. BCF is designed primarily for defining views of a building model and associated information on collisions and errors connected with specific objects in the view. The BCF file format allows users of different BIM software, and/or different disciplines to collaborate on issues with the project.[1]. The use of the BCF format to coordinate changes to a BIM are an important aspect of OpenBIM.
The format was developed by Tekla and Solibri and later adopted as a standard by buildingSMART.[2] Most major BIM modelling platforms support some integration with BCF, typically through plug ins provided by the BCF server vendor.
Although BCF was originally conceived as a file base there are now many implementations using the server based collaborative workflow described in the bcfAPI, including an Open Source implementation[3] as part of The Open Source BIMcollective.
Research work has been done in Denmark looking into using BCF for a broader range of information management and exchange in the AEC sector[4].
Supporting software
BCF is supported natively by modeling software Vectorworks, ArchiCAD, Tekla Structures, Quadri, DDS CAD [1] as well as BIMcollab ZOOM[2], BIMsight[3], Solibri[4], Navisworks, simplebim[5], Vectorworks. Standalone BCF plugins include BCF Manager[6], BCFier[7]. Cloud services offering BCF based issue tracking include BIMcollab[8], BIMtracker[9], bimsync[10] and OpenProject[11].
