73. Digital Twin
Stable section ID: S05-CON-015-SECTION-74 · 15 content blocks
A Digital Twin is the continuously maintained digital engineering representation of an identified physical Component, Assembly, system, Building, or Built Asset.
A Digital Twin may represent:
geometry and spatial relationships;
authoritative configuration;
component identities and versions;
current operational state;
sensor and telemetry information;
inspection and maintenance history;
lifecycle events;
performance indicators;
known defects, limitations, and uncertainties.
Within System05, the Building BIOS provides the authoritative configuration baseline from which the Building Digital Twin is generated and maintained. Verified physical events, inspections, replacements, and telemetry may update the Twin through controlled processes.
A Digital Twin is more than a BIM model, dashboard, simulation, or document repository. It maintains a traceable relationship with the identified physical asset.
Alternative scenarios and simulations shall be distinguished from the authoritative current-state Twin.
Where the Digital Twin conflicts with verified physical reality, physical reality shall control and the discrepancy shall be recorded and resolved. The Digital Twin shall never conceal unknown, stale, inconsistent, or unverified states.
